Did he open the bag too?

 

[weasel]

Another reason never to have kids! :lol: (Insert your own funny)

 

[ianv72]

yes spoons , i found the bag on the floor of his bedroom , then i found the cardboard leg inserts , then i passed out

 

[gustie]

kids eh lol

 

[Bollux]

Weasel you must have had this before mate!

 

[**Delboy75**]

Thats a shitter mate, my little lad opened a han hoth baggie a while ago and i was livid lol.

It was the last figure i needed for a 10 pk mailer :evil:

On a different note do you still have the baggie? cus ev9's come in opened baggies too, not all were sealed.
I have an ev9 in a opened baggie, but the baggie has big slits in it, and i've been looking for a replacement :mrgreen:

Ouch! That's painful :shock:

Bugger, i feel for ya mate.
I had a lucky escape recently when one of the dogs jumped up on my desk & attacked some loose figures i had on there. Luckily she only chewed the beaters, & left half a dozen complete minty figures alone. I guess she has an eye for a good figure too!

My son took a mint he-man Mantenna figure off the card and came running up to show me....needless to say i smiled and cried all at the same time, he looked so happy with it...the little ****.

 

[ianv72]

some more nightmares there guys ,

del , sorry mate , i sold her as she was , bag an all for £40 on evilbay , not a bad result considering , still pissed me off though cos she was part of jabba's dungeon i had , with a sealed barada and amanaman too

 

[**Delboy75**]

Not a bad price at all mate considering.

My little lad is only 2, so he doesn't really understand they are not for playing with lol.
I now have a small lot of loose figs i let him hold when i get my baggie collection out, it seems to work.
When he opened my han i was taking pics of the complete mailer, so i was lucky in a way he didn't open one of the rarer more expensive baggies! :shock:

 

[ianv72]

twas my own fault , ( says the mrs ) shoulda locked the cabinet , , i bought my lad a few play worn figures to kill , but that doesn't stop him gazing into the cabinet , just waiting for the day to come when i forget to lock it

heres the little culprit , just biding his time

I was away recently on a Stag do in Amsterdam. On the same weekend my girlfriend hosted a Hen do with all of the partners.

ONe of them in particular does not understand my collecting habits and threatened to open my cabinets and take all of my chewies off the cards and dress them up as various things like - ballett chewie, red riding hood chewie, barbie chewie etc etc etc.

I told her that i had left the keys in the home safe and that i had the only key for that a couple of hundred miles away in Ansterdam.

we all spoke to our respective partners on a very hungover Sunday morning and the story came out that they had managed to get the safe open and a few of my precious cheiwes had been dressed up. Luckily i had lied and the keys were stashed away in a drawer somewhere else in the house.

Although deep down i knew this old friend of mine would not do anything to them, and my girlfriend woudl never let anyone near the collection - i still went straight to the collecting room as soon as i got home and to my releif all was ok.

As for the baggie mate - that really sucks. Another reason i will probably never have kids. I have a niece and nephew and when they come to visit i make sure the cabinets are locked. They will stand there for ages with their mucky hands all over the cabinets (they are all glass). It takes bloody ages after they have gone cleaning it.

That sounds like a real **** thing to do - regardless if she was just doing it for laughs to wind you up. She must have known they were important to you (certainly your g/f would have known), and also had an incling of their monetary value. What if she'd broken one of them... She might not understand your obsession with this hobby, but hell, everyone has interests others don't understand - my missus insists on filling every window-ledge with bloody orchids!

She deserves a good kicking (metaphorically of course).

 

[stevemac1976]

I knew she would not do anything. I know where she lives and i woudl have stolen her beloved mini convertable and burnt her house down (metaphorically speaking of course!!! :twisted: )
