Posted this previously, but pics went weird.

These were from the U.S., and are in super condition, again for my lads collection of childhood toys, he loved the Gummi Bears ( TBH I had an excuse to watch them as well with him when he was a little un ! )

I'm sure all ewok lovers out there will like this pic :lol: :lol:

I said it last time so I'll say it again.... I used to love theses guys bouncing here and there and everywhere on a Sunday morning.
Quality!
 
I've been putting together a games room this year and currently have 5 Nintendos and 2 playstations all hooked up to a nice big tv :D
This is my latest edition, something I've wanted since 1999.

I have a boxed and working Super NES... I bought it with a view to set it up and play it, but I think I'm taking the piss enough with my collecting room! I must make an effort to sell it soon; save me looking on eBay.. any idea what they go for?
 
No idea mate, all the consoles I have except the dreamcast I bought new and hung on to. Edd might have a better idea but if it's all there and not yellowed I would be expect a decent price.
 
Nice console Scott. We've done something similar in our games room. N64, GameCube, mega drive and PS2 hooked up to a smallish tv.

Very pleased to add these two pieces to my Action Man collection. They are the resin pieces used to create the steel moulds for Palitoy in Hong Kong

Hate to think what they would cost if they were Star Wars - just over £115 for the pair as they are Action Man :shock:

Nice to own something like this, really nice couple of pieces of history to go with your AM collection. I so have to resist dipping my toe into this area of toy collecting as I have such found memories of playing with AM growing up, it came for me before SW hit.

cheers Ian, the more that SW goes up in price the more appealing AM is. I just wish it was a bit smaller for display purposes :)

Superb items!
My brother has a bunch of Action Force preproduction items, they're also dirt cheap and pretty easy to get hold of, the Star Wars tax is very painful...
 
Still got my Cassius Clay figure.
I remember as a kid him going several rounds with the Lone Ranger.

Love both of those figures - especially Rambo 8)

Back int he day kids really shouldn't have known who Rambo was as it was a 15 film, a funny choice for a toy when you think about it

Indeed, I had toys of Gremlins when I was a nipper, again another 15.

Love the Rambo and Clay figures, great pieces.
 
Love the Cassius Clay and Rambo figure, is the Cassius Clay Mego? I've seen a lot of the Rambo figures with green heads so it looks like yours has held up well.

Yes mate, Mego Corp 1975.
Think I got it around 1979 give or take.

I thought it was but don't remember seeing that one around at the time. I had the Fist Fighter Spiderman around 78-79 and loved that thing so much, I've never seen an opened example of the card back up for sale but would love one (knowing I'll never be able to reach the heights needed to buy a sealed one).

Love Mego and managed to complete my loose UK Fist Fighter run last year.

Just took a photo of my American NTSC SNES collection so thought I'd share it here. All new/sealed. Of course I have one in the living room to play too :)

Absolutely superb Edd. I've never seen that cleaning kit before.
I always thought it was strange though that the Americans decided to change the case from the sexy super famicon lines
 
Yeah it's very unusual in that sense, not many consoles had a country specific design. I believe it was changed because they thought the Jap/PAL one looked too kiddy. For the same reason American games usually have more adult case designs.
 
Seeing all of these consoles is great, 8) I remember having to buy them as they came out for my son, from Spectrum plus 3 through ( with built in tape) to Master system, mega drive, Nes ,SNES and on and on...

Picked up this recently but think the insert is incorrect, but the Aston is in great nick and fully functional, has the little man that ejects as well.
Remember having this as a kid :D

Love seeing all the box fresh SNES goodies Ed and I've always been a big fan of the James Bond Aston Mike. I've thought of picking one of these cars up for years now and did get the juniors version of it recently when it was rereleased for the JB anniversary. One day I'll get one to go with my Corgi Batmobile.

As said this really is a highlight thread for4 me also.

I'm more than a little jealous of that, best console I ever owned and should never have traded it in
 
Here's another one from my loft.
Haven't tried him to see if he still works.

Forgot to say that I live the Spiderman, I've never seen one of these working but it's great that you kept hold of the box, really nice!
