Very nice selection in the old cabinet and always nice to see a bump for this thread.

Great stuff, never had any interest in Transformers, but they are tempting, they look superb in the original packaging, I keep looking at a Bumblebee...must resist!

He was only £15 as well, not the most exciting for many but one of two I had as a kid

Thanks for the comment on the T-**** and can't believe you picked the Transformer up for £15, an absolute steal!

Yep, the Matchbox was even better. MIB, made in 80 or 81 and only £1. Really pleased.

£1! Now that really is a steal, at least there's hope for us all in the vintage non SW world.

Absolutely, much like me it's been around 36 years and is worth no more now than it was originally :lol: :lol:

Got this wee guy for Christmas from my wife
I loved him back in the day, so many cool accessories including a GLOW IN THE DARK SWORD!!!!!

Thought I'd treat my wife to something vintage for a change and got her this Doozer - happy to say she properly squealed with delight when she opened it.

I love me a bit of Melf :?

This is the last toy line that I bought to play with growing up and had a few of these figures. I really do rate this AD&D line and have picked up a full loose run of the first series and a few from series two. They're really well made figures and most of them can be picked up at a fairly good price still.

You may well have already seen this Retroblasting short on this toy line but I watched it recently and thought it made for great viewing - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIN7NvvbEh4

I've finally picked up something today that completes my loose and boxed vintage run of a well known toy line, so hopefully it will make it to me in one piece and I can get some pictures up for you all. Oh, love the Doozer as well, not seen these before so it's another great display of how this thread is the thread that keeps giving!

After waiting quite a while for the right one at the right price to come along it's finally happened and I've now completed my loose and boxed Indy collection!

Really happy with this truck as it arrived complete and in great shape with all the paperwork and a fairly nice box. It's been a while in the making putting this collection together but I took my time and enjoyed the whole journey.

Patience is the name if the game.
Lovely looking truck and box, don't see these very often.
Congratulations in completing your Indi run.

Thanks for the comment and it's nice to slowly put something together that feels achievable, I'll give it a good dust later but really happy to finally have it.

[Snaketibe]

Yes, congratulations on completing the run. What a great achievement! Although I've never collected the Indiana Jones toys myself, I've often been tempted to, as they look terrific; basically more Kenner vintage goodness!

Got another little curio from the past, an 80's transforming robot watch. :lol:

Utterly loved this thing as a kid and thought it was totally awesome, I look at it now and I realise it was just an ultra cheapo piece of plastic lightweight shite. :lol: but I absolutely love it and it brings back great memories.

 

[Clarkspie&chips]

Thanks for posting subzero, I also had one of those and completely forgotten all about it. Great memories are flooding back now!

Exactly the same with me, I was browsing at random vintage toys on ebay the other week and spotted it and it all came flooding back, I literally completely forgot about it since I was about 7 when I had one.
