Other Vintage Collections

Always great to see what other toy lines interest members on here so thanks for sharing. Best of luck tracking down the few missing pieces as well, it's not a sprint with this collecting fun but always nice to get something to add every now and then.

Found a spare empty box for my used Battle Cat and resealed it, even added the exact same type of elastic band around the helmet wrapped around in the exact same way the factory applied it to replicate that new look. Looks great and does the job at a fraction of the cost compared to if it was sealed new. 8)

Love the artwork on these boxes!

The artwork is amazing on these, it looks the business in the case, nice addition to your collection.

Thanks, gotta be my favourite artwork out of any toy line, and with the gorgeous colourful MOTU logo really makes them special.

The artwork is amazing for MOTU. Have you watched 'By the Power of Greyskull on netflix? Really good.

I haven't watched that, I also haven't seen The Toys That Made Us either as I don't have Netflix, but iv'e been getting tempted lately to take out a free trial just to watch a couple of things like this which i'll most likely do before the year is finished.

A few pictures of my Palisades Muppets collection figures - playsets are there too but obscured a bit on the bottom shelf by the plush’s

That's a terrific collection! I wasn't familiar with these, but they look great. Thanks for sharing

Started a Commodore 64 game collection again, last time I collected was 2008 but sold up, so iv'e been gathering up a load of games again to complete a full run of all my childhood games. And what better way to do this than with a vintage 80's cassette storage drawer unit which just arrived today, looks cool I think along with a bit of modern tech, quite stylish. Makes me feel more at home ( back in the 80's where I wanna be ). :lol:

I have about another 30 games left to collect, mostly in small budget cases just like these ones and about 10 of the larger 'big box games'.

They are great. I picked up one from CE2 and hadnt seen them beofre. No idea that there were so many - I just have Uncle Deadly, Ghost and Yorick

and some classic games there subzero - nice!

Thought I'd share my latest Action Man pics - the boat ones are from this afternoon. a lovely day

Fantastic photos, Andy! And I'm loving Action Man's pipe!

Thanks both, and Jeremy a bit of photoshop cheat the pipe

I was inspired by this great 60s photo

Ah, that makes more sense! I'm no Action Man expert, but whilst I was just about prepared to believe they might have made a pipe for an Action Man back in the 70's, I did think it rather unlikely! :lol:

It's a great recreation of the pic though

I watched it last night, it was amazing and very informative

Man did I love the Dreamcast, remember playing it all summer in 99, Power Stone was amazing and Crazy Taxi was super addictive.

I also remember buying House of The Dead 2 with the light gun in 2002 when the games were still in shops, I always used to go to a shop in town after work on Saturdays and trade in games for other ones to play ( all the games were quite cheap by that time ), had a lot of fun with that console.
