Loving all the He-Man/Thundercats love on here guys. I never had any of these toys growing up although I did watch the series for both on returning home from school. These figures are very iconic and it's nice to see them posted up on here.

I was given this book a while ago which is a great read and has all that awesome artwork from the packaging in it as well as a very thorough history of all things He-Man. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Art-He-Man-Masters-Universe-Various/dp/1616555920/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1540628207&sr=8-4&keywords=he+man+book

There are also a few other nice looking books out there on this franchise but this one was a good overview for me.

Ian

That looks like a great book, I might consider getting that at some point so i'll bookmark it, thanks!

It is a real y good one to get and also this one that reprinted all the mini comics that came with the figures looks to be good - https://www.amazon.co.uk/He-Man-Masters-Universe-Minicomic-Collection/dp/1616558776/ref=pd_bxgy_14_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=1616558776&pd_rd_r=716c9854-d9f4-11e8-8572-bff4bf7a5c64&pd_rd_w=8mXLj&pd_rd_wg=unSly&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_p=466c8fd0-3653-4c9b-86fa-f9bc8fd2ae35&pf_rd_r=ZPVY698929APYZGBG2M8&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=ZPVY698929APYZGBG2M8

Thanks for that, however i'm not really into the comics, I only wanted the two that I have because of nostalgia and I haven't even read them they're just for display only. :lol:

That's pretty much the same for me which is why the first book does work well for me as more of an overview.

Commodore 64 datassette unit, brand new old stock, never opened or used and is absolutely mint. The ebay seller had about 1500 of these and i'd been half thinking about buying one for like the past year odd since I first noticed this, and as iv'e now been seriously thinking of getting a C64 again soon I decided to get one of these units last week, and the seller only had 2 left..... :shock: very lucky. This chance will never happen again unless someone out there randomly finds another load of long lost shop stock, other buyers of this unit reckon they might have been manufactured in the early 90's by a 3rd party company, in the same factory using the exact same parts but without the Commodore licence, which is why there's no Commodore logo on it but is exactly the same unit in every way.

This should last a good few years.

Those Artwork books look great, the MOTU artwork is brilliant in my opinion

Nice pickup on the 64 deck that brings back memories, although the first I bought was the spectrum plus 3 :? Showing my age!

Pick up to go with He Man ...battle armour Skeletor original moc and bubble, there is a battle armour Skeletor figure on his way

Some comics as well, so popped one into the He Man moc, just need his weapons now

 

[Michael Sith]

Also brought out the Thundercats to start tidying these up the plan is to reseal Lion o and tidy up the other 2 and get them in acrylic

Then work on the othe Thundercats we have

I had a Sinclair but we never had any leads or games for it so it just became a novelty thing to look at, I don't even know where it came from. :lol:

I love the battle armour figures, are you planning on resealing a large run of MOTU MOC's?

Can't go wrong on a fiver, especially if it's a mail away, would imagine they are harder to come by, nice one 8)

Gotta be the most random vintage purchase iv'e ever acquired. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Didn't really care what film it was as long it was 90's or earlier, also had to get this from the US because I just could not for the life of me find one in the UK, surprising considering how many of these bloody things existed. But maybe the only people left with these were the ones who rented a tape then completely forgot all about taking it back, because Blockbuster probably would have destroyed all these when moving over to DVD and nobody ever thought to intentionally keep any.

 

[Clarkspie&chips]

Congratulations on finally getting one, I know you'd been after one for ages. "Grail" item acquired :lol:
