Hi Paul,

Welcome to the forum.

As you can see a great set of lads on here.

I've been looking at Carded Pocket Marvel Mego figures recently. You collect these??
Saw them in a Marvel Spiderman book and thought they looked cool
so I'm watching a few at the mo. Plantman loves his collecting of other toy lines aswell.

Welcome Mark and Paul - I know Bingley fairly well Paul, i used to go to the odd party there in my student days

 

[plantman]

I have an aunt who lives in bingley, all i remember is that the leeds/liverpool canal (im sure its called that.. i may be wrong as its bradford) runs near her house and ive fished it a few times, and that to get to her house i need to stay in second gear cos the hill is so bloody steep.

Hi Paul
Do you collect carded mego's ?
I have noticed a few on ebay recently going for high prices.

I have the Starsky and Hutch and Star Trek crew carded. The Superheroes are generally expensive (think 12 backs) and some are so rare that only two or three of certain figures are known to exist which then pushes them into the £thousands.

There is a "how to" use photobucket topic in the vintage section, I will go post there so you see it in orange (although it is a sticky)

 

[DarthStanley]

Thanks for the advice joe,finally managed to do it but the photo sizes are all different.

I always use paintshop pro for resizing.

Or if you use Google Picasa to email the pictures to photobucket it will resize the pictures automatically to your prefererred size.

 

[DarthStanley]

Thanks for the help & advice lads,i'm starting to get the hang of it now.

Cheers
