My Collection is ridiculous!

Toywizardtoys · 10-18-2011, 08:47 PM

I was digging through my container bins in my garage (which is completely full of them) and found a ton of stuff I don't even remember having. I found dino riders, motu, g.i.joe playskool figures, buffy figures, vintage star wars 12" figures, m.u.s.c.l.e.s, vintage transformers.

I just couldn't believe it. And I didn't even make a dent. Can you say toy hoarder?

LXL_Guy · 10-18-2011, 08:49 PM

Possibly but I'm sure many forget of other toys they've gotten. Sometimes one just runs out of room too.

Do Boy · 10-18-2011, 08:51 PM

I have found tons of stuff in my closet I forgot I had before lol.

thechris · 10-18-2011, 09:14 PM

Yeah, happens to me all the time. My interest in toylines fluctuate pretty big time.

This is true. Some of the stuff I found made me feel like a little kid again. I loved it! Now my goal is to try and sell most of it. Ebay will be seeing a lot of me, as well as the phoenix toy show.

And just think its pretty much free money. If you decide to keep some stuff then oh well it didn't really cost you anything.

BlackMagnus · 10-18-2011, 11:02 PM

Yes you are a hoarder, you should give your Transformers to me to lighten your burden.

behindthemask · 10-18-2011, 11:06 PM

Proof or this never happened! .... I can say damn I hate hording Porsches I opened the back door and realized I got like 20 just sitting around. Which I don't and if I did I wouldn't have much time to chat on here lol.

Come on, man. Why would anyone lie about having M.U.S.C.L.E. figures? Ha, just kidding. I have a couple of small tubs full of the fleshy guys and the random colour ones, too. I even bought the newer ones that came out a few years ago featuring the Ultimate guys.

Word.... I'm not calling him a lier, but when you create a thread about finding hidden treasure and you get to the moment where you realized your collection is now like double/tripple the size it was 5 mins ago is an amazing feeling and something awesome to share, overall it would be a huge deal. Atleast to me it would be. I'd take 30 mins sort through them take some shots and let your fellow arker in on the good news.

To be honest it's so easy to lie about finding toys here and there or getting this or that, photo evidence is key espeically when on this site a lot of arkers do business trading,buying and selling and I don't want to see anybody get the reputation of having amazing toys when they don't have squat and scam people out of large or even small sums of money. Not calling the poster of this thread a lier by anymeans, just some pics help the story and 1 picture tells a 1000 words, images what 10 pictures could say lol. jk but sigh... plus you have tons of stuff you didn't know about and may not care about but other arkers might be craving items and you can sell some and or trade for figures you do want... just some helpful advise.

Toywizardtoys · 10-19-2011, 08:11 AM

I'll take pics when I get chance. I just started a thread to share my thoughts.

MegsTriggerMan · 10-19-2011, 08:26 AM

Now that colder weather is coming im going to be going down to my families storage unit and cleaning it out ... 50 percent of which is my older stuff ... all my TMNTS Centurians Spidermand daily bugle playset which im sure is destroyed

and ton more surprises ...

pud333 · 10-19-2011, 08:45 AM

I do a 6 month purge. Anything I haven't looked at or taken out of the bins/off the shelf, I sell.

Darkspeed · 10-19-2011, 01:17 PM

I had quite large collection of vintage TMNT figures from when I was a kid, as well as a lot of Mighty Max playsets... Sadly they're all gone now, my family donated them all while I was living abroad.

But had no room for displaying them at my place, so they were all put away in boxes around the house... I can;t even remember the full extent of that collection, so I couldn't name off every single thing I owned. But I know for sure I had the damn Foot Mobile! :P

Toywizardtoys · 10-19-2011, 02:21 PM

Since no one believed me on the m.u.s.c.l.e.s

I never took them out of their shipping box until today, just to prove to people I wasn't lying. I really am a hoarder.

lol yeah you are. I just realized you got them in those boxes. I thought those were like toys you found from your childhood that had been packed up. That clears things up.
