Hi All,

Long time collector and arker here.

To make a short story here, I was fortunate enough through my work to come across an abandoned collection. What is even more interesting is that the collection seems to have once been the property of a Hasbro employee given some of the documents found in here as well as the high amount of Hasbro items.

There is A LOT of really cool stuff in here including GI Joe, Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel etc. But what is perhaps one of the coolest things I've found are autographed copies of Star Wars toys.

At some point in the near future, I plan to sell this stuff but for right now I'm basking in it's glory! I will add more pictures as I get through the hoard. There is also a lot more that is left unpictured.

Any rare MU 3.75 there?

by the looks of things in the box its just another speculator who jumped on the collector train back in the 90';s and found out it was worth nothing.

I wouldn't be so sure of that. There are a lot of convention exclusives in here from ToyFare and PreviewsExclusives. Also, the circumstances on how this collection became abandoned suggest that this person fell onto some hard times and left a lot of his personal effects behind.

Okay guys, so I got ANOTHER giant assortment today and I found out there is even more incoming.

So I'm trying to catalog it. Here are some photos of things I've found.

Wonder what would be said of the things were buying now in 20 years.


Sucks that that whoever this used to being to had to lose it for whatever reason.

That's why you collect ONLY what actually interests you. Or else you'll soon find your self surrounded by junk lol

It looks like who ever owned this actually liked star wars and star trek though.

Hey guys, okay so I have so much stuff right now I had to take a few days to start sorting so I can meaningfully categorize it. Remember, a lot of this stuff is going on sale over in the BST forum. So if you see anything you like, PM me!

Awesome finds

[taggsonian]

Great finds! It's very cool that you found so many of the Clerks InAction figures. I'm still working on collecting those. I live about 40 minutes away from Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash in Red Bank, NJ, but they usually only have a very small selection of them and they don't change very often.

I miss the new Star Wars vehicles having electronics .. Love that snow speeder

You live close to the stash?! That's really cool!

Also, @Tarquinius, those are some epic finds!

[taggsonian]

I do! I've been there a bunch of times. They have some great toys, comics and collectibles there!
