Wow, that is cherry! Look at the paint and how clear the wings are! Super nice. When I find this one the legs are usually broken off. Congrats on your Deluxe Insecticon set!

Thanks, I agree about the paint and legs.  5 of the legs are as tight as the day it was made.  One is loose, but still in great shape 

Are we OK to post board games here or is there a better spot?

Patrick

Post away !  let's see

Cool, cool. 

Went to a yard sale on Sunday.  

2 asides.  1) Colorado never has yard sales on Sunday.  Guessing from traveling other states, it's not as often elsewhere either.  Love to hear otherwise though.  2) Colorado has the worst yard sales.  Sorry, we're just too young compared to the East Coast and West Coast/Cali.  By the time the Calis arrive, they already sold before leaving. 

This yard sale was gigantic and almost entirely dedicated to collectibles.  Tons of toys, comics, games, movie and music media, etc.  

While looking around, I came across a gigantic board game area.  Didn't look like they'd been touched and I was quite late. 

Thought a bunch looked cool so I grabbed a pile and we made a solid deal.  
1st two that were $3 each.  Not worth much, but awesome art pieces.  I'll post more in the near future. 

Amazing Spider-man and the Fantastic Four - Made in 1977.  The box art is definitely cool.  The board has great colors.  Biggest issue are the cards and game pieces.  They did a terrible job with the Sorry pieces and the cards don't have art.  Just realizing I'm missing a pic showing the interior box that held the "S" pieces.  

Return of the Jedi "Jabba's Palace" Presto Magix - Made in 1983.  The concept is pretty cool.  Looks to me like they were trying to copy the Colorforms idea in a different manner.  The dungeon board is pretty sweet with the Han Solo carbonite.  The best part are the unused Prestos/stickers.  Come on, two unused Boba Fetts!  I'm honestly aching to try these out.  The person even kept the weird waxy paper that separated the Prestos/stickers.

I had that Jedi Presto-Magix, and have been looking for a nice one for years. So many great memories. Terrific pickup!

I always figured that people that moved to California already got rid of their old stuff. I didn’t realize Colorado had less. 
I picked up this gem on Saturday. 82’ GI Joe game. Complete. New condition! :smile: Power Rangers stuff is cool too. I need the tail on dragonzord and head for megazord. I also have pieces from the black megazord.

Did a trade for some Joe stuff. Mostly 90s ninja force and star brigade figures. I didn’t realize orange roadblock is a variant. I had to have that paintball snake eyes thanks to @Buzzetta

Ha! As soon as I sold mine I regretted it and was happy to pick an even nicer replacement up.  I really like this version and it's a keeper in any collection.   You wound up with an extra gun though.  Now you need to find another one to complete it.

Round 2

The Batman Game - Made in 1966.  Though it's the oldest, it's definitely better graphics-wise then many of the later games.  The exterior packaging, interior packaging, and pieces are amazing.  Spinner boards and tiles are really cool with the villain heads (especially Joker and Riddler).  Batmobiles are super cool.  Don't know what the heck the long yellow thing is.  The board is the least interesting part to me.  I had to pay more for this one; he didn't want to let it go. 

The Incredible Hulk Game with the Fantastic Four - Made in 1978.  Don't know why, but this one is super cool to me.  Though the inner and outer packaging are the same art, I love that they changed up the colors.  The board is the right-kind of craziness, almost has a Steranko or 1960s feel.  The board pieces are fantastic and not just because they include the 4.  Other older games could have learned from those cool figures.  The spinner board is my absolute favorite part.  The Hulk arm is flicked to spin around the numbers!!!!  Best part, only $3 and I got 2 of them. 

If anyone has played any of the games, I'd love to know.  As happy to know if they are terrible as good.

Love the colors and artwork on these, thanks for sharing! I picked up a 60’s Superman board game at an estate auction a couple of years ago. Not worth much buy the artwork was cool. Should have held onto it.

Not for nothing but as much as I am sometimes quick to point out missteps from Hasbro I really have to hand it to them that they have stepped up their game and really been a leader when it comes to bringing the comic con experience to your computer. 

They are hosting their own virtual con after having already used Facebook as a vehicle to unveil new product.  They have just announced a virtual cosplay contest. 

I am genuinely impressed.  I am not going to participate.  But, I am genuinely impressed.

I was flip flopping tonight to sell off another major part of the Joe collection... 

I was looking at prices and then I just saw this...

2nd Wave Retro line has some new sculpts and / or parts. 

I want that Scarlett and will be selling off the others when that is released... If I gotta get it on eBay then so be it.  This is 3.75"

New parts eh. I’m glad they’re doing more with these. I hear some are on the shelves. 

I also heard wave 2 of the 6” Joes is at Walgreens now. I forgot to post it on here but I found them at Target the other week, Including the elusive red ninja. One per case for that army builder

Oh and one more thing...  Remember when the season's con exclusives go on sale for members. 

I'm working on my mouse clicking speed daily to land myself a Marvel Legends Hellfire Club set.  :ohnoez:
