Memories from Christmas’s Past 0

[Robot Man]

My younger daughter was remarking how spoiled her nieces were yesterday. I had to remind her that she did alright as a kid too. I put away a lot of her favorite toys over 25-30 years ago. Her, I and her husband decided to pull them out of the garage where I had stored them. Was fun watching them rediscover their childhood. A lot of you guys might remember some of this stuff. There is some more we didn’t get to. Mostly original Spawn, Ghost Busters and Simpsons stuff. Some old LEGO sets as well. I sure wish my parents had kept MY stuff...

Anything collectible or worth anything here?

[Robot Man]

Didn’t even get into her older sister’s stuff. I pulled this out because it was probably her favorite toy. She has quite a few original Star Wars toys and all her sports cards.

Cool!

You can tell that dad is a real collector - original boxes kept!

That's an awesome childhood @Robot Man

Awesome parents too!

The TMNT stuff is really cool.  I'd need to look up the prices, some are not worth a lot but some are.  The Krang is a desirable piece.  One I've been looking for for awhile. 

ECTO-1 is desirable.  I'm sure that Ghost Trap is too. 

Very cool stuff.

I'd think having the boxes, and in such nice shape, would go a long way toward increasing value for all this stuff.  really cool that you hung on to all of it.

@Robot Man

Last recorded sale of the #6273 Lego Pirate Set loose but with box and instructions was $200 on eBay.   Many of those parts are not currently in production and are sought after. 

 

The gas station $40-$60 I would say... with the box?  $90?  $100.  A lot of those parts are still in production and the pieces that are not were included in MANY sets and are easily found online.

That is sweet Man!

Wish I had saved my GI Joes, Star Wars and Omega supreme when I was young.

You must have been the coolest dad!

[Robot Man]

Thanks for all the feedback guys. My daughter knew I kept some of her toys but we surprised how many. She loved these as a kid and was a little overwhelmed with them. She isn’t a collector but had fun checking them out. She said she might decide to sell them off down the road. She lives out of state and had to leave them here for a while. She took home the figures and small vehicles. She probably has all the guns and accessories as well. She is going to match them up. Are there any figures that are scarce? We had a lot of fun checking out this stuff.

We didn’t get into the back where her older sister’s stuff is. Her stuff is probably 5 years older. I saw some Star Wars boxes. 

As far as being a cool dad. I would think so but at the time they were living at home, they might disagree. Hey, stupid teenagers what do they know. We get along great as adults now.

Hello,

Some rare TMNT figures: 

Shogun Shoate from 1994

Hotspot from 1993

Scratch the Cat from 1993

Those goofy cavemen Turtles can be too.

My daughter took some pictures of her figures. She is starting to figure out what she has. She also has a big bag of weapons and accessories and is going to try and identify them and put the accessories together with the figures. Pretty sure she has them as she really loved these as s kid and probably unlike me, took real good care of them.

Here are the figures she has. Anything scarce or desirable?

[Robot Man]

Here are the parts and accessories. We assume some of them go to the figures and some go to the boxed toys.

A bit of a big task for her. Personally, I think it would be fun but I’m making her do it. Any help, she would be very grateful!

[Robot Man]

Here are her smaller un-boxed vehicles. Can anybody identify them? Do they look complete? If not, she probably has the parts in her accessory bag. 

Again, she would very much appreciate any help she could get. I know to many it would be a real fun experience. To her, it is a huge mass of confusion.

Vehicles from the last post. 

Don't think anything is rare.  

• Cheapskate (skateboard) - Should be a "foot" pedal below the yellow part.
• Sewer Party Tube (yellow inner tube) - should be a yellow flag that says Kowabunga
• Double Barreled Plunger Gun - should be a 2nd green seat on the other side
• Footski (blue hovercraft) - should have a red missile, red pole with a yellow flag that says Leech Patrol and black crossbones flag, and I believe 2 red bombs for the sides.
• Pizza Thrower - should have a white triangular flag
• Toilet Taxi (car with plungers in front) - should have a grey piping mechanism on the back with a flag; red seatbelt, and red gun/hose.
• Sewer Sub - should have an orange gun on the rear top, orange periscope on the top, and I believe 2 orange bombs on blue wings for the lower sides.
• Pizza Skimmin' Jetboat (red turtle-faced boat) - should have a Pizza Power flag for the front.

In the accessories pic, these are vehicles too: 

• Sewer Seltzer Cannon (small cannon) - will be complete when the soda/exhaust mechanism is re-added to it. 
• Turtlecycle - should have a trashcan sidecar, sidecar wheel, handlebars, bucket slingshot, and a trash can lid.
