i wonder what would happen if his room caught on fire? :Q or a big earthquake hit. with a collection that immence, i'm sure he protected it with his life. I know he's going to die once he sells it all. Is it really worth it? selling all your memories for 7+k? must be interested in a down payment...

i know if i had a large collection of that, I would NEVER sell it. I'm never selling my Jlove collection, thats for sure :D

Transformers was never my thing. I had like 5 Fed-Ex boxes of He-Man toys. And my mom sold them for $1 a box at a garage sale <wipes away tear>

They are not &quot;just freakin TOYS&quot;! They are memories. They are my lost childhood. They are the reminders of simpler days. They are also woth ahelluva lot of cash!

Transformers were NOT toys.

They were a way of life.

Transformers are not mere toys. Transformers are an important piece of Americana...

Go-bots were toys.

chiwawa: you're just too young (and Russ, you're too old ;))to realize how much of a part of some of our lives Transformers were when we were kids. It's all about nostalgia. :D

Somebody mentioned He-Man, and that got me thinking about one of the figures I've always wanted back after my mom sold it at a garage sale: He came in a box and was a bunch of pieces...heads, legs, torsos...kind of red and ant-looking. That was my favorite toy ever, because it combined all the good parts of my favorite toys: you had to assemble it like Legos, you could transform him from one thing to another like Transformers, he had a gun like GI Joe's, and last but not least, he was part of the Evil Horde or whatever the Masters of the Universe baddies were called. :)
