Shall I sell?

[DRW]

Just discovered this site while looking for somewhere to sell a big collection of Action Man stuff. Didn't find a suitable site, but I'm impressed with Action Force Online.

The thing is, I never realised they were collectible. I've got a fair-sized collection in my parents' attic.

So is it worth my while digging them out and offering them to collectors? As far as I remember I had the complete first series, and quite a few of the second, including many vehicles and the cardboard base thingy.

Would they be of interest? I doubt many boxes survived, so...

[Brakkart]

Hell yeah dig em out, put a list on here, you're bound to have something at least 1 of us wants.

[DRW]

Okay, consider it done. I'll see if I can go round at the weekend, digital camera in hand.

Is lack of boxes a problem? Is it worth digging out the vehicles? Had a couple of Jeep-type-things (my favourite was SAS), some kind of snowmobile and others. Will anyone want the carboard base?


Cheers,

I expect so! You've definitely come to the right place, so I'd just stick up a listing and see what kind of offers you get.

The other option is to keep 'em and get all of the missing ones!!!

[DRW]

Oh, I can't keep them. I have too many other toys that need too much petrol and garage space.

How do I post pics on here? I have no web space of my own.

Anyhow, I've dug them out, and here's a brief list of some of the stuff. Unless stated otherwise, it's not boxed. I think I still have the cards from the figures somewhere, but couldn't find them today.

And some other stuff. But my girlfriend is now demanding I help her with dinner, so I'll come back to it later.

I have loads of weapons, but don't know which chap owns which gun.

If you want to make an offer for any, feel free. I will email digi pics if you like.

Hope something here can add to someone's collection.
