Other stuff I collect/own/have collected include:

M.A.S.K. vehicles and figures,
CENTURIONS-have all 3 goodies-Jake Rockwell, Ace McCloud and Max Ray as well as the baddies, Hacker and got them mint from the Far East last year and Doc Terror, loose complete from the USA,
Visionaries-own all the figures complete-including the drivers, loose but don't have the 2 good guys vehicles or the Dagger Assault, I do have the bad guys Sky Claw and Mortdredd, Action Jacks/M.A.C. men,
Lego Town and Castle-classic stuff from the 1980s-1990s,
Vintage and 40th Repro Action Man and G.I.JOE dolls-have a massive collection,
Corgi Rockets small cars,
Matchbox vintage small cars, its always been the bouncy suspension that got me,
Modern Mattel Hot Wheels and MBX Matchbox cars,
Corgi Vanguards-just loved those old cars of the 1970s and 80s,
Mattel Big Jim dolls, went through a phase last year and own quite a far bit including the last series figures,
Madel Man-both the repros and the modern versions,
Madel Man 2050-have all the first series COTA and Zarkons,
ZOIDS, bought loads of them in 2006 from my local The Entertainer at bargain prices and some other stuff like a mint boxed Red Horn The Terrible from the Far East at bargain prices, just loed building these things and watching them come alive for the first time,
Cyborg and Muton (well, I own the repros by Takara called Shonen Cyborg and King Walder Jnr, both the blue and yellow Walders),
Vintage Pedigree and Zodiac Tommy Gunns,

I also customise Action Men and Tommy Gunns, putting together either modern or WW2 uniforms from modern manufactured 1/6th scale uniforms and accessories. The other day I made a intage Action Man into a Royal Hong Kong Municipal Police Inspector wearing the summer uniform of green shorts and short sleeved shirt as they used to wear in the mid 60s to the 80s....

I suppose I go through nostalgic phases. Lately I've even got into Hornby OO scale trains and have been amassing a pretty large collection. I just like seeing them whizz around my layouts....I don't actively collect the other stuff I've listed above but once in a while add to it....

There was some really neat stuff there.

No. I didn't. Must have gone for a hell of price though?

If you do a google search you can see prototypes of the final 2 never made Centurions and their weapons systems.....

I've often felt they should have made a) more baddies or b) made them have 2 arms, 2 legs and then you could have been able to either add on more cyborg bits and bobs or their robotic halves Syntax and Lieson....Theres not much scope with them just having half a human body. Mind you, in moments of boredom I wonder how they had a poo with half a bum hole......lol.

I don't know what they went for, but should be able to find out for you. I'll try and take some pictures from the auction program for you to show what was being offered.

Don't I know it, I supplied over 800 freestanding units that they were supposed to return and found out yesterday we got only 300 back, they weren't theirs to give away, they cost me over £200 each to make and to top it off, not getting any of the money owed either.

yay!
