Hey All,

[Jonnyred]

Well i've been reading this site for a while now, absolutley love it!

I was going to go to my dads this weekend and clear out some old stuff, including lots of AF that me and my little brother have, and stick it on ebay, but after spending some time on here i don't know what to do!

Do i keep it, knowing full well that it's spent the last 20 odd years in the loft gathering dust, or do i sell it and give away a piece of my childhood?

PS Absolutley loved the pic of the Z Foce soldier MIA after 21 years! Did he ever get down?

I sold a load of my childhood Lego a few years ago, and I regret it now. I made a bit of dosh, I spent the dosh, and the toys were gone forever.

My advice is to go home, get them all out and have a good play, and see if they still make you happy. If they do, then keep them, or bung them back in the loft for another 20 years for your kids to inherit. If you feel you've outgrown them, then yeah, I'd sell them. I still love my toys just as much now at 34!

We're all waiting with fingers crossed to see if our Z Force radio operator makes it home in one [mangled] piece.

Where are my manners? Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for the welcome Baron!

I do have an ace in the hole, my 4 year old son, so i could pass them onto him. He`s already got my lego (although i prob play with it more!)

Trying to remember what there is, definetly lots of 1st, 2nd & 3rd generation figures, Hovercraft, Roboskull, Sealion and possibly a Skystriker (although that may have been wishfull thinking, always wanted one!)

PS Age 35 by the way!

welcome to the BOARDS!!!!! good to have you hear make yourself at home and let us know what you do

I have my collection in my house in florida and I havent seen the stuff really in 4 years but there is no way Im selling my stuff ! !

Welcome to the boards !
If you have a son and he is interested in the figures it could definatley make you and him a cool hobby in the future.
........if you do sell SELL TO ME !!!

[The Baron]

No, sell to ME!! No wait, give them to me!

Been meaning to say, have you visited http://falconsquadron.sevenpennynightmare.co.uk/? Going by your username it'll be right up your street!

[Jonnyred]

Yep, been to Johnnys site, the Hurricane is my all time favourite plane, hence the name! Also Charleys War, but going off topic now!

Ok, i've raided my dads attic and there is a good smattering of AF gear up there, which brings me onto my next question. I've used ebay to sell stuff in the past, but after reading through the posts i don't really want to sell to a shop or anyone who will sell on for a profit.

I'd much rather pass on / sell some of the bits i have to genuine collectors on this forum so i know it's going to a good home (sounds daft, i know, but my men deserve a good home!)

Will be looking to you guys to lead on price as really don't know what bits go for.

So any advice you may have would be cool, because i don't really think i have the time or space to start collecting full time and all the comics are on line so i can visit anytime!

I will compile a list, from reading the boards though i do have the following that i think are semi rare:
2 x yellow space commander hats
2 x blue space force "uzi" machine guns (think they are space force)
1 x Kraken Tri Laser
1 x Kraken Net
1 x Yellow / Black Lifebelt

plus more backpacks, scuba gear, figures and vehicles!

Long post, will get the full list up soon!

[Jonnyred]

Ok, roughly from left to right reading down:
Q Force Phones? radio head set
Remote control unit (poss Scrap Irons)
Mutt & Junkyard (which one was the dog again?) lead
Black radio unit (no attached headphones)
Artic Assault backpack
Backpack (may be star wars?) seem to remember had a ladder with it
Scuba gear complete with mask
Lifejacket (black on other side)
2 x yellow torpedoes
2 x blue torpedoes
1 x ski & 1 x pole (might make a set for someone!)
Blue Pistol, Either AF or Star Wars
Black Pistol, Either AF or Star Wars
Kraken Trident
Remote Unit, agian poss Scrap Iron
Ammo Box
2 x Blue Uzis (one has bit missing off end)
3 x Black Flippers
2 x Blue Flippers
1 x Space Force Helmet (sorry, no visor)
2 x Yellow Space Force Hats
1 x Doc Medical Case ( i think, looks like AF & have the Doc)
1 x Weapons case, broken down gun parts moulded inside
1 x Hovercraft motorbike
1 x Kraken Net

& on the other pic:
4 x Roboskull feet
4 x Roboskull red wing cannons

That'll do for a start!

If you check our Wants section, both Zakkfan and Tired Fighter are after Roboskull bits.
