Who still has their Star Wars stuff from the 70s and 80s?
I've been eyeing ebay for the Empire Strikes Back edition of the Millenium Falcon in the box. I found a few too. That is the one I had when I was a kid. I just saw the picture of me opeing it Christmas morning not too long ago and that got me interested in getting one again. I'm afraid though if I start collecting this stuff I won't stop!lol
So if you have anything left I'd love to see some pics.
Cheers,
Trevor

I've got alot of odds an ends from the star wars collection, just some pieces from the ships etc. Tons of GI Joe stuff though. A whole box of figures alone.
Other thing I have lots of is the old AFX and Tyco slot cars. 
It really is cool going to the toy and collectable show. Kinda burns me to see how much things that I destroyed are worth now...

Here's something that'll make ya cry.
About 10 years ago mom sold all my star wars stuff at a garage sale... for about $20.
Considering that star wars was a passion of mine since I was 3 it was quite the collection... All heavily used of course, so it's not like someone got an in the box quality well... anything. But I had it all man. Millenium Falcon, couple of X wings, Tie fighters. Hell I even had the Rancor monster. I THINK I still have a box of figures stashed away at my parent's place somewhere too but i'd have to go digging for it 
I bought a ton of star wars lego a couple of years ago too. heh.

Vintage star wars toys aren't worth much unless you kept the original boxes. Wide spread collecting started to become pretty big in the late 80s so all the gen X and gen Y people who were alive for the original movies probably stashed their toys away just in case. I still have all of mine locked away in that stupid Darth Vader action figure holder lol. Everytime my mother took me downtown she had to buy me a figure.
The only thing I can imagine being worth anything is an unopened Darth Vader or maybe Luke Skywalker from the first movie.
I bet a lot of people here still have their Transformers, Hemans, GI Joes, My Little Ponys, Stawberry Shortcake ... I recall my little female friend across the street having some kind of mermaid toys and you could brush their hair. Any 30ish ladies know what these were?

Few Star Wars But A Lot Of Turtles
When I was little I was obsessed with turtles. Hence I have a huge tupperware container with a huge variety of the original teenage mutant ninja turtles. My GI Joes didnt seem to hold up to the Play-doe wars unfortunately though.

Me and the gf just signed the papers today for our first home. I know the first thing on my Mom's mind is she can finally get rid of the closet full of Stars Wars stuff that she's been trying to get me to take since I moved out 11 years ago!
Spidergecko, you forgot to mention He-Man!

I'm not saying much on this thread, for the sake of rambling on for uncrotnollably, giggling to myself like a child. But yeah, I've got mountains of the stuff burried in my folks basement that I need to move some time. My collection was just a couple of pieces short of all the action figures and accessories, and of course tons of other stuff.
