Hi guys I hope this all works right......this is my fist day on the site & I'm a small time collector. I got some football card, die-cast car & some other loose stuff. Very cool forum and I plan to post often..........
Today I traded a truck for this stuff. The truck was worthless & hadn't run in 10 years, & theses action figures took be back to my childhood in the 80's....... This older gentleman I've known for years always told me about these but I had never seen them before today. He showed up here yesterday wanting to haul an old farm truck in for junk. So I "Jokingly" said sure , but you have to trade me some of thoughs original GI Joes. Well today he knocks on my door again today, with 2 faded KMart bags full of these. My wife thought I was completely insane & I was wondering if I was 2.....
Are theses worth anything today? or is is it me just wanting to be a kid again?


This stuff has never been opened, or asembled........... & its all original "No Reproductions"

I think you already know that the trade was well worth it
I want that Storm Shadow he alone has been going for $300++ on ebay
and those vehicles sealed WOW is all I am saying.This is my estimate $1000+
for the whole collection if it were sold individually on ebay right now.

Good trade, great stuff you got there!
cobraferret is right, that Stormy is pricey!

Not a bad way to introduce yourself

Ebay is the price guide and what you can expect to get money wise.
What someone will pay is what they are worth not vise versa like it used to be,but in your case if you sell that is a good thing.Ebay the new price guide
but if you do sell on ebay do an auction with a reserve amount.Look at previous auctions and see what they went for and determine a reserve amount from them.Usually I go with half the amount set at reserve.

Personally I wouldn't sell them either.Especially that Storm Shadow unless it was to me of course Show your wife this thread and show her on ebay,but this may pose a problem for you as she may say sell them and give you trouble if you don't
