Hi everyone just had a roller coaster of a couple of weeks so thats why I havent been on here chatting to you so my big apologies for that everyone!! My girlfiend is pregnant which is not really planned and kind of going against what I said about me ever having kids haha. Anyway I am going to have to part with my collection to help fund getting ready for the little terror I think you have all seen what an amazing load of stuff I have including some uber rare items if theres anything your after email me check out the pictures which are in the original thread I started called hi from the wet and windy U.K everything is for sale and mostly is all sealed and un-used I know most of you are in the U.S but I can use DPD to deliver to you and it wont cost loads for big items..... oh any suggestions for names would be good but she has already ruled out B.A and Murdock if it's a boy haha

Wow, first of all CONGRATULATIONS!!! That are some exciting news!! I bet you guys must be thrilled!! But too bad that you have to part with your collection (well, for you at least, not so much for us guys ;D ) I know that will mean some work but how about you put pictures of the single items with prices (or price suggestions) in here so we can have a closer look) As for names (you know everybody has different taste) I like Jessica or Zoe for a girl or Ryan or Liam if it is a boy!! ;D

Congratulations! I'm happy for you. I recently became an uncle, so I know how much joy a newborn child can give you. I agree with Zihna, it might be a bit of a pain, but it would sure make it a lot easier for us here at the forum if you'd take pic of the individual items and pershaps give your personal grade in which shape you think they are in. I'm definitely interested in buying some of these things, but I'd like some clearer pictures.

Allright, after going over your awesome collection, I can say that I am interested in one of the two Mr. T dolls that you have MIB, I think they are 12". I am also interested in the A-Team Van that sits on top of your Command Center on the sixth pic.
Could you take some pics of those, and tell me a little about the grade and perhaps a price what you want for them (individual prices)?
Also, are we getting first dibs here on the forum before they go on Ebay?

Hi thanks everyone yeah we are chuffed just a bit unexpected but hey I am really looking forward to it all now(well not the late sleepless nights). Yeah if you want ask me which pictures you want and I will sort them out and post them on here. You guys will exclusively get first dibs on them all as I know you guys will look after them like I have. Yeah the 12" dolls are nice the one you are on about is in C-9.5 to C-10 condition it's a right stunner and still factory sealed. Also the Van is fantastic and sealed still has the original tie wrap round it and the box is mint mint the same goes for the corvette and the Helicopter all are sealed and C-9 to C-10 condition I still have the very command centre but a dealer is really pressing me for it but I dont really want to sell it to a dealer as they dont appreciate them and it's a mega rare item.

Good to know. The 2 Mr. T 12" dolls you have, are the exactly the same? I see some difference on the bottom of the box, don't know what that is.
Can I get some more pics of those two things for starters? And at what price would you let those go for? Money is a bit tight at the moment, so I can't guarantee I'll buy them. I'll have to review the price with my current economy first.

This I gotta see (your collection, that is!) I may have to purchase some items; I promise I'll take great care of them! Congrats on the exciting news! My personal choices for names: Roderick, for a boy (I loved this name long before I watched TAT and Col. Decker) Second choice: Marcus Girl names: Eowyn or Fiona (I love Celtic names for girls) ;D

That sucks that you have to get rid of the collection, but I can't think of a better reason. Kids are great. I would love to have a look at everything in the collection. I am collecting more and more every day. I would love to have some of your stuff, but individual pictures would be ideal. As for names, Derek is a great name. If not, Roderick.

I am also interested in the Galoob figures, not the prototypes, the original ones sold in stores. Some pics & prices of them as well would be great.
Hurry up hurry up ;D

I agree with pictures, but we might want to keep the prices to PM. That way, corvette could deal with the people as needed.

True I guess, but that might mean more work for poor corvette1977 since he has to contact everyone who is interested in something. Might be smoother for him to do it all here, and if the price is right, the one who is interested can send him a PM and make the deal. Besides, if for an example he says a price for the Mr. T doll that doesn't sit right with me, another member can step in and say he/she wants it. If a price is not mentioned in the thread, one of us would have to report back in the thread that nothing came of it, and those who are interested would have to PM corvette1977. Just seems like a lot of hassle, but I guess it's all up to corvette1977. Either way, pictures, please

Corvette: It's your call on prices, but I don't want this or any other thread to turn into a bidding war or haggling market. Congrats again on your baby on the way.
