Looks like a real blast from the past. I wish toy shops nowadays look like Skywarp's collection!

The pictures are only cut off because of the way the fourm is set up, it is designed to stop the page from streching to fit the biggest image all the time. To see your full picture just click it and it should expand.

Man, I feel so stupid! That's all I had to do with the pic?

Anyways, Here's my Devastators. Sealed on cards and mint in giftset with everything unused. I got a incredible deal on the giftset.

They shouldn't be that hard to find. They are several on ebay. Under $40 each for completes.

Skywarp408,
my teeth were damaged as my jaw hit the floor, I'll send you the dental bill... :lol:
Seriously, that's a fantastic collection you have, and besides, a solid investment.
Want to share how you come by the stuff? At the current prices, I don't see myself ever getting MiSB G1s, I can't get myself to justify spending those kind of money. And these great deals everyone's on about, well it hasn't happened to me yet! :P

Right place, right time is the key to many {if not all} great deals.

Even though I have already seen your collection on another TF forum its still impressive skywarp408.

Patience,time and a lot of research.You can find great deals even on a forum (my wheeljack,mirage,Ramjet and Ironhide came to mind;i don't want to know what i've paid for them 8) ).

Yeah, that STARS set is one of the hardest to find of all. Mine is almost complete, but missing the member card. The last one I saw on Ebay complete went for around $800 last year. They do not come up often. I paid about $100 bucks for mine about 2 years ago.


Anyways, here's everyone's favorite tape deck, boom box and cassettes!

Don't see these often.

If the s.t.a.r.s. are so valuable I don't understand why there aren't tons of KOs going around.

Isn't it just cardboard and red cellophane? Scan 1 and you could print your own.

I think LD2062 was mistakenly thinking of the "Activity Center" or whatever it's called.

However, Dinobot, you've missed THESE in the US, in the last 90 days:

$27 (Some water damage, but complete) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... tsupported

$200 (ULTRA complete, with mailer, patch, EVERYTHING edit: almost everything, no iron on) http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... tsupported

Incidentally, I recently found an old envelope with a filled out STARS order form and robot points in it... I was going to order THREE! Aaaaaargh!

PS: If you've read this far... there's one on Ebay RIGHT NOW. No iron-on, patch, or poster though. Heck, I'm probably not even going to bid on it, so have at it, Dinobot!

Thank you Banzai-Tron. I am feverishly watching this in super anticipation. This playset will be the holy grail of my collection. I must own this thing. I must buy it.

So? Did you get it? I didn't bid, and it STILL went quite high.
