Yeah the Shogun Warriors were about 18-24 inches tall and shot thins from their bodies like darts or sometimes even fists. A direct hit to your head hurt like hell and you could get them from South Street in Philly from the super hero shop.

Forgot those Smurfs. We had all those little plastic figures and their mushroom houses too. Those were actually pretty cool. I think we started collecting those in the late 70's too.

Ah yes, I remember these guys. Never had one, but I remember the commercials. My mom probably wouldn't buy me one because she knew I'd be shooting them at my little brother. Which I would've done!!!!

I used to collect Gi Joe in the 80's, Transformers, Gobots, He-man, TMNT, some hot wheels. Recently I've collected the re-issued Transformers, comic book style TMNT, a few Spawn figures and mostly import female PVC figures. The import stuff has really started to aim toward adults because some of these figuers are nude or topless.

When I was a kid I had a huge Matchbox collection. I started collecting them in 1964 when I was six. My dad would get us each a new one every two weeks (on payday). I eventually bought some of my own when I had my own money. I don't know what ever became of them. If I still had that collection, I'm sure it would be worth a mint now! I also had GI Joe and Johnny West dolls (remember Johnny West the cowboy and his Indian side kick? I don't remember his name), but didn't collect them or their accessories.

I like snagging vintage Transformers off eBay and some of the modern versions of the original characters too. Detail and articulation have come a long way!

I never got to get that one. I remember how jealous I was of one of my friends that had the whole collection with the "Bigfoot" and "Fembots" and other crazy stuff with that line.

As bad as I would like to have Voltron again, I'm trying to find any reason why I should buy it. It'll more than likely end up in my storage collecting dust but I really want it.

I've always wanted one. Ever since my nephew had one ages ago, I still want one. I'll probably have to look through e-bay or sumthin' like that....
