Now we're talking. Play and Display. That's what collecting is all about for me.


Exactly, and while I feel a little bit too old to play anymore (such a shame cause I would have had a blast with these in my younger days), display and collecting is still fun, and when Karla and I have kids of our own, I will let them play and I will play with them.

I personally always open and display my toys. I'm not buying them to make money, I'm buying them to annoy people who grew up.

Oh, I hear you. I'm certainly not in it for the money either. I just tend to loose the accessories and I have no real space to display the figures by themselves. It's just so much easier for me to keep them in the packaging and hang them on the wall. Plus, I think they look so much neater in the package. The overall design is very nice. wink

I finally caved in and got an Irina figure at Target today. Might get other figures later on. I wish they'd done a Marion from KOTCS, but if they never get around to making her, the old Marion will have to do.

I've turned my attention now to the 12-Inch Figures. Saw these photos for the 12-Inch Colonel Dovchenko and thought it was so fantastic that I better get me Indy as well. I picked up Whip Cracking Indy and for 20 bucks it's a goof figure with a pretty good likeness. I plan to go ahead and get four so I can send off for the mail-way Ark of the Covenant.

i have a crystal skeleton redemption form with all 6 stickers if anyone is interested in it. im the play and display type and ive already sent out two redemption forms for myself, so i figure getting rid of the third wont hurt any.

i put it up on ebay bc i know the send-away-belloq from the 80's became a highly sought after collectors item and i know this thing will be worth something. but yeah, full form with all stickers included and still blank for whoever gets it. heres the link:

im not usually the type to try to cash in on this thing, but i dont want to be kicking myself when its all over either!

theres no reserve so check it out!

HS29 EDIT: I had to remove the link. Advertising, buying or trading is frowned upon out in the open forum. If someone is interested in the auction, you are more than welcomed to handle it via PMs.
