Ma and pa Monkey are moving house, and have discovered a bag of old Star Wars figures (along with some very battered vehicles).

Worth anything? What’s the best way to get rid of them?

Give them to me. 😉

ebay probs, worth a bit, but not much unless you are lucky and have some rare ones or they are in good condition

send pics ill have em off ya!! 😉

Ebay.

I beat you to it, kimbers.

My lad will have ’em!

What have you got and how much do you want for them? Email in profile.

They’re at the parents, I’ll take some pics next week when I’m there. Maybe 30 or so assorted figures mostly from Empire / Jedi I think.

Tell you what Harry the Spider, I’d like ’em to go to a kid that’ll play with them and they really don’t owe me anything (they were well played with all through the 80s!) so I’ll have a good look and see if any are worth anything (I suspect probably not) and eBay those for charity, then you can have the rest for postage. Seem fair to you?

That would be very kind of you. Thanks.

I used to have mostly Britains Deetail soldiers and Knights.

My Dad got me the Waterloo British Officer with the flag. He said if I looked after it he would buy the regiment. I did look after it and I didn’t get the regiment :-(….40 years later EBAY :-). I now have an Army in Plastic 🙂

The faded one is the original…

I have Britains soldiers from 40 years ago too. Waterloo, knights, cowboys and a marching pipe and drum band.

Three things I wish I never “let my mum” help me get rid of as a kid;

1. Star Wars figures, ships and playsets etc
2. Lego city, space, medieval, Technics and other stuff
3. Action Man and assorted vehicles/accessories

Would happily spend hours playing with them alongside monkey jnr.

Oh wow, Britains figures! I still remember the set of three knights on horseback I had, well made I recall. Memories.. 🙂

I’m keeping all the Lego 😀 Just rather see the Star Wars stuff be played with.

2. Lego city, space, medieval, Technics and other stuff

A million times this.

My gran sold all mine from under me one day when I was out because I was “too old for it.” Pretty much all of my ‘toys’ as a kid were either Lego or computer / video game related. I had a metric shitload of the stuff, pretty much all of the Space models, most of the major Technic sets, thousands of pounds’ worth. I think she got £30 for it. Gutted.

The Star Wars stuff will be played with if any of it finds it’s way to my lad. He is obsessed!

Check your email HtS 🙂

I sold a bunch to someone off here a year or so ago. Got £100 IIRC for a bunch of unboxed original figures and boxed later edition stuff that was far less rare plus loads of other random bits.

Will check later. I’ve got no access here.

No worries 🙂

Got them all together now…

Any excuse to sort them out 🙂
