    Does G1 Megatron come with a gun?

      A gun using a gun. They should’ve just had smaller and smaller guns that transformed and held each other like a Russian doll🤣

      G1 Megatron came with some weird looking flat gun that he never used in the cartoon. The reissue came with the big flat chrome sword as well. I think they just sort of slipped onto his fists.

    I sold about 20 G1 Transformers and 30 GI Joe Figures with 10 vehicles for $80 AUD at a market back in 1995. I needed the cash for a custom surfboard. Worst mistake I ever made.
    Almost as bad as selling 3 drawers of original Space Lego, complete with with boxes and instructions for 50 bucks. The lady I sold them to had refilled every box with the correct parts and instructions and was selling them for 20 to 80 dollars each in her second hand shop. All 40 of them.
    I had that Megatron with all the parts, but dont remember there being a gun or a sword. Plus Soundwave had all his tapes. Optimus still had all the accessories in the trailer. 3 mail order only Autobots. God Im an idiot.

    I couldn't see anyone the mentioned it but the guy that was talking about Megatron with a sword it was a Japanese exclusive pack as far as I'm aware the first time he came with the sword was in the convoy vs Megatron double pack snd the sinhle Japanese release both VFX versions from 1985 .
    I had to go and look as my megatron as a kid had a metallic silver sword and a lot of my friend did ...maybe we just got some Japanese stock here in the UK around 17:31

    As a child of the late 70s and early 80s, the Star Wars action figures were something I saw every kid at school playing with, but I never owned myself. I asked for them at Christmas more than once, but Santa never brought any. Had I owned them and played with them, I’m sure I would be a diehard collector today. Instead, I am a record collector because I had my Mom’s records to play with while growing up.
    For the worn action figures that aren’t put out on the store display, what is the eventual plan for them? It might be neat to put together budget sets of played-with figures for those who don’t have deep pockets. In some ways, the worn figures are cooler because they were loved and played with. How many collectors today wish they still had the worn figures they played with as a kid?

    close to 20 years ago I sold my Star Wars collection on Ebay. It included moc figures (about 20 or so) comics (Marvel 1-10 plus Dark Horse and even one signed my Mark Hamil and Carrie Fisher), some vehicles and loose figures and some 12" figures. I got about $1000 for it but I paid for shipping which was over $100. I highly regret it.

    • @carn1fex_
      @carn1fex_ 2 месяца назад

      Thats how it goes. And are you talking about POTF1 or POTF2?
      OTF2 ain't worth much today.
      Most Figures are like $5 Bucks but most stores and on ebay many are selling them for $10-$20...
      I sold my POTF2 Figures and they were 'lose' almost 20 years ago. I had all the Figures (not every '2 Pack') and every Vechicle and Playset.
      I sold it for about the same or even a bit more and i don't regret it because it would not be much more today.
      But i'm glad that POTF2 is kinda 'cheap' because i'm back to collecting all of the figure 'moc' to hang them on my office wall at home.
      And i'm glad im from Europe, Germany because 'shipping' in the US sounds like hell. lol
      Shipping in germany and to other EU countrys is cheap af and always has been and you always have 'Insured shipping'.
      Paid like $10 for shipping and it's now like $12 in 2024. lol
      There are no 'restirctions' on how big the shipping box can be - Only how 'heavy'.

It is really helpful for me to pick out your videos in my feed (I sub to a lot of toy channels) if your thumbs have some common element. A logo, a unique color/tone, someone's face. Completely up to you. Like Daniel Day-Lewis, I will find you. But this might help others find you?
    Keep up the good work!

      We are at a show and made a split decision to change the thumbnail to have more confidence in the video traction which turned out to be the right move. Sorry you saw the one time we had to make a call while on the road.

    Maybe start doing a deposited lay away for people to buy the more expensive toys . If they change their minds before final payment and ask for their money back you guys keep the deposit. It's only fair

      They have a sign up at the counter that says they do layover

    I recommend longer videos. Entertaining though.

      20 is a perfect sweet spot for youtube. Stats say most people only watch X amount of videos/mins a day in between life happening

      They are 4-5 times longer

    Get out of here with your sword. Come on. People shouldn't argue and learn from shop owners like this instead of thinking they are the expert. We get this a lot when people think their items are in perfect condition and we point out flaws and they can't accept that their items aren't perfect and will continue to argue about it.
