    Just bought these 2 "Zombot" hot wheels cars. A robot with a gun that stands on his feet and is a car. How cool is that ? cool...

    Are you a professional photographer by chance ? Nice collection of cameras you have there.

    I guess I have not seen it all....
    Good memories looking at these cars - pretty cool.. but kinda nuts... does anyone collect GI Joe?
    That would be another crazy flashback... interested in Kung Fu Grip!.. :woot:
    Maybe the 6 Million Dollar Man?? A bargain nowadays..

    I had GI Joes, but I played real faked war with them. gasoline and firecrackers. Mine got burned and melted. Some of those are worth big bucks I heard.

    I am sure they are worth a bundle. Collectors are odd... I am one.

    I got my first GI Joe back in 1967. That holiday season also brought me Joe's Deep Sea Diver Set. Wish I had that now. It was my favorite Joe set.

    My older brother had the space capsule... we used to recreate the "splash down" in the bath every Saturday. If you got in together you both got the hot water.... lots of amphibious GI Joe battles!.. and left a ring around the tub.. (if you're 50+.....or older you remember)..

    I think I remember a TV Pawn Stars show saying the G.I. Joe nurse was worth a lot of money.

    That is cool and a cross collectable for space collectors too.

    You young-uns give away your age by collecting Hot Wheels. If you were my age, you'd be collecting Matchbox.

    YUP! Matchboxes. I blew up and burned a BUNCH of those. Same with friends' GI Joe's... they went to war on my farm growing up. Gasoline, Kerosene, Hairspray, any thing flammable ensured that no green army men, or GI Joes were to attack us. LOL. Hotwheels? Those were for my younger brother and cousins. They got destroyed too.

    Got that right. I was already too old/big to ride Big Wheels when they hit the market.

    I was born in 1961 and in the late 60's early '70's I got redlines Hot Wheels and loved them. My brother and I were very lucky to get a Hot Wheels Sizzlers track set. My older brother would always have to have the best car. I did not care because I just wanted to see the cars go around the track. I think my parents sold that set in a garage sale. I miss that set. As A kid back then that set was the greatest thing ever.

    Part of my Hot Wheels collection showing you the 4 gold plated vintage redlines cars...Splittin' Image, Twin Mill, Silhouette, and the Ford Vicky. Those 4 cars were in my childhood. I still like them to this day. I am 58 years old(young).
