Any of you guys collect toys? I've got a bunch of sealed action figures that I bought for one reason or another, but I really don't have any use for any of them, and no space either. Mezco Hellboy and other stuff. Any interest?
I've also got a copy of Earthboy Jacobus, which is by Doug Tennapel (Earthworm Jim, The Neverhood, etc) Looks great, just didnt care for the story. |

Other than my TMNT figures, pizza launchers, party wagon, and a few Megaman X figures, I never got into it all that much. I never had the money to sink into it, and I sure as hell don't have it now. :P
That's not to say I don't love the damn things; everytime I see them in a store somewhere I gotta check 'em out. Few people understand what I like about them, though. |

Yeah, I hear ya, that's why I have what I do. Jesus Christ though, I don't know why I needed a case of Hellboy toys, but they looked so cool.. |

I collect World War II tanks, planes, tank destroyers, etc.
Blame Panzer General for this!
There is a great store in NY that i go to, the models are assembled by experts.
I have no patience to put one of these babies together. |

I'm only posting this because I just wrote some image thumbnailing code and I am pleased with myself for it was somewhat easy (and if I really thought you guys would actually buy anything, I'd actually comment and give prices and list all the other crap that I left out that I want rid of YAR.)

Just for a size reference:
That's pretty kickass, it's a lot better then the one i'm currently using, which takes the size and link as a parameter. It doesn't work with phpbb very well.
I use a bit of ajax code to resize pictures (and links) on the fly in phpbb http://gamerhistory.com/forum/templates/mw3.js |

I had something like that javascript, was using it for a site design I was toying with but never got off the ground. Resizing-on-the-fly stuff is interesting, but I don't know javascript pretty much at all, so definitely not well enough to make it do what I want.
For my thing, it turned out getting ImageMagick installed on LL's crappy shared hosting was pretty easy, so it's then pretty easy to turn around and do thumbnailing - way easier than I thought it would be. So easy I'm kind of ashamed of myself for waiting this long to play with it.
That balrog is pretty badass, btw. Again, I have nowhere for any of this shit, but goddamn if I don't want one now :) |

I sell dumb shit on ebay! http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZurevilQQhtZ-1
The only video game related things are my complete Donkey Kong for Gameboy and my GBA with a hacked in Afterburner.. being a reforming packrat is tough when nobody else actually wants your dumb shit. |

I really hope you called it "Roger Clemens 1993 Startling Lineup figure" on purpose. |

I have a few posable figures, for display purposes only. I got Freddy Krueger, some TMNT, and a superman (Brandon Routhe version) figure. |

Nice!
I sometimes wonder how much my shrinkwrapped Legend of Zelda would sell for, and then I remember eBay, but then I remember how lazy I am and completely forget about it for another year. |

If it's the gold one, you could easily get $300+ |

I wasn't going to post any more 'look I sell crap on ebay!' threads, but, apparently Chex Quest is worth something! God bless Doom mods that come in cereal boxes. |
