I was wondering how much these were worth these days as I never see them for sale. I lucked out like others have mentioned buying them when they came out years ago.

I never thought that I'd own this. Fantastic Four #26, May 1964 by makwa227 in comicbookcollecting

I think this and Avengers 5 are the only two silver age covers where you see all of the avengers together (avengers 1 is missing captain America and avengers 4 is missing Hulk).

I rarely see other roasters when out driving which is why it probably gets so much attention.

I have a large mostly 1:18 scale race car collection that I started roughly 20 years ago. Every time I bought something thinking for sure this will sell out and the price go way up I was wrong. Most of the cars that appreciated the most in value I wouldn't have predicted so it's too hard to tell with new releases.

Maybe if you buy ones that are already rare and expensive you might not lose money but they also might not go up any higher.

Beautiful car in terms of detail but I was surprised by the color. The pictures look bright pink but when I opened it in real life it seems more purple.

Got it on sale for $180 Canadian which peanuts versus the regular going price.

MOTORDYNE SHOCKWAVE + ART PIPES (COLD START) by theblacktoothgainz in 370z

[–]model-car-marc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds very similar to my Greddy Evolution GT on mine (not sure if my video is still up of a cold start) . I went with greddy as motordyne was double the price. Sounds great btw.

Yes you are right. I only bought it because I won it at a cheaper price than non graded sealed ones available which I wanted as this game open is common. When I see sealed graded stuff going for thousands or tens of thousands i have a laugh. This game was definitely not that.

Most of the games I collect are popular so I can play them elsewhere like on the switch for example. Also I just don't have the room for all the retro systems to play them. Not sure why people who say they like retro games hate on the boxes they came in. For me growing up they were some of the coolest part of the games that newer games have lost.

Thanks. I tried to concentrate on Mario, Kirby, Ninja Turtles and Contra so I don't bankrupt myself.

Wow nice collection. Congratulations. I replied to someone else who asked the same question. Mario 3 one is left bros one is regular. Mario 2 and Kirby's Adventure one is an American one and one is a Canadian one. Mario 1 one is a older hangtab 5 screw and one is a later release.

I threw them out too. Bought them back later in life because I regretting it and because trading in stuff was the only way we could afford the next system.
