Quote HistoryQuoted: Lots of this, lots of cars and the stairwell down into the basement. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/108158/s-l500-2702488.jpg These where used as whipping sticks on us when we where young. We eventually found all that where left and burned them. ???? |

When Marx reissued this set about 25 years ago, I bought one at Toys'R'Us. My 10-year old son was with me, who already had a collection of dinosaur toys (like below) from Dave's Prehistoric Rock Shop. He was not impressed.  Attached File |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Fortunately my mom saved EVERYTHING from when I was a kid. It’s fun seeing my own children play with the same stuff I used to, on the same floor/fireplace/etc. These were probably the most special for me….Jurassic Park T Rex, Monsters in my Pocket (way before Pokemon), Micro Machines Star Wars, and 90s Star Wars action figures (I built the pit for my kids) https://i.ibb.co/GCY4fc5/DC354963-EFD5-49-CF-96-EF-1-A02-E748849-C.jpg https://i.ibb.co/mTJjcWW/C0-A02-EF8-24-F4-4303-B2-F9-5-B5-A8-C06-EB22.jpg https://i.ibb.co/dgFrhP9/2-F4-F82-C3-7-C19-457-F-987-C-8-B05054467-F8.jpg https://i.ibb.co/n19mtsD/B25-E5557-B4-F3-4968-AEDB-05-AB9-A45-FA73.jpg I still have all of my Jurassic Park toys and Monster in My Pockets, too. The only pic I have of any of them is this of a few of my JP dinosaurs.  I should have sold them a few years ago when just those pictured would have fetched ~$2k. Now? Not so much. Did you lose the Dino Damage piece from your T-Rex? People make reproduction pieces now. There's apparently a market for it with the originals commanding a premium. @Pair_of_ACES |

It was in near perfect shape, again this is just the box, the dino was long gone. I sold the BOX on ebay for nearly $500 and had bidders from all around the world clamoring for it. You ought to consider selling it and buying something cool with it haha And yea the damage piece is long gone |

You ought to consider selling it and buying something cool with it haha And yea the damage piece is long gone Yeah, the Carno with box and all accessories still goes for close to $2k. The prices dropped significantly with the economy, though. I might be able to get $300-400 for it since I still have all the "capture gear" and "dino damage", but I missed-out when they were going for twice that. The Omega T-Rex in the center were selling for several hundred, too. Now, a fraction of that. I still plan to sell nearly all of my old toys. Just waiting for a potentially better time. I'm also hesitant to deal with selling them on eBay since the introduction of the reproduction dino damage pieces. I can see a scammer with a repro piece claiming I sold them a dino with the repro and not the advertised original. The original piece significantly increases the value. @Pair_of_ACES |

I remember when Wild Bill from this toy burned up in another toy plane when I emptied about 50 black cat firecrackers into a single container inside and lit it.
Good times.

I had the G.I. Joe mercury capsule and the major Matt Mason crawler.
I also had an M14 and a .45 that shot plastic bullets that you'd put on the cartridge. Someone posted a photo of it once, and it brought back lots of happy memories. |

Mine goes way back to when The Rifleman tv show was popular, early 60's.
  It had bullets that you pushed into the case, spring powered that went out the barrel when struck with the hammer. You also put Greenie stick em caps on the end of the case, so you got a bang when fired. Held about 7 rounds in the magazine, and fed as fast as you could work the lever. My dad would have me demonstrate when friends came over. Great memories. |
