I think we could all say the same thing about many things we owned back then. The problem would be keeping them New In Boxes. The damned things were played with 'til the paint wore off them, the wheels fell off and the hair pulled out. I had many original Hot Wheels, along the the wheel-shaped carrying case. If they were mint, do you know what they'd be worth? If they were still in the box, they'd be worth hundreds each - and I had dozens of them. Same thing with my sister and all her Barbies, Skippers, Scooters and the rest of the Barbie family. Problem is, she gave them haircuts, their arms fell off, etc. etc. IIRC, I may have helped with the pulling off of arms and legs... <vbg> Hindsight is 20/20, eh? cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
