Toy Hunter

If you like shows like American Pickers and Pawn Stars, you should check out a new show on Travel Channel that premieres Wednesday night at 10p.
They ran a special presentation of the show a while back just to see how it would do, but the official shows starts this week. As an 80s kid, I really enjoyed the first episode.
They've got it up on the site if you'd like to check it out.

If you don't want to watch the whole episode, here's a short clip of the guy searching for Thundercats rarities.

I saw the first episode. It was pretty good. Cool to see all those classic toys and to find out how much they are worth.

I still have a c3po head full of star wars men, but they are all heavily played-with. I also think I've got every He-Man toy somewhere.

Just did a conference call with Jordan Hembrough, and I told him about how awesome my toy collection was from the early 80s. I told him that even if he didn't want to buy anything from me, he could still come over to play. He laughed and said he'd love to.

I'm going to get my mom to make us sandwiches and pick up some Ecto-Cooler.
