The most valued collection item house burning must decide?

Vaders_Child · Oct 8, 2011

The whole title is supposed to read "the most valued collection item house burning must decide what do you save discussion thread" deep breath and exhale.
Well i know this has come up on most forums prior to this but hey for the sake of it lets revist this common question....
Mine would be my ledy stuff and **** anything i could pick up in time tbh.
My little pony stuff will have to burn damn it eerrrmmmm i mean she-ra no care bears, oh balls

Got to be my Tri Yak but I think I would be running in and out until I was on fire to save the rest !!

My Display Cabinet with all my vintage inside and then I would happy to see most of my modern Burn! :lol:

As long as everyone was safe from the house and I had rescued other more important items like photographs, important paperwork and documents etc and I could jump back in for five minutes to nab a few things..in all honesty I would probably grab four or five of the most expensive items instead of trying to find something like my childhood figures or my first MOC lol, I would grab something I might need to sell in order to repair my house..

I think if anything terrible happened to my collection I would probably knock it on the head and be done with it all..it might even be liberating :lol:

stuff I could fit in my pockets

I would go for more sentimental things, as the insurance would cover the rest

wow Joe - that is a very sensible answer :shock:

Joe · Oct 8, 2011

I don't have insurance that covers toys here unfortunately lol, I figure if I am going to lose the majority of it I might as well grab something I can sell for $600 or more should I need to over my childhood 8D8 for example which let's face it is priceless but also worthless lol!

PGowdy · Oct 8, 2011

My ewoks of course! 8)

The childhood figures I think. Let the rest burn. Nothing I can't reacquire given time.

sith-smith · Oct 8, 2011

Nothing.

I'm going down with it!

:lol: I love it - like a good captain with his ship

Wow this is a toughie Darren. I only have about 10 items in my collection now but I couldnt bear the thought of any of them going up.

In all honesty Id probably be in the same boat as Gary but if I had to decide Id probably save the Series 1 Android 3 Pack Test Package as this would be practically impossible to replace.

trilogoman · Oct 9, 2011

I would take my 2 Princess Leia trilogos (and my Kenner Marion Ravenwood, sorry)...

e30318is · Oct 9, 2011

Good shout on the Marion ravenwood

For me it would have to be my Tri logo Jawa Moc. Might try and sneakily stuff my afa ledy jawa out in my pocket too lol!

Keep in mind, i have so much plastic in my collection I'd imagine that the fumes would render me unconscious and as a result i'd burn with it

Lol! Gary I think the prospect of death by plastic fumes is probably a little easier to handle for you than deciding which SINGLE piece to keep from your collection, you would burn making your mind up anyway :lol: :lol:

And if given the choice between saving the missus or your collection? :wink:

Pete, knowing you Ewok freaks, no doubt you take all ur furry little friends to bed with you so they'll be easy enough to grab!

edd_jedi · Oct 11, 2011

I must admit that SW stuff would be pretty far down my list. Apart from people obviously, the first thing i'd save is my backup hard disk as it has practically my whole life on it - photos, music, documents etc. A lot of which is literally irreplaceable, not "irreplaceable, but £100 on Ebay too" :lol:

I'd also probably rather save my vinyl than my SW stuff

I don't think any of my (now quite small) collection is unique.

mr_palitoy · Oct 11, 2011

I think retrieving the wife would be top of my list...
