Absolutely no rush on my end.  I'm not actively looking for one and am in no hurry at all.

And I hear you on the burden thing.  I had a health scare in February where I found out I have a genetic heart condition… my case is apparently pretty minor and I have a great chance of it never affecting me in any serious way, but it carries a small chance of sudden cardiac arrest and it does kill about 1 o 1.5% of people who have it.

I previously figured I’d enjoy this stuff until sometime my 60’s then sell most of it, and just keep the vintage stuff.  But, before I got to the specialist who said my case isn’t severe and he’s not that worried about me, all I could think about was dying suddenly and leaving my wife with 5000 action figures, 250 statues, and a ton of Lego to deal with…

I’m collecting, I’m enjoying it… but at some point it will have to go.  Hopefully not for a long time yet.

That’s fair.  And I know it’s better if Target sells this stuff.  But also 95% of my TVC buying is Amazon and Pulse… so it wouldn’t be a huge loss if it didn’t affect the overall line.

I’d be more worried if this was the first time this has happened at a major retailer, or if they were having a hard time selling anything but Lando.  Surely Star Wars was moving better than $20 Transformers ReAction figures and stuff like that.  If it’s not back in a couple months I’ll start reading into it…

I do have a buddy who sold an entire collection that way.  It was easy and quick, but he didn’t get top dollar by any stretch.  I guess it’s a matter of whether you value speed and ease or money.

Oh man…. I’m sorry to hear about your brother. 


As for selling this stuff, I’ve always used eBay but the other one that people always seem to recommend is Facebook Marketplace.  But I don’t use Facebook so I’ve never tried it.  If I have something I don’t want to ship, I’ll use Craig’s List still… but that’s rare.

Let me know what you’re looking to get for the UCS Death Star II.  That’s the only OT UCS set I don’t have and I’d be interested.

Hooray.

The website just says estimated ship is Fall 2024.

Kill me.
