                Wow! Cool stuff. Is that Hulk/Spidey Adventure town for Action figures or is it just a model. I really like the Batcopter and Ben Cooper costumes!

                  It's a playset that comes with little 2" cardboard figures that you put on stands, it's still sealed..

                    So very cool!!! I check those storage unit sales from time to time myself. Congratulations on such a nice find.

                    The carded Super Powers are just awesome to me.

                      From fellow digger to digger: great find, Luey!

                      Just curious, did you know going in to it that the storage unit sale would have vintage toys? I normally avoid storage unit sales, thinking they're generally filled with more contemporary items......

                        I had a tip from someone who had previewed the sale, I hardly ever go to them either... The amount of new figures in there was unbelievable... Xena, Xmen, Buffy, Spice Girls, Batman, Star Trek, etc etc, all recent stuff that I try to avoid... I think they sold for under $1 each overall...

                            very cool find! one doesnt come across something like that everyday!! imagine the super powers stuff is already 20+ years old. it just seems like yesterday when i first saw them hanging on pegs. which super power figures were in there?
