    so you just got 10,000 in cash to blow...

    just thinking of a good topic to start and thought if someone gave you 10 grand to blow..not on bills, the wife, house payment etc..just to blow..what would you do with it ?

    my purchases:

    1. boxed kenner Alien ( have one loose but want one boxed)
    2. boxed Rodan ( have seen them in person but never pulled the trigger)
    3. boxed Kraken ( see Rodan)
    4. Micronauts Aliens boxed/carded ( ampzilla etc)
    5. Boxed IG88 12" ( only one needed for me , have seen tons of times but )
    6. carded Black Hole figures..whole line ( just because I love the toys)

    the rest would be spent at Cloud City on misc. greats they have ( vlix etc.)

    Spring for a Mego Meet 08 trip for myself and 5 MM members! With 10K we could have a nice, small blowout!

      Half of it would go towards purchasing some limited edition Bill Melendez Peanuts Art I have been eyeing.

      The other half would go toward a family trip to Europe.

            Hey,
            Sigh. Probably would put part of it into a Roth and pay off debts with the rest. Hate to be a realist, but I'm boring that way.
            Now, if I was told I HAD to spend it on fun stuff:
            1) Set of Alter Egos
            2) Addams Family pinball machine
            3) Restore my vintage Coke machine
            4) Toys toys and more toys for my kids.

                    I would take a family trip to Kenya and make sure that I go on a "real" safari, visit Zanzibar and dip my toes on the shores of Bububu Beach.

                        Besides going to MegoMeet,I'd treat everyone to those giants hamburgers I heard about on the Travel Channel they have in Pittsburgh.

                            I'd spend 10K on....

                            -Boxed complete Dragun, Raydeen, & Great Mazinga Shogun Warriors

                            -Complete Fisher Price Garage, Castle, Sesame Street, and A Frame house playsets

                            -All the Fist Fighter Megos I don't yet have in nice loose condition!

                            -Hotel & plane tickets to go to DisneyWorld

                            -A plane ticket for Meule so he can finally go to MegoMeet in '08!

                            And if I had just enough left over to squeeze in a decent Bulletman figure that'd be sweet!
