    I know how that feels. But I found out that keeping these kinds of things for sale on auctions sites is the best thing to do. I have had things for years online before selling but what's best in the end is that you can get a buck or two, and make someone else happy.

    Now, regarding that particular Conquistador outfit... I know I would have been interested enough in it to cover all postage costs

      I have quite a few backer cards and boxes in my hall closet. When I was packing to move into this house, I had to throw quite a few away. It made me really sad. But I did keep some and I continue to save them. If the pile gets too big, I'll have to go through them.

        I'm the opposite. I throw stuff away constantly.

          I released all the CTVT second series monsters when I got them, years ago, and I still can't bring myself to throw away the empty cards.

            I'm still in debate in terms of holding onto the still attached clamshells for the 1st series of Lost figures and My Retro Action figures.

              I knew I wasn't alone.

              Well, I threw the package in the trash and then my son promptly fished it out and we cut out the art on the back for pirate trading cards.

                THAT is sad. CTVT packaging sucks so bad.

                    I have a bunch of empty AJ and Dinah-mite outfit boxes that I cannot seem to throw away. Anyone want them?
