    Great episode! Glad we got an hour time slot. Kirk seems cool has hell, and it would have been nice to spend more time on his collection. Those Karloff and Lugosi props were sick!

      As a Cincinnati boy, it was cool to see a lot of the local stuff from here. Several of my friends have already been featured on the show!

        I love horror, so I really enjoyed this episode.

        When he was in the prop trailer, I was leaning forward and pointing and shouting at things for him to show me.
        Sadly, the show was not interactive.

        And if I locally and affordably found a Super Naturals Lion & and Tomb of Doom, I think brain vessels would burst in my head.

              Caught this on the DVR tonight. This was probably my favorite episode so far. I had no idea Super Naturals was so desirable. I seem to recall that line pretty much hit with a thud, and Visionaries didn't do much better. It's interesting to hear that the "lesser" 80s lines are now getting more popular in the aftermarket.

              Seeing Hammet's home was like watching his book come to life. Loved seeing a nice close-up of that AHI Mummy. I have a deep appreciation of these thanks mostly to Brian.

                I watched it tonight, that was great! It was awesome to see some of Kirk's actual collection room, but of course wish I could have seen more. I don't recall seeing a carded Mummy jiggler before, very nice piece!

                  That was a fun episode. I think I smiled through most of it. All the toys in the background--especially the guy with all the 80s toys... so cool.

                  I have exactly one figure each from Super Naturals and Visionaries. I always thought they were cool little oddities but obviously not enough for me to get more than one.

                  The painting on that Hasbro Frankenstein game was beautiful. I noticed in the background of one of the closets Jordan was digging through later there was a Hasbro Dracula game.

                    I love Super Naturals. I had the entire line when I was a kid. Every single piece produced. As cool as they are, he over estimated their value. He did the same with the Munsters Lunchbox.

                    I saw a sealed Tomb of Doom that sold for $125. That is a great price if you ask me. Then I saw a seller relist a $200+ one for around $300 AFTER this episode aired, so this show is most certainly having a negative effect on the market.

                            My DVR only recorded the first minute for some reason. I'll just have to stare at my Jordan poster until the next episode. I hate Time Warner

                              Hey Steve. It shows again tonight at 8:00 on the Travel channel. In High Def it's channel 976 on our Time Warner box. And I agree. I am no fan of Time Warner either.
