    I wish I had that laying around in my storage unit. Have wanted that thing forever.

      Yeah when I think about it, I got mine for about $50 but that was pre-kids, so it may have been the 90s. Haven't seen one pop up in a long time.

        $50!!!!!

        Wow.

        One hasn't come up in ages. I think the last one went north of $600.

        Ugh. Make a copy and send me one.

        Please and thank you!

            Agreed and why I never bought it back then because I did see it on the store shelves. I loved the figures and more so the cool rubber monsters they made to go with it, but the castle had not much of any real playability for my young self - of course if I knew then what I know now.....

                  Great sets! About 50% I was already aware of. The other half were nice to discover.

                    It seems like The Ghost Command was the big hit of that list.

                    My favorite has got to be Bugs Bunny.
