    I think I'm gonna be sick...

    My wife just confirmed my worst fear.

    She accidentally THREW OUT my mint Super Powers collection when she cleaned out the garage a couple weeks ago. They had a junk pickup day and she went overboard getting rid of stuff.

    All those beautiful figures...21 of them...in the trash.

    Oh no! I'm so sorry! But I doubt they stayed in the trash for long. Some trash masn probably found them and gave them to his kids. I know this sucks, but maybe your toys are making some little kid happy.

        ^Dude, my stomach is literally turning and I have the shakes. I may actually throw up.
        I know they're just toys but I feel like crying.

            It's my fault too. I reused a box from when we unpacked that said something else on it. Usually all my toy boxes are marked. I think I also lost some Ninja Turtles.

                        That is something of a gut punch and every collector's nightmare. I hope that it's an error.

                            Vintage Outer Space Men?

                            Oh my. . .

                            I'll admit that I had to look at the date this was posted to make sure it was not April 1st.

                            I think I would be digging in a landfill somewhere.

                            Anyway. . . you are in my thoughts.
