1. He's pretty far gone.
I saw one a lot like this once before, centered around game consoles. One whole part of the room was a huge shrine to the original Mario Bros. It could even have been the same basement.

And I just spent last night on the phone for five hours defending the Star Wars prequels.

Hell, at least I just watch 'em.

10. Hell, his collection could finance a Death Star
Nice campaign slogan, BTW. For some five years now, we've had Nute Gunray in the Oval Office. The erudite puppetmaster might as well come out of the shadows (perhaps we'll be treated to a Senate battle on C-SPAN).

But, the copyright might be a problem.

7. Wow. It just goes on and on

And then you get to the Simpsons section...

It reminds me of a few years ago I went to a party at a very large house where entire rooms were dedicated to Star Wars memorabelia, and tables were set up with scenes from the movies down to exact detail. The walls were papered with figurines still in the package just like this guys. It was jaw dropping.

8. I used to know someone who had just as extensive a collection
of toy John Deere tractors, some of which dated back to the 1930s.

12. You know, maybe I go to too many estate sales,
Edited on Thu Sep-22-05 10:07 PM by crispini
because I see something like that and I think, "Just more shit for somebody to put a price tag on after you're dead."
