Mainly City memorabilla, like tickets/badges/shirts and loads of programmes. I got a few south Wales Echo magazine things somewhere, my uncle gave them to me, from the Eddie May era I think. I also have the Ninian Park one.

Yeah I collect Star Wars figures, I have got all of the Vintage Original figures of which there were around 120+ and I also collect the modern figures too.

At the moment I am concentrating on collecting the Classic Marvel Figurine characters. There are over 200 character figurines that you can collect and each fortnight for £5.99 you are sent a 9cm+ hand painted lead figurine on a stand, along with a 20 page magazine telling you all about that specific character. Sometimes there are Special figurines that are released which are much bigger than the usual 9cm figurines. There are around 20-30 of them and they cost double, sometimes treble the £5.99 that you pay for the 9cm figurines, mainly because the Special figurines are much. much bigger than 9cm. They are really class pieces of art, they are so well done and I would recommend collecting them if you are a fan of the Marvel comics, cartoons, films, etc. The website address to subscribe to this magazine and figurine is - www.marvel-figurines.co.uk.

So, if anybody has any modern Star Wars figures or more specifically any Classic Marvel Figurines they are wanting to get rid of, then just let me know, cheers.

I have two that are my real pride and joys really... One is a Death of Spiderman issue signed by John Romita (Co-creator of Spiderman) and John Romita Jr, and the other is an edition of Batman where he has his back broken by Bane (the new movie is based on it) signed by the one and only Frank Miller.....

Many years ago I did have the 'A Death In The Family' comic which saw Robin being killed off and would now fetch silly money... but... an ex girlfriend took it upon herself to burn it with the rest of my things when I left her.... if only the silly mare had had the sense to sell it she'd have made herself a fair few pennies.... Oh well... :roll:

I'm hopeful that there'll be enough there in value in my collection to put my daughters through Uni and have a little spare change left for myself when I do part with them all....
