Thanks to some comic savvy viewers, I now realize that the stamp on my Star Wars #42 was a good thing. It’s a Mark Jewelers variant. Crazy! Thanks everyone!

Get that CGC graded. It will be worth it! An 8.0 FMV is about 300. But can command much more. This issue is the first appearance of Boba Fett and the first full appearance of Yoda in comics.

Obviously you know what you are talking about. But I think some of those Star Wars comics are worth more when they went from 30 cents to 35 cents. That might be only the first issue price change but it might be worth looking into.

Hey Froggy l wanna tell you a sad story 😢 which will break your heart ❤️ as it still does mine 😢 Back in the UK in 1977 when l started collecting and you weren’t even born, l was offered Luke bubble packs, Darth Vader bubble packs and a zillion other original Star Wars merchandise from a toy shop which was closing down ALL @ £1.25 each ( $1.00 -1977 conversation rate £ to $) and I said NO!!!!! The BIGGEST mistake in my collecting career 😢

I start all my action figures on auction for $.99, so I let people pay what they want to for the item. If everyone priced them at 50 cents then there wouldn’t be enough to go around for everyone. I’m also a collector, but I sell duplicates or things that I don’t think are good enough condition for my collection.

I've collected all my life, bought and sold many many things and just watching your video, that for whatever reason, appeared on my feed, you are an honorable buyer. That is a very hard quality to find in an adult dominated hobby where the dollar is king. Don't ever lose that quality.

Nice haul Froggy! We still have our last 17 R2-D2 with scope and kept the backing board. Back in those days, my son and I spend many a day seeking out to complete the collection of figures. He treasures that collection and we both treasure the memories of finding a hidden SW gem at a store on our Saturday quests.

I made a similar purchase in the UK about 7 years ago from a lady in Manchester. Her Grandson had passed away and she was looking to memorialise him with funds from the sale. 4 people went to look at the collection at the same time as me. Apart from myself not one of them spoke to her about her grandson or asked about the history of the Collector. You did a good thing here mate, well done

Killer shoes maaaaan! She's lucky you came to the rescue. Honest and fair. Birds chirping and Star Wars memories. Thank you for the awesome video and knowledge.

Mind blown over what you got in that haul for sure. Congrats Anthony you are now getting the benefits of being well known. Infinitely jealous of this and yes that R2 is the sort of thing dreams are made of. Was watching a nice auction over in Hamilton Ohio tonight where some things went pretty decently priced. While others, well I will just say I am not sure what they were thinking bidding over 300$ for a loose sand person. This is the way of auctions. Great video and may have to hit your booth when some of this goes out.

froggy has got to be the most respectful person i’ve seen when it comes to interacting with others. gotta respect it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 such a gentleman 💪🏻

* WOW ~ Hope you & she are both happy with this buy. Lots of fun to look at. So many things near new.. Glad you are learning to your benefit.. Would love to sit & look thru all of that.. FUN.

I was born in 1975. I remember when I was about around 8 my Dad started buying me Star Wars toys. The ships, action figures, etc etc. I had a lot. Somewhere around the early 90's...I sold all of it with my GiJoes, Mask, He-Man, Thunder Cats...and what not at a garage sale for literally nothing so I could buy Baseball Cards. I am 48 now...and I still have those worthless baseball cards.

$1000 you got an amazing deal... The vintage stuff in original boxes is amazing... good luck in your quest to buy a super car.

Cool collection, I also respect the way you put everything back neatly in their respective bins after inspecting them.

Great Star Wars buy. Made me look at my stuff. Found the R2D2 with the lightsaber and coin! Wow!

Nice pick ups. Especially the #42. Just bought a 9.0 at a comic shop for $300 so you did well. Your videos are great. Keep it up sir.

Hearing you talk about your favourite SW related merch for your personal collection was nice and reminded me of my favourite part of my SW collection: the Comic 2 packs and right after that you show the collection and what do i see? Two of my favourite Comic Packs: Luke and Mara from Heir to the Empire and Luke and Deena Shan from Rebellion, ah the memories.

Wow, that was an awesome collection. 😍

Wow Froggy, incredible haul! Love your vids! You're always fair and honest, not trying to "beat" people. Was that 1st appearance of Boba Fett comicbook a Mark Jewelers? I think that's what that stamp indicates, not sure. 🔥

I had the Rancor as a kid. Man, I loved that thing. l always took care of it and always played with it. One day I thought I outgrew it along with all of my other SW and He Man toys and I put them in a donate bag. Now, I really wish i would have kept them in the attic for my kids to play with. Seeing this Rancor really rips my heart out.

Great video! Part of the fun is always going through everything and it’s great you found some gems!

Hands down best flipping page on the Tube. Period. 😎

Nice assortment of Star Wars collectibles, I know the modern stuff is not worth all that much, but looked like there were a few pieces that will catch peoples eyes. The Luke Skywalker focus was sort of cool. Even those incomplete vintage figures might bring a few bucks, as if they are in good condition, people might be looking to upgrade what they have. Nice find on that Popup R2, took me years and years to find mine as I actually got the lightsaber first, and then finally found the R2. For whatever reason, those ones always seem to have bad stickers.
