Despite efforts to keep track of everything, many here have lost some part or accessory for a figure or vehicle. What have you lost that makes you want to kick yourself?
I was lucky that my wife found the "Best of..." DVD pack soon after it was released. She only noticed it because of the included video camera which she knew I did not have. I was able to complete the M.A.S.S. device, but unfortunately at some point the crystal disappeared. It's likely that after it hit the floor one of our cats found it and thought it was a toy for them. Now I have no idea where it could be. |

I've lost my mind, but I don't feel upset about it.

D.Compose! That bastard just disappeared. I had all 3 of the big Inhumanoids but D.Compose just vanished one day.
And most of my vintage Joe vehicles. I often wonder what happened to them. My parents would throw shit out & I didn't even know it right away. Of course that was after I got out of collecting toys around '88. As far as losing accessories, I lost most of the them. Too many tiny guns to keep track of.

A 1997 Pimp Daddy Destro. I was 7 at the time, and remember I left im on a shelf somewhere by the fireplace. Haven't been able to find him since. Originally I was just upset that I lost my only destro.
Only when I joined here did I find out it was basically the rarest figure ever. |

A whole Z-Force ATC back in the 80's. I swear I put it in the garage, then years later it just wasn't there. My Mum probably ditched it when I wasn't looking :(
Even more anoying is that I still have the Joe APC version, and it just isn't anywhere near as good in my opinion.

I think it was my asshole virginity.
I logged on to this site called hiss tank and now I'm surrounded by assholes In terms of toys? When I moved when I was about 9 from Ohio to Connecticut 2 boxes didn't make it on to the truck. One marked Star Wars, the other marked GI Joe. It was 1988, literally all of my ARAH collection and Kenner star wars toys were left behind.

For me, it would be my Tonka Hand Commander plane from my childhood. One day it was just GONE. Years later, I asked my mom if she knew where it might have gone and she actually remembered throwing it away because the trigger didn't make the propellers spin anymore. I was kind of irritated by this because:
1. The propellers had only ever half assed work to begin with! I got it second hand at a garage sale. 2. With all of the things that she's forgotten during the years about my childhood, she remembers THIS??? Anyway - joke's on her cuz I bought it years later (2 years ago I think) on eBay! |
