Is it just me or the stuff from the 70's and 80's getting cool again? I mean people are paying some good cash for old Walkman's! Just imagine, 10 years ago, we threw them out! I had one. I even noticed 70's era slot cars are getting some interest again. I think other stuff may get recognized again. Maybe us Tyco guys will be like Lionel guys and get new parts and what not. Just maybe.... Off the soap box.

Hey Redneck Justin,
I noticed this too, especially on e-bay of course. I saw a couple of super 630's on there without the handrails going for between $50 and $125! Wow, I am setting on a gold mine if I can get that much for mine. Nah, I like them too much to sell. But, as you said, Tyco stuff is a hot item now. I wonder for how long though? Thanks for bringing it up.
