As eBay auctions goes, this one’s a doozy. A widower in the US has just
managed to sell her late husband’s collection of Transformers toys and
gadgets for $1 million.
That’s around 274 toys in all, comprised of 101 Autobots, 81
Decepticons and 92 licensed products. Many have never been out of the
box and anyone – like the fat guy in Toy Story 2 – who knows anything
about toy collecting will know just how anally important that can be.
There’s a great, if somewhat sad, story to the creation and
disposing of this collection but it makes for a good read. Jump now and
bring a hankie.
If a million dollars is too rich, you can always opt for the animated Transformers t-shirt. -Martin Lynch
