First and foremost I want my family and friends to get saved. Next, I want to serve God in whatever capacity he sees fit. Third, I want my life to have meaning.
I want to love more, forgive more, be thankful more and especially love God more.
As a old curmudgeon who loves to collect I’ve often asked what do I want to find to complete my collection bucket list? So here goes:
I want to have all of Marvel/DC and other comic book publishers Bronze Age and Silver Age comics books. A few Golden Age comic books would be nice too.
I’d love to find all of the original series Star Trek collectibles I had as a teenager-trust me, there were a lot.
The original Star Wars toys, play-sets and vehicles would be nice.
Other movie and TV/movie memorabilia I would like to have include Lost In Space, The Wild, Wild West, The Man From U.N.C.L.E, James Bond and The Batman TV series.
Several DVD collections I would like to own include all of Canon, Mannix, The original Hawaii 50, Barnaby Jones, The Man From U.N.C.L.E, Have Gun-Will Travel, Lost In Space, Murder She Wrote,
Simon and Simon, Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea, The Time Tunnel, Land Of The Giants, Beretta, Ironsides series, the original cast Star Trek movies, The Teen Titans first animated TV series and The Legion of Superheroes animated TV
series
Several books I’m looking for are Taschen’s DC Bronze Age and its giant DC book, TwoMorrow’s 1940’s and 1990s comic book history, Mike Benton’s Horror book,
DK’s releases of pop culture and comic book history.
Of course I need comic book supplies, a few bookcases and oh-I’d love to get a steady supply of Hot Toys and Sideshow 12-inch figures, the Toy Biz Marvel figures, old model kits, toys,
diecast, magazines, 1960s and 1970s singer/songwriter albums and trading cards.
Since my blog now has a readership of over 200,000 a month, not counting my Linked-In, Facebook, X and Goodreads sites, I’d like to expand my blog to review even more merchandise-of
all types.
Sure, I know it’s a big ‘wish list’, but I figure why not dream big?
I know that it would probably be easy to go out on E-bay or any other collectible merchandise site and find and buy everything I have listed.
The only problem is, I don't have the money and even if I did I wouldn't spend it on my want list.
I'm a nickle an dime sort of guy. I would rather wait and find the items I want at a yard sale, in a trash heap or trade for them with collectible items that I already have.
As a married man the money belongs both to me and my wife. I would never dream of spending large amounts of money on my hobby when our money would best be spent on paying bills, helping our family, tithing and meeting financial responsibilities.
Don’t get me wrong I already have a respectable collection. Still a few more goodies would be great.
But, wanting somethig is a far cry from needing something. Priorities must be set.
I appreciate all the publishers and manufacturers that support my blog and especially my readers.
