Leave them as is? Or crack 'em out?

It seems as though, someone, at some point, will have nostalgia for them, and want them.  That person is not me.

My nostalgia for these is based on the times when, as a kid, we'd go down to the lake for a weekend. There wasn't much "civilization" around, but there was a Walmart, and during the 90's, the Walmart had tons of these, up on pegs on an end-cap near the toy section. Starved for comics in a remote location, I definitely picked up a few. Good memories.

I remember buying a couple of these at Toys R Us back in the day.  The X-Men Phalanx Covenant, X-Men 2099 #1-4, and TF Generation 2 set (really a GI Joe set with TF G2 #1).  Definitely have a soft spot on my head for these.

Cool pick up. I admire your energy. I’ve got a shorty or two of these myself that will remain entombed.  Id like to think you have bigger fish to fry but if you can get big bucks for a graded copy I doubt doing so will keep you from heaven.

You need the 18 book value packs for those occasions...

Indeed it is.

Why 2 copies of X-force 6? 

Do you know what BOOF 3 is?  I see Image Boofs, but nothing Marvel.

Such a random selection of books.

And in case your curious about the covers like I was....
