WOW, Aquarius!!!
That really was a big haul!
Did they need a U-Haul (company that rents trailers and vans, well known in the USA) to deliver it to you?
Haha! They all came in a pretty big box,I was excited to rip it open

years - not since I was little! Tell your parents that they are awesome for buying you all that Rainbow Brite stuff. Any idea how much they paid? I'm sure it was cheap.
I know! RB stuff is getting harder to find (except eBay) seems that even 80's stuff is easier to find than 2003+ stuff. Anyways, they live in Western NY-Randolph/Jamestown area. Doesn't seem to be a lot of serious 80's toy collectors in those areas. My parents said that they paid less than $20 for everything.
There they have huge block sales and usually we get lucky a lot. We visited there a few weeks ago and I found a RB flat sheet, a couple Carebear cousins, a pound purry, and 2 Charmkins. The year before I found a Strawberry Shortcake picnic basket music box and another Puppy Brite.
Also, been getting lucky here and there at flea markets. One had a RB book, Starlite figure (80's), and a 10" RB doll. Another, one woman has a gigantic pile of all sorts of toys. Carebears, Popples, TMNT, GI Joe-anything, you name it. I bought a Hammy hat Sprite and she has more RB stuff at her home, but she's been kind of slow getting them there. (She's an older lady) It was there that I found a Rare MLP "Mimic" for only $2.00. (Since then, her prices have been a little higher.) Hopefully she can get stuff in there so I can look through it. Hope she has Rarer stuff
Everyone has an opinion and some of them may be different than yours. BUT that doesn’t make them wrong only different.
