The artwork by Jose Garcia Lopez is briliant. A great collection.

Very nice, but where is your Justice League of America Skyscraper Caper game?

Man, that is one wickedly impressive collection you have going there. It makes me miss my carded Super Powers collection, even though it was small potatoes by comparison. I commend your dedication, sir.

Looking at those Canadian Shell gas station figures really take me back to my childhood. I remember begging my parents for a toy to no avail every time we visited a retail store. Whenever they gassed up at a Shell, they were assailable to my wishes. All of my SP figures came from those gas station visits. Thanks for bringing back great memories, Chip.

Wow! That is really impressive. A true labour of love. Or massive OCD.

But then I think we all suffer from a certain extent of that…

Great stuff, and some stuff I never even heard of before!

I remember the small cards (Supes, Bats, WW, Robin) being in KB also. Were they different somehow. Main point, fantastic collection man! It made my morning looking through it. Looking forward to Secret Wars too!

I’m pretty sure there was a Canadian small card gas station Flash. I seem to recall standing there debating buying it for what seemed like an eternity, but didn’t and had to find it much later at a toy show. I would defer to you and not my memory from 23 years ago, thogh.

awesome collection! although as a woman, i gotta say that if i ever got in your bedroom we’d spend the whole time talking about your collection. …so i guess that’d be half the battle–lost.

Awesome collection, Chip. Well done. Man, I had totally forgotten about those Burger King cups until I saw them here. Thanks for posting, it was a fun read!

Love this Chip! I’ve been wanting to see your SP collection for the longest time. You keep them very neatly. Great stuff

Very very impressive Chip. I was wondering if we’d ever see this after all your little hints about it. I wish I had the willpower to keep MOC figures but I just have too much fun opening them.

What No vehicles? loser! Great Collection Chip! Super Powers, MOTU, Starwars and Dino Riders are the only thing I could ever want a MOC collection of. I love the non figure stuff the most, especially the puzzles and posters. I remember seeing the book & tape set before, (Think I had one as a kid)but I’ve always wonder how man different books they made? Do you plan on collecting all the non figure stuff like the comics and VHS tapes?

That’s beautiful, Chip–I didn’t ever collect SP (I was a Star Wars fiend back in the day) but I always drooled over them. Fantastic collection, great setup.

Thanks for sharing ‘em.

Deeeelicious! What a wonderful collection of my most favoritest toyline ever and of all-time!

Chip – really nice collection and display – I am a huge SP fan/collector, but barely have a full set of loose figures – your collection of carded figures is truly impressive – I’m green with envy!

Just to return it a little, the two jewels of my collection are a Aisle Header store display (the big one, two-sided with the heroes and villains in action poses set against a city backdrop) and Paris Cullin’s original pencil and ink artwork that was used for the Series three insert poster. Unlike the poster, the artwork features the All Terrain Trapper!

If you’re interested, drop me a line and I can send you pics! Mike Mensinger might be interested in seeing those as well.

Thanks again for sharing your great collection!

I have been waiting to see these, and they look fantastic. As amazing as the carded collection is, I really love the framed posters. I also love how all of the design and color of the card backs look. they are way better than anything that you would see on the shelf today. Thanks for sharing this, Chip. I can’t wait to see more SP and Secret Wars!

Really sweet stuff Chip and I really enjoyed your writing too. I love displays that aren’t all cluttered up and your collection certainly falls in to that category. Only another toy collector can appreciate what you managed to put together which is why I took the time to write this message. I’m looking forward to future blogs.
