So we actually had a lot of the old Star Wars toys and the smaller G.I. Joe ones, too. Dad sold the Star Wars stuff in the 90s for chump change, and then the Joe's he just stuffed in a duffel bag and dropped off at a charity store. Subsided rage aside, I do wish he would have at least sold them for more. 

As for stuff I wish I still had, I would have liked to have kept my DBZ stuff. Nothing crazy valuable but a lot of rare stuff. I had misprint figures (like a black-haired Majin Vegeta) and limited edition sets we got from Japan. Had practically every Irwin Toys figure, including ones like Tapion and the Rejuvenation Chamber with the Golden Goku figure.

Those are cool. I was never into DBZ, because I was already an adult when they started with them. But I totally feel your pain on the Star Wars and G.I. Joe's. I gave all my stuff to some asshole cousins back in the 80's, never to see any of it again.

I used to have a ton of random action figures, and I would make them wrestle. I had a whole wrestling federation going. I still randomly get the urge to play with action figures, but I've long since lost all of them. :(

Some of my old WWF and Mortal Kombat toys, especially if they didn't have red marker on them from when I tried to make the play-fighting more brutal.

I wish I had some of my WWF stuff from back in the day too. I had all the big bendable figures, and even the ones, now stay with me here, they had wrestlers that were small, and they had finger holes on their asses, and you used them for thumb wars. Terrible marketing.

I wish I had my collection of He-Man products, along with G.I. Joe and Star Wars. Had the complete collections of all three. All figures, vehicles, forts/palaces/castles/etc. 

What are some toys you wish you still had? To display or sell. 

The football & hockey cards my Mom pitched.  There's a chance that a card valued today @ $10K was in the batch.

I wish I still had a Creepy Crawlers set. (We had the first incarnation, where third degree burns were just part of the fun.)

The worms and bugs came out with a really great texture, but the colors always blended together - I'd like to see if now that I'm an adult, I could actually make a ladybug that looks like a ladybug

I kinda miss my old Power Rangers toys.

The older Megazords were badass (Despite them mostly just being giant bricks).

Been thinking about picking up some of the Super Mini Pla Megazord model kits. They generally look alright (though they do look kinda cheap) and tend to have better articulation than the older toys.

lol I sill have most of my cherished child hood toys... although when I got to a certain part of child hood all I needed were Legos, video games, and Nerf guns... The Nerf guns didn't really survive, still got the Legos and all my old video game consoles and all the (good) games. Still got the original Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy III, and Chrono Trigger SNES carts. Immensely proud of that. :D There's some things that I don't think I'd ever sell unless me not selling it meant me being homeless, you know?
