This is actually my dream, and it's big, but not out of the question...I want to add on to my game room, and I want to paint a mural in my bar I have now, and have it be a pool scene, with all the old cartoon characters, like hong kong phooey diving off a diving board, and The great grape ape hanging in a tree, and The Topcat cooking on a bbq, and maybe Magilla Gorilla, and Huckleberry Hound holding a limbo stick, and have trees, and a landscape scene..and then in the addition, I want all the superheroes, painted on the walls in a really cool mural, with Isis and Shazam, and I want Flash Gordon going across the ceiling. I think it would be awesome. My sister-in-law is a muralist, and her work is incredible, so that's where I got the idea-after seeing things she has done, and I know if I can visualize it, she can do it..so that is my dream to some day have in my house. I wondered if there was something major that any of you could have in your lifetime, what would it be?? If the sky was the limit?? It is fun to dream.

Probably a Michael Jordan rookie card, and a fistful of Microsoft shares. And the first 45's from the 4AD label.

I wish that I had room in my home to have it dedicated to 80s movies and memorabelia. I would love to have posters, soundtracks that are so hard to find they may not even exist. I would love to just decorate it and be able to tell the story of how I collected it. Wow, now I really want to start collecting things.

I want to collect the old Coleco tabletop version of the arcade games, like Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Junior. I always get out bid!! But I am determined to get one.

My two favorite arcade games, Punchout and the original Star Wars.
There might be a few other things, I would like my old atari games. I would like the 50 or so Mark McGwire rookies that I ripped up because they were USA cards and I thought they were worthless.
We are DEVO and DUMB

You just put in the name of the game, and it will pull them up on Ebay, they are made by Coleco, so you can put that on there-to narrow it down. I bid a Donkey Kong one up to $70 last night, and still got out bid. There aren't alot out there, in mint shape that have the battery cover on them, with no rust in the battery compartment, so make sure you read the description.
I also want to get a Mego Isis doll, a mint one is rare and can sell for up to $300, there are 3 of them on Ebay right now.
