Can you be more specific so I can clarify? Sorry just so I can be clear because I definitely know some of these are not legit. I’ve never really had the chance to go through my collection properly.

The photographs of you with the stars are great.  Those have a value that will never depreciate.  You were very lucky to meet so many of them.

Yes I’ve only ever done so few conventions and the ‘higher’ end celebrities were at black tie events. Conventions are expensive.

could I ask if you could name what company these were purchased from? also, could you post one or 2 on here to start? just to see how we feel about authenticity as a community.. Its important to start with authenticity 1st but paying for an authenticator to go through 60 items will get expensive. If they are all fake, you will be paying a ton of money just to be disappointed.. post a few on here so we can get an idea of what you are working with. Id suggest taking baby steps with this and be patient. It wont get figured out overnight

I’ve bought from several companies over time. Some I bought in shops when I should’ve known better and ones were bought for me and I know these are not real but I have quite a few fakes but it’s learning the process. 

I’ll post just a couple a day or maybe just one at a time as it won’t take so long. I have about sixty odd to go through though after authenticity I’d struggle with valuation as there are so many figures to work with it’s hard to know how to work around this. 

At least the ones deemed fake I might be able to get money back for which is good.

I think they can be seen in Robin's photographs. Look at the De Kelley.

I always wondered about this particular piece myself. Lesson learnt. One of many. As I say I was a very naive person back in the day but now I hope I am better. I am very selective who I buy from now.

Thanks for the tip, I didn't even think to look there. Robin, you have some cool items. The Bozo signature takes me back to when I 1st started collecting TTM. Im not sure who actually signed that one but still a really nice item to have

I wouldnt mind if you posted all 60 at once in one thread or even separately over time. You seem to have a nice mix and I think it would be fun helping out however I can with opinions
