I still have the F-14 Tomcat toy for GI-Joe
You say that like it's a bad thing? I just checked what a pre-painted 1/18 Tomcat costs, several hundred euros (I found it funny enough after searching for a picture of the Action Force F-14, or Skystriker as it was called).

I still have my old Transformers collection. I wish I had kept the boxes and not lost all the weapons! They're worth a bloody fortune now!

Yeah, childhood modifications can ruin a lot. I sadly also painted in my manual that came with F/A-18 Interceptor (classic Amiga flight-game with vector-graphics). My original Lemmings! Amiga-game (first version!) is however complete and in good condition. I also have the Amiga-version of Flight of the Intruder that also came with a paperback version of the original book, although I can't find the book.
