That's awesome. Seems like what I do sometimes when I miss a drop, haha.

Pawnstars is one of my guilty pleasures.

Saw this when it premiered and haven't seen a new episode since. Wonder if they will make more.

yeah hard to do an entire series about toy collecting, the hobby is very niche and the audience harder to nail down.

I've seen a few episodes and IMO the show is NOT compelling AT ALL!! I might even say boring...Goes to some guys attic finds a $5 transformer and sells it for $10. Big deal!

It's only interesting to see people collections. The show would be MORE interesting and compelling if we heard the stories of the collectors and how they pieced together their collections.

SUPER contrived and lacks interest. This show is no Pawn Stars or American Pickers that's for sure. It's more in the crap show category with the chumps who bid on luggage or storage units.

I that case may I present http://www.syfy.com/collectionintervention. Be warned, it can be a traumatic show for a collector to watch.

B.T.W. Brian Flynn is in the first episode.

MY wife and I watch the show, but hate a lot of stuff that lady does like try to get people to sell there most prized piece.

I only watched one episode of that Collection Intervention...makes it look like collecting is a inherently bad thing. Any hobby or activity in excess is a bad thing!!

A show that focused on a collectors love for _____ and the reason behind it, his hunt for his grail piece, and how he lives with his collection(or her) is a show that could be cool. Like Super Collectors!!

Awesome new show
