Default Welcome to Manland

Been working from home during all the madness. Figured Id share my new cave with the boards.

Anyone else trapped at home, feel free to share yours as well!

Crossed the 100 full size Bears helmet mark not long ago

Good to know there's a backup NFL HOF available.

Well done.

You need to charge admission just to enter your own house.

That's a crazy impressive collection. I think I'm even more blown away by the 80's toy room.

Some of the early pictures of jerseys and clothes folded up - looks like a retail store. Thanks for sharing your collection.

Just a little. The sick thing is, I have a garage full of other junk that didnt make the cut.

I have a couple dozen full size Pro Line helmets of random teams, if anyone is looking for a certain team cheap, shoot me a PM and Ill check my "stock"

The toys are a fun side hustle. Crazy what cool stuff you can find at flea markets and garage sales

I was shooting for a Pro Shop look, what with the retail racks and such. People complain they dont have space to display jerseys, I think I found a good way.

Dan Hampton would sign your bottle of RC when you purchased one at one of the many liquor stores in Chicago he set up at. $18.99 gets you a bottle signed by him and he will sign one other item.

I went through a dozen bottles of RC last fall. I grew to love it!

Not much Joe. I mostly went back in time and picked up all the stuff I liked/wanted as a kid. Star Wars, He-Man, Super Heroes, Junk Wax and the like

I picked up some cool things when Toys R Us was going out of business.

The toughest part of the room was tracking down an original Circus World Toys Windy the Clown head. Anyone remember Circus World Toys from the mall? The giant clown head would blow up a balloon, and you'd hold that balloon while you shop for toys. Good times!
