V THE RESISTANCE DEFENDER RIFLE TARGET GAME SET

With a superhero bear, some vehicles, and superheroes hanging from my ceilings, I conduct business and live a nerd's dream life!  Yes, I work outside of my shop 2-3 days a week; but, my overall life's work is within these four walls.


In my line of work, I come across many rare, expensive, and highly sought after collectibles.  In this instance, I bought this game without even knowing it's value.  I put it on my shelf and just let it sit there until one day I looked it up.  It had sold for over $1000!  This rare collectible is called "V THE RESISTANCE DEFENDER RIFLE TARGET GAME".  It is in good condition, although the box has some stains on it.  It is still playable and still valuable.  

This is just one of the rare items that I carry.  

My next blog will feature some artwork and figures that are very popular.

Yesterday, I acquired four new items.  I am so excited about these items and I hope you will be too!  They are for sale, so if you want to contact me to buy them I will leave my contact information at the bottom of this blog.

My favorite of the four is the 1984 Vintage Hall of Justice from Super Powers Headquarter Collections ($150).  It is in good condition although out of the box.   The Hall of Justice was the headquarter of operations for the Justice league.  This series came with 12 figures, 3 vehicles, and this Hall of Justice Headquarters playset.  This is the first series that came out.
The Hall of Justice playset features a launch pad, jail cell, laptop, elevator, and many, many other fun features!  

I also have acquired the 1986 Super Powers Delta Probe 1 ($45); also in good condition out of the box. This vehicle was rolled out in the second series.
Both of these were manufactured by Kenner.

The Super Powers 1984 Batmobile is also for sale ($75).  Again, in good condition but out of the box.  This cherished vehicle from the first series is one of the nicest!  The front has a battering ram and the back has a claw that is spring released by pushing a button.  This is a very fun toy or collector's item.

Lastly, I have the 1974 Mego Batmobile created for Batman enthusiasts ($100).  A beautiful, good condition collector's item that you should not pass up!


I can be contacted for any of these toys and I can ship them to you as well.  Please contact me at 414-476-5596 or stop by The Toy Dimension at 5925 W. North Ave, Milwaukee Wi 53208 and ask for Henry.

Thank you for reading and I hope you continue!

About Me and My Store: The Toy Dimension

My name is Henry Smith and I own The Toy Dimension in Milwaukee, WI.  I have done many jobs in my life including KB Toys and Renaissance Bookstore.  I opened my store 17 years ago on November 4, 1998.  This store is my life and I am trying very hard to make it succeed.

My goal is to get The Toy Dimension name out there; spread awareness!  I have hundreds of figures and comics.  I sell figures from Star Wars, WWE, Marvel, DC, Star Trek, and many other series.  A lot of these figures can be bought on my Amazon or Ebay store.  Milwaukee Journal Sentinel even featured me in their newspaper one year.


Throughout this blog, I will feature many of my figures that I sell with a description and "back story".  Art, pictures, and other interesting blurbs will also be posted to pique your interest.  

Their will be at least 5 posts a week if not more.  I you enjoy my blog and keep coming back!
