I've got about 15 or so of these kicking around in the loft, and I'm going to have to either stick them in storage or flog them on. Are they worth anything at all?

I think they are 1:18 scale, but could be wrong as I'm at work at the moment and can't get back to double check.

I've just had a quick look on ebay but the prices seem to vary quite a lot, so I'm not sure what to look for in collectable ones...

Other alternative is to take them to your nearest children's hospital and donate them to the kids wards. You'll come away without a penny, but you'll have a better feeling in your heart and far less hassle than ebaying them.

It's Christmas and the season of good will and all that...

I'm tempted to stick stuff on ebay, and if it doesn't sell take it to local charity shops or hospitals etc

don't forget listing fees, final price fees and PayPal fees.
Then you will have to pack them carefully and then you have to take them to the Post Office,
and queue for ages
and also the new ebay random hold lots of peoples money for 21 days after your item has been paid for.

meaning you wont get your money for 21 days and they expect you to just send the items with a chance you wont actually get paid at all.
I've never had an issue with money being held. PayPal is the best way to buy/sell on eBay. Money comes through straight away and I drop it into my bank account smile
I can't say I've ever had any issues either.
