My name is Carl Ohlsson, and I have been collecting toys, comics, and merchandise since the early 90's. I am 25 years old, married, and have two children. I have a huge family. (Think that Greek wedding movie, only bigger, and a lot crazier.) I collected just about every toy line made from the late 70's to today. The bulk of my collection was made up of Masters of the Universe, G.I. Joe, Star Wars, and Transformers. At first, I just had a few things displayed in my bedroom, and the living room. Then I filled up my mom's attic and garage. Then, I got my own place, and I turned the spare bedroom into a toy display room. Then, I filled my attic and garage. Before I knew it, every little nook and cranny in my house, was filled with stuff, and I had full storage units as well.
Well, as some people may know, my home (along with all of my stuff) was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. No one was injured, but I lost everything I had ever owned. The insurance company.....did nothing. So basically, I had to start all over. Almost two years later, I am still living in a FEMA trailer, without a place to call home.
I am always buying Masters of the Universe and the like, as well as all lines from the 80's.
Every once in a while, I sell a big ol' lot of stuff, to make room for something else.
I am also always looking to trade.
