Much as it pains me to link to the Daily Mail, this is a sad end to an amazing collection.

Wow, just wow, I hope that it brings in a tidy sum & goes to good homes

The toy auction catalogue will be available to view online from this weekend. See WessexAuctionRooms.co.uk

Holy Cow.

Impressive. But I really hope I find good homes for most of my stuff and leave my heirs with a much smaller problem. I suppose leaving enough stuff to make an auction feasible is the alternative.

Oh my! Now I feel like I don't have hardly anything!

It's sad that he died, but the collection being made available to others who share is love and passion for the subject is good news.

Beautiful. A true labor of love.

He's gone to the great lead mountain in the sky.

Wow! If I was in England I would definitely go to this auction. The total collection seems under valued but then again we gamers can be pretty cheap.
