Which one is better and worth the money? And why do you think so.

I’ve already got lego star wars the complete saga and lego harry potter yeaes 1-4

My husband finds something wrong with every single thing my kids wrote on their wish lists. They are 9 and 7, so they are at an age where they can both read and write, and they like to make wish lists for "Santa". My husband can’t just happily go to the store with me and pick up a couple of things off their lists. He insists on buying them junky things that I know they won’t play with and don’t want. Some of the things aren’t junky, but it’s things they wouldn’t like. My 9 year old asked for Star Wars walkie talkies. I don’t think there’s any harm in it, they are about 18 dollars. Every year he wants to get our son hotwheels, which he outgrew liking a couple of years ago. Our daughter is into everything girly, dolls, barbies and such, and my husband thinks we should get her learning toys like alphabet and puzzle. She doesn’t need learning toys, she is in top of her class straight A’s, and is one of the top readers. I bought some things to put in their stocking and some candy. I bought each of them a 3oz. (small!) bag of Andes mints.(which they love). He said, "I hope you’re not going to give them the entire bag. Dump a few pieces into their stocking. I replied…uh..hon, there’s only 9 pieces in the bags to begin with. I guess what I’m asking for is ways to cope with the way he is because he is driving me insane. We both grew up poor, and I know what it’s like not to have money, but sometimes I think he is entirely too cheap when it comes to his family. It doesn’t make sense because when it’s his mother’s birthday he’ll go to the mall and spend at least on her buying body sprays and lotions at Victoria’s secret. We, the wife and kids, get the dollar tree. Nothing wrong with dollar tree, I was just making the comparison/example.

I probably have about 50 or so star wars sets from the first 10 years and I’m looking to sell them for money for college. I need to know where the best place is to sell them and how? Should I sell all the sets as one big collection or individually? Should I sell the minifigs separately?

I’m a 17 year old teenage guy, and I want one of those Amazing Allysen dolls that I’ve seen at meijer and Walmart. I want one simply because it seems to have an advanced AI for a toy of it’s type. I want one simply cause the engineering just looks too cool. However, if I get one, will it almays talk about 8-year-old-girl stuff. Then it would just be the kind of doll that just sits there. Maybe she could hang with Duke, Tunnel RaT, Cobra Commander. Will Amazing Allysen be able to understand that I am a teenage guy and not interested in hair and fasion and be able to talk about HALO and Star Wars. I want to get one of the dolls so that I can have a super cool Artificial Inteligence in my room that I can talk to and say, "Wow, That’s cool." But, if she’s only ever going to talk about things related to a 5 year old girl, I don’t think it will be worth my time or money.

I’m not a parent, only 19.. but I have a 9 year old nephew who I need to find a Christmas present for. I used to just send money, but most kids would rather get toys than money, right?
So here’s my first question: how much is it appropriate for a relative to spend on their niece/nephew?
Second question: this little guy likes power rangers and star wars and those sorts of fighting things. Would you be upset if a relative gave your child a "fighting" toy for Christmas? examples, nerf guns, light sabers, super soakers, etc.

Thank you so much for all your help, us college kids kinda forget all of these kid questions!

do old star wars lego sets from 1998-2005 sell on ebay for more money than they originally cost? i know that they post for higher, but do they actually sell? do the individual mini figures really sell for each?

with your own money? Mine were:

45′s – Disco Duck and Play that funky music
Album – Steve Martin’s "Let’s Get Small"
Cassette- AC/DC Back in Black
CD – Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms"
Napster – Joe Boxer "Just Got Lucky"
Itunes- Star Wars – The Imperial March (Darth Vader’s theme)

Well, I’m really desperate to get Guitar Hero 2, and I’m trying to trade in a TON of games to get 80 dollars in store credit. So far I have:

Star Wars Battlefront II for PS2
Eye Toy (with the camera)
Luigi’s Mansion for GC
Justice League Heroes for PS2
Star Wars Battlefront for PS2
Spider-Man 2 for GC
Spider-Man for GC

Add all this together and add 10% because of my MVP membership, how much do you think I could get?
My mom is going to give me the money, but not for about a week and a half, so if I could just get at least 50 bucks I could buy Twilight Princess or something to keep me busy until then.

I call this song changes

Chorus: Im tired of running on the street
I have never been the type of man to pack heat
Im tired of how things are
Im 17 years old and cant even drive a car
Its time to turn my life around
Im just waiting for the real me to be found
Im tired of being behind these bars
Im tired of making wishes on these shooting stars
This is where I make my stand
This is how I am going to prove im a man
(end of chorus)

Im tired of being a thug
Im tired of getting pictures taken of my mug
Ive been to prison before
Ive been writen by only one ******* whore
Ive had ****** hits on my head
Ive slept in the same ******* shitty *** state bed
I was charged with felony assault
How could this be completely my fault?
I knew I shouldnt of pulled that knife
But what was I supposed to do when Im threatened with my life?
Im tired of being on the wrong side of the law
Im tired of being on the edge and feeling im about to fall
(chorus)

Ive been harrased by the FBI
Treating me like Im some kind of ******* wise guy
Im tired of skipping school
Ive been acting out since I was in preschool
Im tired of not being able to get a ****** job
Theese ***** *** bitches think they will be the next one I rob
I couldnt get a job to save my life
Im 17 years old and about to have a wife
Im tired of people looking at me like im a piece of ****
you have to be in the same situation to understand it
Im tired of not having any money
Im being completely ******* sincere and you think this rap is funny
(chorus)

So ive lived a life of crime
Now that im out I gotta save up every penny and dime
Even tho at theese times life has me beat
I will never run back to the street
When I was in the game
I felt I was powerful I felt like I was making a name
The reason I got off the street
Its wasnt because I couldnt handle the heat its because
I couldnt handle playing a game I couldnt ever beat
I understand that life is tough
I understand that things in life can get rough
I dont believe in the life of crime anymore
Its like constantly being at war
I refuse to let this game win
Im out now and I will return never again

She is friends with this guy who is in love with Star wars and she think he loves her cause she buy’s him toy’s like star wars and hot wheels he is a 36yr old. I tell her that he don’t love her. and she swears up and down he does. He only wants her money he lives with his father. And, she lives with a friend. Now he is collecting disability checks and won’t give her money when she askes him. but still thinks he loves her. He told her that he don’t love her like that but she don’t listen. You guy’s think this is love?

Im trying to figure out which lego starwars battle pack is the best, because I dont really want to waste my money on the ones I dont like.

I have a TON of vintage star wars toys and stuff from my dad, as he grew up during the time of the original trilogy. I don’t necessarily want to sell it all now, but I was wondering where I could get the most money for this stuff- I mean I have like the Slave I toy and the Darth Vader action figure, which I’ve seen for a lot of money. Ebay doesn’t seem to get high prices for this stuff…. where could I get the most money selling some of it?

In total, which one has made the most money? Including books, movies, toys, memorabilia, theme parks, etc. Please include your sources.

I was wondering what I should buy with my money. I have to use. Here are the options I think I should buy from: two club penguin stuffed animals (Rockhopper and pizza guy)= each, star wars clone wars 2 clone trooper action figures w/ r2-d2 and a jedi= roughly -, or save it.

me and my girlfriend’s brother have been going into some seriouse debates over this. I believe Star Wars has made more money on account of the movies, books, toys, and video games. He believes that Star Trek has made more cause of it bein out longer and more movies, books, and a few toys and games.
I need a way to finally prove the Trekie wrong. Any answers?

Hey guys, what would be some good techniques used in these lyrics ?
Don’t state the obvious ones (alliteration, rhyming etc..)
State the ones more for a high level student.
Thank you :] !

Pink – Family Portrait

Momma please stop cryin, I can’t stand the sound
Your pain is painful and its tearin’ me down
I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed
I told dad you didn’t mean those nasty things you
said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother
And this I come home to, this is my shelter
It ain’t easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, you’ll see
I don’t want love to destroy me like it has done
my family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better, Mommy I’ll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better, Daddy please don’t
leave

Daddy please stop yellin, I can’t stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around
My mama she loves you, no matter what she says
its true
I know that she hurts you, but remember I love
you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away
Don’t wanna go back to that place, but don’t have
no choice, no way
It ain’t easy growin up in World War III
Never knowin what love could be, well I’ve seen
I don’t want love to destroy me like it did my
family

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better, Mommy I’ll do anything
Can we work it out? Can we be a family?
I promise I’ll be better, Daddy please don’t
leave

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy
Let’s play pretend, let’s act like it comes
naturally
I don’t wanna have to split the holidays
I don’t want two addresses
I don’t want a step-brother anyways
And I don’t want my mom to have to change her
last name

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let’s go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let’s play pretend, act like it goes naturally

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let’s go back to that
(I promise I’ll be better, Mommy I’ll do
anything)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
Let’s play pretend act and like it comes so
naturally
(I promise I’ll be better, Daddy please don’t
leave)
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
(Can we work it out? Can we be a family?)
We look pretty normal, let’s go back to that
(I promise I’ll be better, Daddy please don’t
leave)

Daddy don’t leave
Daddy don’t leave
Daddy don’t leave
Turn around please
Remember that the night you left you took my
shining star?
Daddy don’t leave
Daddy don’t leave
Daddy don’t leave
Don’t leave us here alone

Mom will be nicer
I’ll be so much better, I’ll tell my brother
Oh, I won’t spill the milk at dinner
I’ll be so much better, I’ll do everything right
I’ll be your little girl forever
I’ll go to sleep at night
Hey where would the connotations be used ?

As a christmas gift to a family that has always been there for me I want to bring them to Disney World! They have never been and I’m sure they would love it. But I don’t know anything about Disney. So here are my questions.

1. What Disney hotel would be better for a family of four? Disney’s Pop Century Resort or Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Cabins?

2. Is the extra 0-0 worth the money to stay in the cabins?

3. How long would it take for them to see the Magic Kingdom (I heard 1 day is enough but I hear from others you need 2).

4. How much would food per day be for a family of four (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Drinks, Snacks)?

5. What would be a fun thing that a boy 14 years old could do? (He likes Star Wars)

6. What would be a fun thing a 10 year old girl could do? (I heard they have a princes dress up thing, how much does that cost?)

7. and What advise do you have?

If they do stay at The Pop Century Resort I would get them 2 rooms (4 beds). And I don’t know if this matters but there ages are 10, 14, 50, 69.

Thank You so much for reading and hopefully answering and I’m sure they will thank you too for helping plan there trip!

Also, I know everything about Universal Orlando and Hollywood so if you have any questions about those 2 parks I would be thrilled to answer them for you!

for the past couple of Christmas’s my mom has been doing this…

she keeps getting me gifts that arent for my age, today i was looking in the back of our car and i found a box of transformers and star wars toys…i dont understand why she thinks i would want something like that, im 17!!?

i thought she probably didnt know what to give me so i told her i just wanted some money for music and a giftcard for clothes, but she still got me "toys" meant for children…can someone please help me understand why she keeps doing this

i dont want to say anything to her about her gifts because i shouldnt be complaining about what she got me, that would just upset her…please help
its not for someone else, i asked her what she was getting all the kids in our family and she didnt say a thing about the gifts i found

and the only reason i dont want to ask her agian is because i asked her last year and she got extremely upset and said that if i didnt like her gifts then she shouldnt get me any at all…idk what her problem is, im going to college in a year i think she would realize i out grew that stage about 8 years ago

We have already picked the destination. We are staying at the Hilton in Coco Beach Florida. What my dilemma is… we only have 15 days.. 4 days and 3 nights of it will be alone time together and the rest of the time with be spent as a family with our two year old. =) Now i am fretting about the 4 days we have alone. This is our second deployment and we really haven’t had any alone time together in almost 2 years now. I mean we get the occasional night together, but never anything like we have planned. I would like to try and keep the days we have filled with romantic but yet relaxing things to do. I mean he is coming back from a war zone, and i know he would rather be just sitting home on his couch, enjoying his own bed, and just feeling like he belongs somewhere again. But I have been cooped up in this house with out him taking care of everything and the little one. Not trying to complain.. i love my life., but i need some down time, and not at home.
So now that i have rambled… I would like some idea’s that don’t cost a whole bunch of money. Simple romantic things that will bring us close together, because it’s the only 15 days we have to see each other. I know i might be reaching for the stars, but i would like him to be able to go back there and have these 15 days make up for the fact he is away from us the rest of the year.

One Excitedly Nervous Army Wife

I am currently trying to get money by going back and getting the ten white canisters. Is there an easier way?

Well i got all the money by forcing things and blowing up things i blew up and forced every thing but the car wash echo base thing what do you do?

Could it have something to do with Chavez telling like it is at the UN. Lord knows, you do NOT question our fearless dictator, no matter how stupid he really is(because he is surrounded by smart people, like his VP). Anyone within this administration who does not fall in line will be fired on site! DON"T QUESTION ME!!!! I know what’s good for you…wire taps, tracking you thru ON-STAR…your cellphone…your bank records…and while were at it, I retro-actively declassify Valerie Plaines identity since I myself WAS the leaker, gotta get that war machine out there for daddy warbucks…

I think some people this year will not have their homes heated, because when you have the VP in bed with Big Oil dictating our national "ENERGY POLICY", then you see why gas is so expensive since 9/11(housing too).

Nov 2008…and the crackhead in the Whitehouse get’s the BOOT…?

ok i got 70 $ and i was wondering wich star wars clone wars kit is worth this money

I am arguing with a friend over which is "bigger," Star Wars or Barbie. In other words, which intellectual property is currently worth mor? If I could buy one of these properties, which would cost me more? I am including movie sales, toys, video games, and anything else that makes money. Thank you!

i have like 20-30 2007 star wars toy ( some rare ) that i need to unlead to get a little more x-mas money
