Last post issues...
Hi everybody,
Now I'm not sure if some of you might be having the same issues I'm having but since my last post was about arcade games, at my job the post has been blocked because it relates to GAMES. I tried to edit the post to get around it but I'm not sure if it's fully working.
However the post can be accessed from my Google + profile. So Google "Mike Speer Blog" or "collect the uncollected blog" and you should see the entry there and access my profile. From there, you can click on the link for the update.
What a pain in the ass I know but it should work for now. Let me know if anyone is still having issues!

The NEXT GEN of collectible Arcade Games
Ello again everyone! and welcome to another update of Collect the UNcollected...
Before I move on, I just want to thank everyone again for checking out my blog recently. The more you stop by, the more it helps me and the more I can keep doing research and talking about the great geeky stuff we all love to bullshit about.
THANK YOU!!!
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
So I've had an idea to do an update about arcade games for a while. As I started researching, I had an idea to do another take on it.
We all know of the classics like Pac-Man, Galaga and Xaxon, but those are old news. In the future when there is a new generation of millionaires to collect wild things like arcade games, there will be a new feeling of nostalgia for and a new set of games that give them that feeling. I'm pretty sure when I go through this list, a lot of you are going to get the same feelings.
Arcade games are not what they used to be. They are trying to make a come back but the regular two button and a joy stick games are everything but extinct. Games today are all about gimmicks. Racing games, games that you need helmets to wear or a giant shotgun to use. Those games are a blast for sure but I still wish i could walk into an arcade and play some of these...

Mainstream Comic Gems...
Howdy Everyone!
I just want to say THANK YOU to all of the new viewers and followers. Since I started the twitter account @TheUNcollected, the amount of views have shot through the roof!
Spread the word and spread the love!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Ok before I get started, I just want to mention I just got back from spending a few days down at the Jersey Shore and came across that new Batman arcade game. It's a racing game where you just blow shit up. There are three levels, Mr. Freeze, Bane, and Joker. The best part, it has EVERY SINGLE BATMOBILE to choose from. I'm talking 66 Batman to The Dark Knight Rises and even the Animated Series and Arkham Asylum. That part alone makes it a blast to play. I saw the new Transformers one but didn't check it out.
Maybe in the future I'll do a post about the most valuable arcade games out there...ok let's get started...

SDCC 2014!
So it's that time again. The time for the one and only San Diego Comic Con.
I've been trying for days to hunt down the best collectibles and to be honest, I'm not really that excited about any of them. Which is a bummer. Some are cool, don't get me wrong, but it's tough to decide which ones are going to stand out above the rest.
There are a lot of main stream exclusives this year. Main stream doesn't equal rare. Most of the time, anyway. So let's take a look at a few of this years collectibles that stand out to me.

#500!!!!!
So I reached 500 page views today. Took a year, but since in a span of a year i only have 9 updates i'm going to chalk that up to not that bad.
I will be having a new update soon. I'm trying to think of a topic to cover. Possibly action figures.
Let me know what you think

Howdy again everyone.
Quick update on my re-sell ventures.
I've sold ALMOST everything on eBay that I put out there and I didn't really learn anything I didn't already know.
The easier it is to obtain, the harder it is to resell. My R2-Q5 and Doctor Who collectibles were extremely easy to obtain and took a while to sell. I broke a little more than even with them. There was a ton of these things already out there to sell so in order to have mine stand out, I had to drop the price a few dollars. Next time, i'll be on the look out for those really hard things to grab.
One thing that I was looking to grab was the Killer Bootlegs "Ewoking Dead" collectible action figure. There was only 18 of these to give out. I was number 20 in line. I've seen one go for $179 on eBay. I think it was less than $20 to purchase at NYCC. But that goes to show you that the harder it is to grab, the better your turn around. Just like the Walter White action figure from Breaking Bad. They were sold out on Thursday. Selling for double what you could purchase it for.

CGC Signature Series...pshh
I'm sitting here at the mall Christmas shopping waiting for my girlfriend. I'm looking through the pictures I have of my graded comics and it made me want to talk about something that really grinds my gears.

Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments
Hi again everybody!
I've slacked off on this blog almost all year but I really want to start getting the ball rolling. I've finally made the move of actually selling items and it has been working out great. My last entry has some links in it for the items I've been trying to sell. It's also taught me a few things...
HALLMARK KEEPSAKE ORNAMENTS ARE MONEY!
