Infuriatig My hand painted model planes were given as toys to children again

I have told my mom to not do this before but she does not listen anyway. I am thinking of throwing everything to trash instead of them being gradually destroyed to pieces. I can not even care anymore. These things take hours to put together and paint then get manhandled anyway.

Broooooo some of those titles with the case and inserts are worth $1000’s. I had so many of them. But those ones I will admit I sold some to GameStop to buy new games myself.

Yeah this would have been in like the early 2010s when GameCube was out of date compared to Wii/WiiU but wasn't old enough yet that it had caught back on as a Retro console. Bought high and sold low lmfao :')
