My Rocketeer Collection Update 12/17 new layout and info

I been a hardcore finhead for the past several years. I guess my fascination started when I saw the Rocketeer on opening day when I was 6 years old (I'm 27 now). My collection started with a cheap applause vinyl rocketeer doll that I received for christmas. Like most childhood toys, it was thrown out by my parents a few years later. For my 18th b-day, my brother surprised me with the same doll. From that day on I decided to just collect rocketeer memorabilia, and to reconnect with my favorite child-hood movie. Since then, my collection has grown enormously.

I have more items aka props and things but they are in boxes..If you have any questions, please feel free to ask..Fyi, Some areas in pictures will be blurred because they contain personal information of crew members, disney prop house barcodes et etc...

You certainly live up to your name, EvilRocketeer. Posting that can only generate the sinful feeling of envy in any FinHeads who see it!

Amazing collection!
 
Re: My Rocketeer Collection aka my finhead obsession (Pic hEAVY)

Fantastic collection!!:eek
I would be proud to have 1/10 of that.
Do you have the 3-d comic book with "3-d audio" cassette or activity books that Golden Books put out with the eight pages of color pictures from the movie in the middle?
There was also a little plastic container that looked like the Rocketeer where you pull off the head to pour out the gum.
