Advice for helping my parents sell our UK G1 toys

Apologies if this post is in the wrong place.
Wondering if any of you may have some advice.
My UK based parents are downsizing and I've been helping them (remotely) sort through all our 80s toys, including our large Transformers collection.
They are wanting to sell them and as they are not interested in spending time listing individual toys I was hoping some of you might have advice on who they could contact in terms of bulk buy.
Everything is in very good condition, most everything is complete, and all in original boxes for those that came in boxes. Don't have the cards for those that didn't.
Full list is here:

Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I believe they also still have my near complete run of the Marvel UK comics too.

Best value for money would be to sell them individually, as they don't want to do that you'll have to source someone who buys whole collections. Pop into the UK sightings thread and see if anyone knows of someone in the UK who might be able to help them out.

Alternatively, there would be UK based Facebook Transformer B/S/T groups that may also be able to point you in the right direction.
