Stunning and Brilliant Find mate!!!.....

I think those finds are priceless as they have such a different story....

Some guys have the same figures they had when they were kids... some people find figures and do some research and then try and ask a stupid price for them....

Then there are those who finds a "toy" that's taking up space which in turn forces them to drop him along with more stuff off ..... Yet they have no idea the journey he has been on...... Enjoyed a life as someone's best friend and favorite figure... then onto a shelf or a box for storage ... and so on...

This is a GREAT FIND!!!!!!

Len

Nice finds chaps !!! fantastic bargains cheers cheers cheers cheers 

Vam sometimes turn up in charity shops but it's very rare these days, I've had a few vam & uniforms in zee past (Stormtroopers). I managed to find a talker vam (flockie) last week at a booty, it came with a nice stack of original uniforms including knock off stuff and MAM kit, the whole lot (box) for a £1!!! I almost fell over when the woman told me how much lol! 
I also got a mint dressed MAM for only 20p!! I'm working on a post to show what I've found last week Wink 
I live, sleep and dream boot sales/charity shops now, goodby ebaaay! lol!

Wow! You paid a quid for that VAM???

Damn vintage -- bringing down the price of 40th...clown 

There is a wee part of me that is GREEN with envy. Wink 

But the best part of me thinks it's so cool that you have been able to liberate this Joe and give him a good home for 1£.

Well done, brother!

More luckies this morning, there is a big plastic bin at the local charity shop and it's always worth a rummage. Under all the usual bit's of plastic and fluffy toys I found this Very Happy , it's in great condition just a little of the aerial is missing, how it survived intact under all that other stuff beats me, not bad for £2.00 Very Happy
