Hey all,

I just picked up this set from a guy local to Edmonton Alberta.  I saw it posted and emailed him right away.  He found the whole lot at a Garage Sale and picked it up for a !@#$ price... I paid $200 for the lot but for everything that is there I feel good about it.  When I met up with him I asked him what he paid and he told me that he figured someones grandma was getting rid of it and that he only paid $20.00 LMFAO We laughed and shook hands... I am a little sore until I look at everything I got

So.... Here is where I will need some of your guys input as to some items I cant figure out Smile

There is the Command Center with Shelves Pole and Console
Training Center with a lot of the parts
The Mummy Buggy Winch and misc

Eitherway Hope you all are well and look forward to your input

The Parts are all in very good condition.... The One FH that came is now back to life.... I used an older AT body and put the FR sweater with some Sea Adventurer Dungarees with a shoulder holster and AT logo chain.  

His Flock was MINT!!!!!!! he has a little scrape on the bottom of his chin but that's just a " Flesh Wound " ( That's for you Mark LOL )

$200 compared to the seller's price of $20 seems like a rip-off, but honestly--to get all those items in their condition at one time is a fair price, but not a great price and certainly NOT a cheating price. You were lucky to gather it all in one fell swoop. Be happy with your haul! Sorting it all out and getting the missing pieces and parts will give you more collector's fun and inspiration. I am glad for you!

I totally felt the same way Mate! lol... I was so happy because of the size of the pieces I never looked at before due to shipping costs associated lol... but local meant I will take lol... his initial online price was $400 but either way I do appreciate your response Cheers!!
