Car boot find Marx Horse and ES Toys figure

Just picked up another couple of goodies at today's car-boot fair a Marx Horse with saddle and harness for 50p and a ES Toys figure for 50p plus we made £185.00 selling so a very good day was had

Here's Hawkeye with his new mount









and here is the ES Toys figure I picked up I've given him a bit of melon that James made just to cover his modesty



Well I have this figure so I thought I would give him a new head and a kitbash, so here's my Green Beret forward Ops Specialist Rick Bagley

Cheers Gary I've been after a nice horse for ages But only see the Barbie ones usually, I know Hawkeye was mainly on foot in the wilderness but he does look cool as on his mighty steed 'Thunderbolt'

Cheers Daz yes the treasure is hard to find nowadays as everyone seems to be on the lookout but when you pick something up like this it gives you a big buzz

That was a super find!

Normally the e-bay dealer/sellers that raid boot sales would have hoovered things like that up sharpish. Wow! you came away with £183.50 Boot sales are the way to go if you don't get much pocket money, like me. Bank holiday booties are the best, that's when the field will be packed with sellers.. i found boxed MAM and carded sets last Bank holiday, plus tons tons more, and all at a steal! 

Latest boot sale prices have been fantastic and it's not even summer yet!

Fantastic pick ups Iain!, well done mate

Yes Clive mate I couldn't believe that everyone had overlooked the horse as it was quite late before the missus would let me go for a wander with my pocket money lucky you got some bargains too, at least they make there way to someone who appreciates;) them

Cheers Dal you can't beat getting something good in amongst a load of junk at a booty

it's dangerous out here in the wilderness your at risk of attacks from mountain lions



From out of it's cave the ferocious beast appeared and stalked Hawkeye and Thunderbolt



Then it made it's attack charging at the flanks of Thunderbolt 'Roar'



Then another attack made at the horses flank



Hawkeye jumps off his stead and sends a pistol full of hot lead after the ferocious beast and sent it scampering away with it's tail between it legs

great shots Iain!

great pics

Thanks to Dan and Dal the key ring is great

great stuff

The A.M.M.O keyring will bring back fond memories when we're in our mid 70's

I like your shrine with all the candles, nice colour
