Any new classic toy aquisitions?

[toys2cool]

With the family away for two weeks, I took a trip to the Buffalo flea market circut, hoping I'd come home with something. It looked bleak for the first hour but lucky for me this guy was in a corner of a building:

The first "vintage" toy I bought was my neighbour's Mazinga at his yardsale, I still have him. It seemed fitting to get this one. The border guard obviously wasn't a collector "you drove all this way for that?"

I had the perfect spot for him or so i thought, he's too big.

how much was he?

I just got a talking Ernest doll in the box if that counts

Got this stuff in a trade from a new contact I met at a swap meet. Had gotten rid of alot of my transfomers because of a space issue and now am head first at trying to reaquire some of my childhood ones. Id say not bad for 8 three and three quarters joes that I dont even miss.

Nice Mazinga Brian. Did you get him at the Clarance fleamarket?

man, you guys gotta stop talking about these jumbos.
I have no space, no money, and no willpower

I know, I think I gave myself Jumbo fever again after posting the Bandai Museum thread. I'm getting myself ready to put other toys temporarily aside to finally complete my collection of the Mattel Jumbos at least. I still have my childhood Mazinga, but I want to pick up a boxed one, along with a couple others I still need. I'm already researching prices on ebay. Where the hell I'm going to display them all is another story. Time to rethink my toyroom setup.

Purchased off ebay "BIN" for 3.99 a complete boxed 6 million dollar man Mission control center

You know it, it sure wasn't superflea.

[cjefferys]

Yeah, I guess that was a dumb question.

Just scored a boxed J Jay Armes doll for a great price on ebay. Wanted one of these forever, although I can't justify it!!

Nice Mazinga B, that Bandai Museum post might have started something!

I recently finished my Mattel Shogun Warriors boxed set when I picked up a Goldorak box:



I haven't had a chance to get them all together for a family photo yet, will post when I do.

Here are some recent pick-ups from the 'bay and elsewhere...



Toltoys issue Colourforms



Toltoys issue Etch-A-Sketch





These little overlays came with the Sketch, pretty cool, don't recall seeing them before.

Below is my earliest (I think) item, an early 1940's Sunday Mail Superman Comics Club badge...



A cool pick-up from Chris (Vintage Spideyfan) here on the boards, a Topps Marvel Flyer Spidey...



Finally some recent additions to my vintage 12" Joe / Action Man family, two lots of bootlegs starting with "Armed Forces"



and last of all Action Buddy...



Cheers,
Will

It was my Pleasure Will. Just glad he made it to Oz!! Some real gems you have there. Love the Supes pinback.

Wow, very nice boxed Goldorak/Grendizer Will! That's the hardest to find Mattel Jumbo (especially complete), and a great one at that.

[AAAAA]

Loving that armed forces Outfits

I just scored a bunch of old 80's happy meal toy sets. As soon as I as they arrive I'll have to get pics..... Those things were gold to me and my sister back in the day.
