2013 Urban Safari Hunting Hauls (Garage Sale, Thrift Stores, Craigs, Rummage...)

[megocrazy]

Chima Lego 70009 open but complete for $24 at goodwill
Big Harry Potter castle open but complete $14 & Laserpeg set for $5 at a different goodwill

Believe I got $80 for my last loose, no box, Hogwarts. It was close to complete. Good score.

The Basilisk is like what Jabba the Hutt used to be from the SW sets. I broke the $50 mark on that one twice, before the market fell back. Still get between $20 and $30 on a good day.

Just a heads up, Target dumped a bunch of clearance toys in Goodwill this week, I just found the Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Heroes 4 pack for $4.99.

Big Jeff doesn't have a beard, but Big Josh does. (I have those). Nice haul!

Went to the auction in NJ again. This time around was a let down. Not many quality toys but there was a dream box. It it were multiple AT GI Joe figures in really nice shape and a Land Adventurer in the box. A Big Jim Karate guy in the box, Marx and Gabriel Lone Ranger stuff (horses, wagon, etc.) including a lot in boxes. I think there was some AJ outfits on the card.

Everyone wanted this box and it came down to me and other guy. My limit was $300 but I went as high as $450. A guy won it for $475. The only way I could get it is if I went to $500. It was pretty stupid.

Nice lot! No the guy with the beard is not a Big Jim figure. That is a Super Joe figure.....commander I believe. The gold thing you have pictured there is also Super Joe and the black/yellow jumpsuit. The best piece you have there is that clam shell. That is from the GI Joe Jaws of Death set and it is pretty rare. I don't know what you gave for this lot but that 1 piece is probably worth more than you gave. The vulture is from the Fate of the Troubleshooter and a few other GI Joe sets. Also theres the troubleshooter solar panel and antenna. I see a few Johnny West cavalry pieces. The hard hat with lite is from the Lone Ranger Silver mine set I believe. The brown flat thing with ridges is the GI Joe Pygmy Gorilla boat seat. The white space helmet goes to Six Million Dollar Man. If you want to move that clamshell LMK.....I could give you a few "clams" for it....LOL.

Yep, I looked at the face and failed to check the body out.

Wow, you guys have been finding some good stuff lately.
Bahaha Michelob beer bottle flashlight. psych.

There were garage sales this last weekend, in the rain mist! (:O I'm surprised everybody didn't hide inside like ground hogs.

I stumbled across one of my most wanted sets I'm always peeking on ebay to find for cheap.
The McFarlane Where the Wild Things Are for $5 each! ($30 is waaay better than the $100 they usually go for nowadays..)

There's my most wanted Dungeons & Dragons Shambling Mound.
And a neat rare 50s/60s signal flashlight in really shiny chrome condition for $2, changes from red to clear.
A punching puppet for $2 that will soon be a MONSTER punching puppet as soon as I find the right monster head.
Everything else was .10 cents - $1 (and a free one-armed nutcracker for customizing).

love those old school mini football helmets. Not an easy find. Those are either 60s or 70s because of the red Buffalo helmet

[Mego MkIV]

Nice score on the Where The Wild Things Are figures.

[Red Hulk]

I was obsessed with those mini football helmets as a kid,I was always sticking quaters in the one at my Aunts pizza shop trying to get the Eagles.

Wicked! LJN's AD&D is awesome toy line.

Totally! I did too, but only had two of them (wanted more).
I wasn't into sports, instead removed the stickers and mouth guard and used them as space helmets for my Barbies in their sci-fi themed adventures.

Don't hate me!

Wicked! LJN's AD&D is awesome toy line.

Absosultely! It's awesome. I have so many more I want to get, I don't even have a Deadly Grell or Neo-Otyugh (had to look up the spelling on that one) yet!

Finally some GOOD news to report. After some pretty pityful weekends, I knock it out of the part this Saturday.

First, I got all this at an estate/clean out sale for $10. Not sure why I took the Joe as he is pretty beat. The She-Ra stuff was inside a generic carry case and in super condition. It's rare, at least in my experience to find She-Ra stuff with all or most the accessories.

The next score was a BIG one.

It was after 1:00PM and I was pretty much done for the day but I decided to follow some signs to a garage sale anyway. It stunk and the one across the street looked worse. So bad, I wasn't even going to bother. But I did anyway and I wasn't even going to bother to ask the lady if she had any old video game stuff, but I did anyway and she told me her husband did and that she would get him. I was expecting the usual junky system with a few crummy games, but WOW.

This is what I ended up with:

I was scared because before he brought it out he told me he didn't put it out because he was unsure how much he wanted for it. I thought it would be a fight. When he told me what he wanted for the SNES stuff, I had a very hard time containing myself.

Less than $150 for it all!
