    Saturdays Haul

    Fleamarket:



    After all the talk of fleamarketting and such. I decided to check the local action there. All action figures were a buck a piece.

    Goodwill:



    Quickly I returned to the Goodwill. (Buy by the pound.) Yep the laptop was part of the haul. Found a Mego Fonz wearing a small Best of the west vest. A Canon SLR 42mm lens Ghostbusters Ray. If anyone can ID the 2 figures right of the Snarf pencil holder. I'd be thankful.

    That military guy looks like he has the same body as my Rambo figures. Maybe it's Rambo's military buddy/superior officer? The African American figure I couldn't say but the logo on his shirt would probably be a clue. Can you get a close-up of it?

      The 2 larger figures are marked inside the thigh "1985 ANABASIS Investments N.V." They are 6.75 inches tall.
      I included the little figure in pic. I thought he was Perry White. But his copyright reads "1976 Fisher Price Toys"
      I think your right about the Rambo thing.

          I think looking at the logo that the african american guy is from the rambo animated series line, ad the guy in the millatary suite I belive is the villian from the same show, been a while since I saw them but thats what springs to mind when I see them

              I used to get cool stuff from the flea market, but mostly now they have the new knockoffs from Mexico. And the Goodwill here in Oakland rarely has cool stuff like that. You're lucky.

                  Thanks for the ID. Yunz guys is like a living toy almanac. The fleamarket stuff came from 2 vendors (Little old ladys). Of the hundred some vendors, only 2 had stuff of any interest. Most are selling knock off junk. Or trying to sell everything like it was a prices antique.
                  As for the Goodwill. I've found out the "sell by the pound" technique is also happening in states like NY also. The sorters are supposed to sepperate out more valuable items (ie: Laptops) But as the photo shows. They dont. As for the toy end of it. This selling method has really improved availability of items for customizing Megos. The Fonzie is the 2nd Mego I found this year. Consider that before this Mego sightings at PA thrift stores was Ubber rare.

                    The grey haired fisher price adventure person is part of the Television crew set. It came with a cool van, a tower and a large TV camera. It also included a female news reporter and a cameraman. I had this set as a kid and now my kids play with it at Grandma's house.
