I went to the thrift store and scored a TMNT Sewer and a Worf Klingon figure. Came to 5.00 dollars and part of that was because I had to donate some money, because there wasn't anything else I wanted, and I used the card. In reality it came to $2.24.

Great find Michael! I have seen that sewer in stores a while ago. It could be made into something very cool! I can't wait to see these. I'll give you a call when I get off work today.

I have not had time to update this section for a while but have found plenty of goodies to report. First  I pulled up to a customers home over a month ago and found her cleaning out her attic. These goodies were what my eyes locked on before I even got out of the truck.















The Blackbird is cool but will go to custom fodder, Vintage Rancor box was empty, any one want it? The Robotech Space Fortress is the best part. Almost mint condition with poster and instructions. The bags of parts are still sealed! Sweet!


Got this stuff from salvation army...




these crates will become bunkers or background walls. Spent $3








Vintage Ewok Family Hut, spent $1 on it. It is incomplete but the elevator works and Jaxon plays with it ana all types of figures from differet lines and galactic heros.



The rest of these random items cost 15 cents each.











These were $1 and will be customized for Joes.

Sorry guys, I guess I have been away from this thread for too long. I have not had a lot of extra time to photograph all my treasures these days. I have bought many great things "on the cheap" and just uploaded the last few things I had photographed.

I think this is some sort of power rangers jank, only cost me $4. Does any one know what these things are?









Also picked up this gem for $2





Great custom fodder for $1





Thought this had potential...





15 cents each...





Some things I pick up decause they look cool or odd enough to catch my eye. I need to take a pic of my odity shelf...
