A trip this week to a nearby Barnsley emporium was fun.
Amidst the thousands of send hand treasures on two huge floors I spotted a few for the blog.
This array of die-casts caught my eye.
The Zygons were very appealing at £10 each but I resisted, what with Santa on my case and all.
So too the Lunar war Chariot, just £6. Note the Joe 90 Car exhausts! And is that a SHADO2 missile?
Some old plastic as well, Manta Force and Batman, nicely boxed and encased in plastic boxes. I imagine these are high grade items for such care and attention.
Lethal Enforcer isn't a game I know. the protected Spawn action figure was £75, again, a high grade item.
The Toy Biz Joker Cycle took me right back to 1990 when I first started getting excited about toys again. It was the merchandise tsunami following Tim Burton's Batman in 1989 that did it. I recall standing in front of an aisle of discounted Toy Biz Batman toys at Pontefract's Poundstretcher, including a big stack of these Joker Cycles, and I was hooked.
I came away with these two cute Sixties Skiiers, who were going for a song in the bargain bin outside.
Anything you like here?
So nice to see affordably priced and in decent shape Dinky's! I would have snapped up the Zygons, the Trident Starfighter and the Lunar War Chariot as mine lacks the missile and the rear set of wheels. The Mobile would have gone home with me as well as mine lacks the tracks and a missile and is cheaply priced.
ReplyDeleteWOW - never heard of the Zygons! Found this cool site with a lot of info about them: https://dinkytvspace.com/363-zygon-patroller/
