Found this tonight at my local used book store.



Feel free to post any good thrift store finds. Could be toys, books, furniture, ect. If it's used, it's good.

please share how yellow jacket and wasp defeat Godzilla.



the cover art is the jump off too.

They fly into Godzillas ear canal and flap their wings to irritate his ears causing him to have vertigo. He loses his balance and falls straight on his back.


I kinda felt bad for Godzilla. That's a pretty emberrasing way to be defeated.

oh well. still an awesome find though.

Found these today for $.50 each.

Psht, that's how they defeat EVERYONE! If you're small and have wings your only real tactic is "fly into ears" which I can't imagine being pleasant in itself either.

I need to check out a used book store ... cool finds ..

the only problem is when your foe has no ears, then you have to fly into another hole and flap your wings I think prostate spasm is a worse form of defeat than vertigo

My wife found 25 M.U.S.C.L.E.S. at Goodwill for .99c !!

(Millions of Unusual Small Creatures Lurking Everywhere)

((original PINK))

Nice! That's a great find!

slightly off topic but I was at the comic shop yesterday and some company has done a line of marvel minis like the muscles the sculpts were nice and they had a good range of colors

Are they Minimates? The Marvel Zombies Minimates are super awesome.

no they are solid one piece, no paint, and I am guessing about a medium on the vinyl softness scale, though I did snag a marked down pack of ghostbusters minimates, and yes the zombie minimates rule

the toxic crusaders comics always escape me. i've been (halfass) looking for them for quite some time. i have the marvel toxic avenger run of 11 issues, but none of the t.c.'s...great find on all of those...

These guys are sitting at the flea market by my work for $30 each.

thats insane!!

they're not still sitting there are they...?

Yes they are, I'm hoping I get tipped tonight so I can pick them up.

So did you get them?

Bought a pair of new Clarks Wallabees for $25 from goodwill...

damn... good score, i really need a new pair of low suedes

Man, that's cheap.

Do they have George Cox as well? Hunting for a Lazy Dog..

Love Clark's but would fear the wrath of alien athletes-foot. On a similar note, I've recently found that Tea Tree oil fends off the foot quite well.

Goodwill/Salvation Army used to be my fav place to find good records. The ones here in BK were not so great on toys.

Here in NYC there are laws that hold thrift stores liable for toys that might have been recalled or damaged and such. The end result is if you bring in something that is perfectly good, but loose and not in box it get's tossed in the trash. At least that's how it was explained to me. And unless you have someone who knows what vintage stuff is versus something else, they might just toss stuff out because toys get donated all the time; they see it as disposable already. Maybe dumpster diving the garbage bags outside of Housing Works Thrift Stores (which don't accept toys but get them all the time) might be worth it for the ambitious.

NYC is not the place for that stuff. But you should check flea markets and antique stores. They actually always have a better selection than one would expect. I scored a vintage Mego removable cowl Batman 2 years ago from an upstate seller selling locally for the holidays for $30. And down the block someone moved out and right in the middle of a drawer? Vintage Mego Captain Kirk!

There are also local yard sales and even comic sales in deeper parts of NYC (Bay Ridge, Canarsie and such) where you might trip across stuff as well.

And here's another tip for Downtown Brooklyn folks: There used to be tons of toy and novelty distributors around here. I know for a fact a few were still in operation in DUMBO even during gentrification but pretty certain their gone now. So every now and then you can walk by a stoop sale and if it's an older person—or someone clearing out their basement—you'll find some cool stuff. No as much nowadays as 10 years ago, but there was some lady near me whose husband must have sold lots of novelty toys because she always had an odd assortment of old lady stuff and then kids dime store stuff from the 1970s.

Found this a bit ago at a D.A.V. for $7.
