That mini mogwai rules!! The red figure is a M.U.S.C.L.E..

That's muscle guy 213.

^^ sweet, thanks for the info

Never heard of this toy-line before but i think it's pretty cool . . . . the woman seller was so pleased to get rid of it for 50p . . .. i could tell she hated the thing.

If only i could find a Kai Thunder by Jet Turre as easy

This is really ugly

This week-end is the biggest flea market in Europe (in Lille). 100 kilometers long, 10 000 people selling.
For treasure hunters.

oooooh, biggest flea market in Europe?

I'm jealous.

Yeah, it's great and a nightmare at the same time, there are so many people, it can take 45 min to walk less than 50 yards in some narrow streets.
It's called the "Braderie de Lille".

You still have time to come over

It was a cartoon in the mid 90s in the US. Same old story: teenagers, crazyradioactive chemical or some other nonsense and BOOM, now theyre sharks! ...Inthe streets lol

I think i have a shamu somewhere who wad like a friend they would sometimes team up with a la Casey Jomes/TMNT

Edit: just looked it up, the shamus name was "Moby Lick"

More boot-sale goodies . . . . actually, the Asterix & Obelix plushies were from a charity shop (i dont usually buy plush toys but i make exceptions).

ET's . . . 20p for both
Asterix & Obelix . . . 50p for both

Looks like ET's having a good beer

Those plushes are great. And 50p is a real bargain.

haha . . . beer swigging E.T and cross-dressing E.T think they're too cool for school.

The plushies are complete too . . . I bought a much larger plush of Asterix a while ago but he's missing his sword and gourd.

What the hell is up with those E.T's, haha. They remind me of a bunch of drawings that came up lately ...

i pity the fool!

I totally had a few of these as a kid. Thanks for the blast from the past!
And the ET figures rock.

I can hear the music now.

found earlier, see earlier post in this thread


I found this bank a few years ago. Paid $3.95



This was found at a sale right near work for a dollar.
I couldn't believe my eyes.
I was glad the profits could go to a homeless shelter though and would have gladly paid more.


I don't get to garage sales as much as I used to, but
you'll never know what you may find.

Sweet deal on Naked Lunch!

^^ all three, great scores!

Finally found the 'NOT' man Flexi-Face . . . 10p


Flexi Face by The Moog Image Dump, on Flickr

And these two for 50p each . . . i've seen these online and always assumed they were He-Man style bootlegs.
Is that correct or are they from some toy-line? Does anyone know?


Wrestle Monsters by The Moog Image Dump, on Flickr

i believe they're called muscle warriors.

...pretty rare to get garage sales in Australia these days, BUT markets still all the rage..

My days pick-up at Rozelle Markets in ConvictTown ($15 for the 4 x comic TPBs + $10 for the 1982 'Humphrey B Bear' light - and yes it works, and it's made of soft plastic/vinyl):

not in a garage sale, but in a flea market

like $3 dlls for both aqua teen seasons and $2 dlls Murakami plush

^^ Nice.


Thanks for the info gutterutter, i did a bit of digging and that is exactly what they're called.
4 different sculpts by the looks of it . . . the other two are a tiger head and dragon head.
