Oh I saw the red laser painted grey I think, and the guy you brought the croc master and cobra trooper from did he have a lot of old records for sale grey hair with glasses? if so that is my mate Jim.

red laser is soaking in some white spirit but the paint is v v stubborn and im not sure if the torso is superglued to the groin...
sorry - didnt explain myself so well about the cobra and croc, didnt get them but v nearly did as didnt realise at first they were remounted, but yes sounds like your mate.
a little earlier in the day I spotted what I thought was a moc minesweeper for 50 quid and nearly snapped it up till I realised the bubble had come away from the card... dont think I was the only one who did that as it was in a plastic protective bubble...

Yeah I saw the minesweeper to in front of a tbp, very nearly brought it just for the backpack lol, how ever I passed, I did pick up some ad&d figures from that stall
I must say though I was amazed with how much AF/ Gi Joe was there, I have been to every Memorbillia and never ever recall seeing that much there but maybe I have never really been actively looking for it, I have always been on the lookout for Marvel stuff mainly.

At knutsford services still making my way home!
Lewis decided that as soon as we got on the motorway he would throw up so we stopped at the first services and then the third and now I am at knutsford just over half way home I think it's been a long day it could be an even longer night.
See ya all when I get home or should that be if.
