Hi all,
Got to the car boot sale really early this morning, just when I thought I'd done well picking this lot up for the grand total of £2.00,

A stall holder who know's me well & the fact that I collect :AFLogo:, said he'd got some :AFLogo: bits in the car & asked would I be interested? £10 later I was coming home with this little lot :-D ,

Today must be my lucky day as I found the missing bits for the Lance in what few spares I've got left in the shed, even the remote control!
5p for a taty Scrap Iron, found in a 10p box, but the seller didn't what to change a £2 coin..the 5p coin was the only other coinage I had on me..(which I'd picked up in grass on the way in! :-D )

20p Biker Scout, :shock: the guy had boxes full of newer Star Wars figures & space ships & was selling cheap "'cause the kids don't play with 'em any more & I don't want boxes in the garage"

Also got this Dalek (50p) & Cyberman (20p) off the same stall.

I haven't a clue about the cammo nets, I found them in a be box of Corps & knock off figures, they look nice & will help with my command tent..+ they were free, as the lady said "Oh just take 'em"

Thanks for letting me show off my finds, did anyone else have a lucky day car boot wise?

Hi & thanks Paul, the boot sale's held @ a small local park called "Itter Park", it's held on last Sunday of the every month..a bonus is the fact is it's free to get in :-D
Gates open @ 10am offically, but most stall holders set up around 9.30 a.m. It depends upon the weather how many stalls are there, but its a nice public park with a play area for kids & nice general atmos'..in the football season the local kids footy clubs play at the same time as the as sales are going on.

If your in the area check out the Boot sale @ "the POSH", our local football team, every Sunday (except match days), 20p entry,not such a nice atmos'..but well worth a 1/2 hours look see.

Ironblood,I dont know anything about the thing behind Bummblebee..Hoping someone here can help..just about to start another post about it. :-? :?:
