love this thread and seeing what others have found and since i have some free time i thought i would post a pic of the things i have found at car boot sales over the last few weeks.
I have collected garfields from a young age but i hardly find them now and when i do its always ones i already have, this site got me feeling nostalgic so now i look out for all sorts!

How many different Garfields are there Emlou? (I don't know much about them really.)

I had a little luck this morning. :) I found a Christmas Mouse puffalump and some fun Lisa Frank stencils. ^^

Had  a horrible day at the flea market almost no toys mostly fast food toys and lots of todler toys. The only good find was a keyper I got for 25 cents. The keyper is baby little league and no accessories just the toy. If any one here wants the keyper PM me.

 I also found a legend of Zelda horse . I found Gandorf 's horse but not him and it is the 2009 version. It was lose and only worth about 10 dollars if it was mint on card It would be worth 100 dollars.

Other than that some one had two nude strawberry short cake dolls not clothes pets ect wanted 2 dollars each for them who are they kidding. A few barbies all lose no clothes , a whole bag of them 12 dollars to much for a bunch of nude dolls. I should have taken a picture for you guys oh well.

went to the salvo the other day and saw two popple plush but passed them up i do not collect them.  The toy section is dismal there, other than that i went to a curch sale and fund five vintage fisher price circus animals for 75 cents.  ;D i also found a digimon figure missing a foot and an arm for $1.00 and it also had a yu gi oh dragon toy and a wolf that turned out to be a modern GI Joe toy. if anyone is interested i am selling the vintage fisher price pm me or email with your offer.

I think the hollow my little ponies are made as cake toppers or as lolly bag (loot bag) fillers and they are licensed (so not fakies - just cheap official merchandise!)

So this is my loot for Oct 6th o_O haha. It's .. quite a lot. I estimate 60-70 plushies in all. Some of them are very small though. I also have a few other toys that aren't pictures, a small pikachu, a polly pocket (missing pieces though) and a few other ones.



Clearly I have a problem...
Sorry for the bad quality, this was taken with my phone!

Nice find I had a friend of mine find these two for me today Stridor , and Night Stalker both from the MOTU line. I also found out that our local salvation army was undergoing renovations and is accepting toys again ! ;D  I will have to stop in some time and see what is there. I will post pics of the horses latter.



Here are some photos Night stalker is in great shape , but stridor is missing the gun on his right side and the helmet that came with him. Both are in great shape but need to be cleaned.

We had the Disney train set when I was a kid as well, and I'd never heard of a Muppet Babies one. I went ahead and took a look on ebay, and sure enough: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1989-Vintage-Muppet-Babies-Imagination-Park-Play-Set-Train-Complete-RARE-/140710731253?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20c3035df5

Hi it has been a while since I was here last but the thrift store season has stared up again. I did not really find anything today. Mostly fast food toys but I did find two vintage pound puppies by Tonka toys if any one want them PM me. I will post a photo later.   I passed up on a carrying case for the shortcake dolls it was only 69 cents but I passed up on it I thought no one would want it.
