Kindergarten Lala Dreams
I found lots of lovely little figures and playsets recently, included a couple of vintage 1990’s items (Play Kindergarten and Tiny Dreams).
Sesame Street
Street Fighting With Ernie
I found a smattering of plush toys when the charity shops opened up again last month, including three vintage Teletubbies, a super soft Snoopy, Sesame Street, Care Bears, Ice Age and Street Fighter. I also found a vintage Where’s Wally? board game.
Tickle My Stretchy Troll
Lots more toys for resale, plus a few for myself. Best finds include a large Monster High doll and a big bag of Moshi Monsters!
Postman Potter & The Angry Circus Birds
I found an interesting mix of vintage and modern toys during March. Some I’m keeping, some I’ll be selling and some are presents. My best finds are the Sesame Street windup radio, the vintage Fisher Price Circus Animals and the Harry Potter fob watch.
Ugly Bird Goals
Figure finds and a few other things from the end of February, including and excellent Powerpuff Girls bag and the missing Thelma figure from my Scooby Doo set.
Yoo Hoo, Sooty Pants
Plush finds from January included a well loved Bagpuss, Danger Mouse, Frizzys, FurReal, Ghostbusters, Hatchimals, Hop the Movie, Lilo & Stitch, Minions, Paws, Puppy Surprise, Sesame Street, Shnooks, Sooty, SpongeBob Square Pants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Tweenies and YooHoo.
Cuddling Vampire Chickens
Plush finds from December include Care Bears, Chicken Run, Cuddle Crew, Despicable Me, Five Nights at Freddy’s, Monsters Inc., Moshi Monsters, Pikmi Pops, Sesame Street, Vampirina, Wallace & Gromit and Winnie The Pooh.
Rupert In Blue Jeans
The last two weeks have been very plentiful as regards to buying toys. So much so I am now at maximum capacity and really hope my shop begins to succeed before I am crushed under a pile of dollys! I also struck on an excellent idea, and one which I hope will set my toy sales apart from others – FREE PIN BADGES, designed especially to go with certain sales!
Bouncing Buffy
This is what happens when your friends enable your toy collecting addiction by bringing you gifts!
Mr T’s Little Tickle
I came home with sack full of toys from last weeks charity shop expedition, plus had a few carboot finds too. In fact, there were so many little toys I couldn’t fit them all on the table to photograph together! I found a few dolls (including Novia Stars and Mr T), lots of fast food toys, several different figures (including Fabuland and Littlest Pet Shop) and a few plushies (including another Boohbah hot water bottle cover). I also found a well read six pack of Paddington Bear books and four My Little Pony (forgot to add them into the group shot)!
Some Kind of Boring Cabbage
Last weeks finds were most plentiful, covering the carboot on the Sunday, followed by various charity shops during the week, and seem to have found lots of things in twos! I’m most pleased with the vintage He-Man and Stormtrooper figures, an Ever After High doll for 20p and the fabulous “Boring Postcards” book!
Tickle Me Trooper
The Mr and I popped into Raleigh on Tuesday, and I found a Tickle Me Elmo, Lego Star Wars clock and Mort by Terry Pratchett. We needed milk on the way home, and the bus stop is right outside a charity shop. So we popped in and I found five little toys in the 10p box (including Piypon and Momiji). And after buying milk we happened to walk past another charity shop, where I found an original Furby and a Pinky Cooper doll!
On My Way With Farting Flufflings
I came back with an excellent selection of toys and books from the Lions charity shop last Saturday, including a full set of Sesame Street “On My Way” books, a Jack and Jill book from 1971, and various soft toys including a farting Grumples, a moaning Flufflings, a talking Hoobs, an accident prone Mr Men, a tiny Furby, and a baby Puppy Surprise!
