Ok 6 months later I found a new childhood lot :D It is not as easy as it was years ago.

I bought this little lot from a nice old man, he sold his son star wars toy, since he had not been playing with it since the 80s :lol: It was a very little lot and the weapons was missing. It surprised me the weapons and cloth was missing since the figures looks nearly new. But there was something cool in the lot, a PBP Luke Bespin with caramel boots :D

Lots of cool goodies, glad you are still able to find stuff, even if it is getting a bit harder

Yes I must say it is getting harder, there is more and more of this guys who only buy for a profit and more collectors, so the childhood lots is going
very fast in my country when they are coming up for sale. A few years ago they could be for sale for days or weeks. Now 5 or 10 min after they are put up for sale then they are sold :shock: Unless the price is crazy.

Thanks for the kind words :D

Today I got another little loft find. Here is the story.

A saw a huge childhood lot for sale here in denmark, there was some really cool items in that lot, many vehicles, many figures and an old vintage school bag. I told seller that I would like to buy his childhood lot, but he told me it was sold a few min. ago so I was to late :(
I would have loved to have had that old school bag. I asked him if he had more or if he had sold all of it. He told he had found a little bit more, I bought what he had, minus a few beater figures. I did not get much, but I think I got some cool items :D

I got a cut front of a tri-logo box x-wing fighter. It is better than nothing, but what kid would cut in a box :? I would have loved to have had that box in the my collection.

Then I got 2 instructions for a speeder bike and a CAP-2.

I also got his pencil case, first I thought that one was vintage, but it was from 1997 :roll:

The best part of the little lot was this german toy catalog from 1984 from Parker, I think it is cool. I took a picture from the front and the back, I have never seen this catalog before 8) It have seen better days, but it is cool :D

Hi Mark thanks for the very kind words :D I think I will keep it, until I find a box that I can pay for, I will try to remember that you want it, so I can help you in the future :wink:

Today I got another childhood lot with the mail. I talked with a very nice french guy who told me he had found his childhood lot from the 80s and wanted to sell them, so I bought them from him. He also told me he did not play a lot with them, he more collected them in the 80s. Maybe why all of them minus R2-D2 looks like new and a few weapons is missing.

Today I got my last loft find for 2017 :D I made some fast pictures of the items so I have not cleaned them yet, sorry about that :oops: I got them with a lot of other action figures that I do not know much about :? but I have only taken pictures of the star wars items.

One of the cool items I can spot at the moment in the lot is a brown hair farmer luke :D

I got a loft find today with the mail. It is my first loft find in 2018, I will take some pictures of it in a few hours when I get home from work and add them in this thread :wink: So far I can say it is only figures, most of them is complete with weapons and most of them looks very nice or mint :D

There can't be many lofts in Denmark left to raid, can there, Lars?! :lol: Good hunting. There's nothing quite like finding stuff in the wild. It's getting harder and harder to come across genuine childhood collections these days.
