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.

Hi Chris, thanks for the kind words :D I am sure that there is not many left in denmark because I have not found any the last 4 months :( But i am not the only childhood hunter in denmark so maybe I am just to slow :lol: This one I did not find in denmark, so sometimes I have to search outside denmark for this childhood lots. but a childhood lot is a childhood lot :lol: There was also some other toy in the lot that was not star wars, but seller thought it was star wars :D Now I will use some time on the lot to look after if there is some variants between them that I do not have or if there is some things I can use to upgrade some of my other figures.

Tuesday I picked up this little danish childhood lot. The guy told me it was from his childhood in the 80s and now he was selling it, he was not a collector and he was very expensive so I only bought the cardbacks with danish price stickers and the figures that followed with the cardbacks from him. This are my first cardbacks with danish price stickers on them that I have found in 2018 :D

One extra cool and funny thing was that the logray cardback that have an italian sticker on the back of the cardback, looks like it had been in italy before it came to denmark and was sold :D

Tuesday I picked up this little childhood lot here in denmark. Seller told me it was from his childhood and that it has been on the loft since the good old 80s. He also had a lot of other star wars items but I choose only to buy this 2 boxes since it was the only items he had with danish price stickers on them for my danish focus :D

Still nice the saber is there, I also see many lots with no weapons from loft finds or with only a few weapons.

2018 has been a very silent year for me with picking up childhood lots :( The competition has become harder since more vintage toy dealers has begun to hunt childhood lots in denmark just to sell them again and earn money :( but for the first time in a long time I was faster :D Seller told me if I would not pick it up today then he had another buyer, I am sure the other buyer was one of this toy dealers. They are bidding the prices up to crazy prices and then they try to sell them to even more crazy prices :evil:

But here is the nice little lot I got, I was surprised to see most of the weapons was lost. Funny that a little blaster like a bespin blaster survived but many much bigger weapons was lost :shock:
