Scar, have you been making it up to the toy show?

I have a few times! Actually a friend of mine started selling up there... He has tons of Fisher Price Little People. I told him he should sell up there months ago, and he finally got around to doing it... He loves it!

A bunch of new scores. 2 carded Madballs, although Wolf Breath has had some paint dust come off of it, but the seller refunded me some cash because of that, and another carded Applause Mario:

A really cool/rare colorforms "A-Maze-Ing Arcade" Donkey Kong game from 1982, a huge Colorforms Q bert pinball game (I had no idea it was so big, 14" high, 11 1/2" across, made in 1983) a rare promotional Q Bert Frisbee that I had bid on once before which went for $40 or so, I got this for a 3rd of that price, only the 2nd one I've ever seen, and a really rare Galoob "Zowie it Zooms" windup car, of which I have never seen loose, let alone carded. (made in 1982):

My Q Bert collection has gotten huge now, I can't even display it all together because of the amount of items.

Hit the Phoenix Toy Show this morning. This thing is taking off. Awesome to walk in and see a crowd. Nice work, Neil!

Today I picked up:

1) A vintage Rancor. Never had it. Good price.

2) Thing hands. Couldn't resist.

3) And ... a vintage MEGO WGSH Spiderman in pristine condition. No staining or ripping or anything. Looked like it came right out of the box.

NICE! Man, that Spidey brings back memories. Memories of almost burning my house down, but memories nonetheless.

Had an awesome day at the flea market.

Awesome, Rusty! Paint looks good on that Cylon. Did you get the GB firehouse, too? Sweet!

Yep, got the firehouse too, very cheap. It's missing some parts but it's still awesome. If you're interested in the Cylon I'd be willing to get rid of it, I don't collect Battle Star Galactica stuff.

Dan, gotta a link to the PHX toy show? I'd like to go to it one of these weeks.

It's actually a pretty awesome show! I don't think I've ever left there empty handed!

Nice pick-ups Rusty! That Firehouse is awesome!!

Thanks. Maybe I'll check it out this weekend.

Nice scores everyone!

Dan, as a SW guy myself, love that rancor! Given your love of all things vintage 3-3/4 I think you'll like these!

Scored this guy today. Along with that Lone Ranger ^

Nice set of LR figs. They look they are in great shape.

Been getting a lot of new toys lately.

The last vintage stuff I got was the Tom and Jerry figs from 1989.

Is 1989 vintage already....ugh!!!

Great stuff everyone, good to see this thread is still going strong! I just score a Q Bert pen that I've been looking for for 6 years, only seen one in a collection, never on Ebay, I'll post pics when I get it. My Qbert collection is huge now.
