We see them in the uk now and then, if you look up kombattini the italians love them too. They go very cheap on ebay when they are actually listed.

'On Sale' or 'For Sale'. It's really the same thing! The word, 'Sale' means YOU CAN BUY IT,
not that it is discounted. We as consumers are conditioned to think"On Sale"means it's cheaper.

That's a really fun collection - don't know if I could ever find the time for taking individual snaps of every single one of my toys.

The "rubber monsters" section's my favourite, some lovely stuff there. Especially the whale!

Where are you from in the UK?? Judging by your photos of Basildon, Billericay and Laindon I assume you are somewhere very local to me, I live in Canvey...this also means you probably hit the same boot sales and go for the same stuff!! haha.

Great photos by the way. It has inspired me to Photograph my collection and create a Flickr account.

Damn! Looks like I am going to have to search further afield now then. :starwars:

Well this weekend I won't be going out much. So you should get some good finds lol.

Have you been to the westcliff toy shop? Not much in there, but I did pick up a ghostbusters ghost before.

If you want we can meet up for a tea after we done our searching. I'll message you in a few weeks time. When I go out hunting.

Wonderful dinosaurs, think I've got the first and last ones in different colours - where'd you find the Echidne? Surely not at a car boot?

I paid quite a lot for the Echidne, it was a purchase from a secondhand toyshop.
The owner was a bit optamistic on the prices of the kellogs monster in my pocket @ 99p each. I laughed when I first saw the prices, but then I saw the echidne!

I love mis-information when its positive. :biggrin2:

The dinosaurs I think are more or less new, but they managed to persuade me to take them home @ 10p each. :teehee:

As secondhand toy shops go, sounds like a good one. Any information/pictures of said shop on the interweb?

Next time I'm in Blackpool I intend on taking some pictures of a shop called WHO, which is possibly the best toyshop I've ever been in (at least in this country - nothing can compare to Florida's Toy Liquidators!).

£0.99 equates to $1.62 at the moment.

Looking forward to the day it goes up to $2 to the £1 (I can live in hope) :rolleyes:

I finally found out how to take images so i do not have to resize them all in ms paint.

Bit boring, but I discovered a few muscle that I didn't really know of.

Hopefully this will make it easier for me to trade with people.

Brilliant stuff, Space Creatures! Always looking for them, but never been able to get any since the original two I've had since back when they were first out. And even out of those two, I only know for certain where one of them is :confused:
