Well I just got back from the Saugus swap meet, which is supposed to be the "largest" swap meet in my general area, held every sunday at a racetrack in a very dismal part of SoCal. I was hoping to find some hidden gems, MUSCLES, Battle Beasts, Transformers, etc. Sorry to report that all I saw were some bootleg Spiderman toys from Mexico or Hong Kong, complete with "Spaderman" packaging, some chewed up original He-Man figures which were missing limbs, and some highly overpriced loose Star Wars figures (for example Boba Fett for $65) Sad, sad, sad.

I tried going to some of the flea markets around here and cant find anything decent.

Alas it is ebay or bust. Although ebay might just bust your wallet.

Actually i lived in dena a while, I'd suggest that and the PCC swap meet that happens every 1st or 2nd Sunday of the month! I found a bunch of old toys there including ShogunWarriors(the good kind)
