happens all the time after about 6 months after xmas.. esp. when it's obvious that the toy is too complicated for the child...

they may have just kept the inner robot.

Went to Value Village in waterdown today and found some neat items.

Found a bag of transformers for 4 bucks. some great parts in there plus the icecream truck twins...never bought it before but a what the hell. A Return of the Jedi story record still in its original shrink wrap, oh yeah, Ultimate spiderman from the first movie, super poseable....every knuckle joint is there....a pic of him holding Marvel Universe spidey for size comparison.







There was a Return of the Jedi figure on a really chewed up card...really chewed up..for $20. its that general dude from the briefing before the deathstar run. its in the display case.



and a blackstar (dark star) figure there too,.

So a StarWars record, eh?

Does it include the hit song "The Country Force", by Darth "Brooks" Vader?


(cool find!)

g1 sizzle for a toonie in a bag of crap, took him and redonated the rest

[sikkbones]

isn't that vintage reissue star wars card?

overpriced if it is.

[Matrix_Holder]

Its original not reissue. The figure is the one from 83.

The Value Village on Upper Wentworth would never price transformers so cheaply.

Not a VV find but a Frenchy's one. Armada Blurr and Smokescreen both ing pretty good shape, just missing their minicons and guns/missiles. Also a transmetal Terersor but he's missing his right leg and wings/swords.

Got that TF Chevrolet Aveo Swerve, of all things, at my local VV (Bristol and Hurontario) today. Kind of surreal seeing such a limited-release (and in such convoluted methods, too) Transformer in a baggie trapped alongside a couple of cheapo dollar-store cars.

Left a beaten up Rampage (no head, accessories, or the crab legs that attach to the robot mode arms), a wrecked Animated Supreme Class Optimus Prime, and a lonely RotF Supreme Scavenger (no other vehicles to form the Supreme Class Devastator). Nothing else of note.
