Flea market and garage sale finds

Post by ketelone » Mon Sep 02, 2013 7:47 am

Slowly but surely I am finding 21st and FOV items available. I collect 1/32 but I am also seeing 1/18. Much of the 1/18 is still in the box. (I'm talking about 1/18 figures, vehicles, planes and even the diorama sets.) Recently I noticed the action grade M-1 Abrams. This was the last FOV Abrams offered at stores such as Target with the desert camo with black markings. I've also seen New Ray jeeps, 21st M-10s (mobile howitzer), 88s, Stuarts, Kubelwagons, Schwimmwagons, etc. The prices are right. Most of the time all of the accessories aren't there but I have so many antennas, gas cans, duffle bags, etc., it really doesn't matter. I assume the people that are selling them have kids who have grown and left the nest so they're merely cleaning house. The extra vehicles are great for spare parts, damaged burned out vehicles, background pieces or customizations.
I only wish I could find more of the seated and vehicle riding figures....
