Those are amazing finds for $8! Doesn't this place have internet access where they can see that those Corgi juniors are worth more than $4 lumped together in a bag? All the better for you I guess!

Let alone the Tomica Bugatti is worth (at least) twice the money you spent. And i won't start mentioning the Huskys.

My jaw just dropped and hit the floor. Several times.

If microbuss is jelly, than I must be butter, 'cuz I just melted at the sight of more than a couple of those cars (no idea what that means).

Great deal - and congratulations! :2thumbsup:

That Jeep looks a whole lot like my 1/1. I have its big brother, the 1:36 CJ-5 but that represents an AMC Jeep, not a Kaiser as mine is. What's with them not putting a front passenger seat in there? I know it was a 1/1 option, but I've never seen one without.

What amazes me is that every diecast I see at flea markets and thrift shops are in rough shape at best, while all those are near mint (minus a few easily lost parts). I've got to start checking the ones here more.

What amazing finds you have there - suspect all of us are :drool: and maybe just a little jealous - especially to know you found them at a thrift store. Well done, well done. :thumbup:

I have seen them before but what are the blue Eldorado and green Jeep? Just remembered the Eldorado is Husky.
