    back from the flea market with yet another decent haul :lolol 

    Unicron missing pretty much everything except one side waist flap:$2
    Energon demolisher missing missles and arm broken off:$2
    Target Exclusive Conquest X-30 Jet with Python Patrol Viper:$7
    Two GI Joe figures:i think the one with the vines is movie heavy duty and the other one is firefight or something like that (not sure with line):$0.50 a piece

    overall happy with this haul, expecially the jet (would be all giggidy over unicron if my little brother didn't have him already, at least i got one for myself lol)

    I once got a Leo Breaker repaint from my friends friend. It reminded it of your haul. It was missing two arms and was colored on. My lesson was see what it looks like before buying. I threw it away. Anyway, nice haul for a couple bucks.

    Same seller also had complete G1 Metroplex and complete G1 Ultra Magnus for £10 each (probably could've haggled him to £15 for the pair maybe) but I didn't have enough cash left on me. Thinking about it now I should've asked him to hold onto those for me and taken his phone number or something. Dealer from another stall was already sniffing around though so they've probably been snaffled up and had the prices bumped by now. Not a huge disaster as I've already got Magnus, Metroplex and Scorponok still complete from my childhood. Just had to spring for that additional Scorp because it was such a great deal I couldn't pass up.
    Who knows, same guy might be at next week's car boot sales with more goodies.

    Oddly enough, my Energon Demolisher's arm is broken in exactly the same way. I wonder if it's a weak area of the figure? Good haul! I rarely see anything at my local flea markets and when I do? They're vastly overpriced and the dealer thinks he's giving me a good deal (eg. $5-8 for a common Armada Minicon).
