Value Village: what are your Transformers findings?
 

so i was doing my weekly TF parts search at my local value village and I cam across a really cool find, the Canadian/European exclusive figure Stalker. Stalker was later repainted in the machine Wars series as soundwave now, he's not mint or anything but still it's a really cool find for $1.99 in my opinion :)

i have found many g1 figures at the value village, usually in really bad condition but, still... best one I ever found was a mint, with weapon Blaster for $5.99, found many a seeker too missing wings etc and even some micromasters and a mint beachcomber.

needless to say, i love value village ^_^

I have never found anything at Value Village (except creepy people and a funny smell). I may have to try again though.

The Calgary NE one is dismal... racks and racks of previous "enjoyed" "personal garments" :rolleyes: Oh well... I did savage a couple of old Sega Genesis controllers a while back.

You really need to be there more often because there are some people hovering around constantly to fish for collectibles, vintage cameras, etc. I know someone who once scored a few old rangefinders and sold them for a considerable amount :eek:

-G1 Slag (was in ok condition with a loose jaw) for $3
-Neo Geo Cart System with no controllers for $20
-Chrono Trigger for SNES for $30
-Full Devistator except scavanger had a broken bucket and hook had a missing foot for $10
- Alternator Meister for $10

I have never found anything for me, but my son found a bunch of origonal joe figures in really good condition.

Even had a v1 storm shadow in the bunch.

Yeah, same here. I don't even think the VV near me even sells any toys, I went in that one time only...

Re: A cool Value Village find ! ^_^
 

Value Village is the worlds greatest toy store! I've posted up most my finds over the past year on the boards here. I've found lots of G1 Transformers, Beast Wars, Vintage GiJoe and Star Wars, Beast Wars series on VHS etc..... I stop by at least once a week to the two I pass on the way to my work, plus one thrift shop which I found my Beast Wars Megatron at for $1.49. My latest VV find was I Beast Wars Depth Charge for &5.99.
