I did get about 20 loose figures last year over the summer so fingers crossed for more this year.

me and the mrs went on sunday and my dad even came along for fun, I got nothing! bloke selling some fake recards trying to sell them on as originals which I picked him up on. but I saw nothing else vintage star wars wise. only things that caught my eye was some old amazing spiderman comics and 12" six million dollar man dolls that were ropey and £25 each

there is a huge carboot not far from me in Denham, enormous!! but ive given up going, it takes about 4 hours to walk around the whole thing and the last few times I went anyone who had anything slightly vintage would say "oh Ive sold all the loose vintage figures I had to someone about 15 minutes ago" which just annoyed me so I don't bother anymore" plus your eyes start to go blurred after awhile. good if you want to buy a stolen high end bike from the pikies though :lol:

No vintage star wars at my local carboot this week,

it was a boiling hot day and there was a huge queue of cars trying to get in.

I got an 80s NatWest piggy bank pig in nappy for £1
whiplash on bluray for a £1
some jazz fusion records

I did see some bloke eating one of those awful rubbery bacon sarnies from the burger van and the fat slapped him in the face 'wha-toosh!'

I did notice quite a few stalls selling those lego mini figures and charging quite a bit and people were paying aswell

At a massive boot sale near me found I bit of vintage a rebel transport missing one gun and the rear hatch covered in dust and muck loft fresh and was going to buy it but had damage to the top half broken side where the hatch sits, could of toy polloi'ed it but did not bother due to the damage, school boy error though did not check the stowage compartment inside as sometimes secret goody's lie within too early for me, not firing on all cylinders at that time in the morning, probably could have got it for under a tenner :roll: found some corgi dragsters and 70's race cars for cheap in good condition so happy days

Some good pick ups here. I got a vintage hoth rebel soldier and a nikto, both fine, no weapons though. £4 for the 2. I also got a boxed remothe controlled inflatable darth vader, came out a few years ago, £2. Its nearly 3 ft tall, works fine, I didnt think it would. Anyway, happy hunting guys!

The one this week was large but not much to find: the 2 figures got them from a regular I buy from all the time 5.50 for the pair got the broken Jabba for 50p and the Yoda was a freebie due to finding in a box with a Micromachine Speeder bike but the woman said that wasn't forsale so gave me that as a way of saying sorry. had the regular pain in the ass dealers who everyone hates one guy claimed he found a X-wing, Tie Fighter and MF boxed for £5 each at the one in York on Saturday hmmm coincidence I beat him to a game console last week A lot of bull ****.

Was better this week, there is one on tomorrow as well so might give that a try today got the beaters for £5 the 2 boxed figures for £5 each the JP Dino for 2.50 and the other 2 for £5 for the pair not keeping them though one of them looks gross.

I was happy to pick up some vintage parts from a local dealer at my local boot sale for what I thought was a great fair price in the current climate , an arm and leg I was missing for a cap mini rig , a light grey battery cover, (with the two tabs present which is rare ) for my tie interceptor as I only had a dark grey dv tie one on it at present and half an ewok catapult for parts and a vintage boulder I was missing on my ewok village all for £7 if I get anything good tomorrow i'll post a pick of it all
