Flea Market Barbie!

It’s rare to find a vintage Barbie at a Flea Market, especially at a reasonable price.. I should say a cheap price! Yesterday arriving at the flea market, I thought my fun washed out because of the rain. Instead it was a day to find treasures! I think it was also because there was so few of us, that I did find this rare Barbie!

This Bubblecut Barbie usually goes between 70.00 to 150.00 on ebay, depending on her condition. I got her yesterday, in the drizzling rain, for ten dollars. Or I should say the lot she was in, was ten dollars. She was in a warn out Barbie case, with a few other dolls and a pile of outfits. After my Vintage Ponytail Barbie for twenty dollars, I thought I’d never find such a great buy again. But I was wrong, and my collection keeps growing!  

Yesterday rainy adventures also brought forth Legos, some cheap CDs/DVDS, and some cool action figures [which included vintage GoBots]!

I Have The Power!

For you Matty Collectors, there’s now an Unofficial Guide to collecting He-Man! My friend Rod who recently told me about this book, has not only donated one to Retro Con 2018, but he’ll be selling these at the Retro Con 2018! That’s perfect timing, for the guests we have lined up.. I not only speak of Melendy Britt, but also Larry Kenney, since this book also covers the Thundercat toys released by Matty Collectors!

Transforming Our World Through Art!

In 1995, I picked up my first boxed Shockwave.. I was a huge fan of the art, and was thrilled to have this boxed Decepticon as part of my collection! Back then though, I never thought I’d meet the original artist behind that art. I can say I have now, and it’s both an honor and a thrill, to spotlight this talented man and his product! 

Tony’s a huge fan of Huffer, so he had to be near the top too!
