Tampa card show in December.

 I'm pretty sure I'll not be attending the Tampa show anytime in the near future. The last two visits to that Holiday Inn show got me sick. It is a really big show and this last time wasn't "crowded" and I was only there for less than 2 hours, but sure enough I got sick.

I will be heading to the Clearwater show tomorrow. Fingers crossed all goes well and I find some good stuff. With that being said I did find some good stuff at the Tampa show. I'll break it up into three posts. Starting with the surprise I got that I didn't know until i got home. (You'll see at the end of this post).



I paid $40.00 for everything you see in the box above.



Those are all Star Wars toys.  99 of them. This was the best deal of the day easily with just the toys them selves. When I went through this box I found that surprise I mentioned in the bottom of the box.




From the same dealer another box of stuff that I paid $20.00 for. the stuff above and below was in this box.



Not bad for all of that stuff for $20.00. Not as good as the 100 toys for $40.00 (plus the surprise). But, still not bad.



That is one heck of surprise to find after getting home. Really great condition too.

I am going to have to come up a different way to display all of the Star Wars stuff I have. Right now it is scattered an several places and that isn't a good thing.

  1. I still have all of my Star Wars figures from when I was a kid, maybe 3/4 of the original '77-'85 series.

    1. some of those 77's are worth $100-300 in mint condition. All of mine (I have a lot) are from 78-85. Kyle that shop owner in Ormond has been looking for the ewok for his personal collection. The original one that is 77'.

  2. Holy cow! That Star Wars collection is sick! Hope you show off some individual figures in a future post.

    1. That one box of toys were all tiki toys or something like that. I had never heard of them. Knew I didn't have them and they look cool, so basically a quarter a piece I snatched them up. Once I figure out how to properly display my Star Wars stuff I will do several posts to cover it.

  3. correction they are called attacktix from 2005. I really got a super deal, there is a lot of 48 of them of ebay for 330.00. $40.00 was a steal.

  4. Looks like a really great deal on those Star Wars figures. They looked a bit newer than the original toys I had as a kid... Mine were more mid 80s though as opposed to the original 70s...

  5. The coin is what made it all worthwhile in my opinion. Star Wars is not in my scope of likes. Some in my household are fans. Great find!
