Flea market haul

Ooops...it's been over a year since my last post.

I wanted to show you what I found at the flea market today.

Loco Roco for the PSP. I wanted it for so long =D Can't wait to play it.

I found not one but two aquarell color sets. I wanted some good aquarells for quite a long time...and now my boyfriend wanted to give me some for my birthday, but sadly the package (paper, colors, brushes....) seems to be lost :( So I was really happy to find some colors at the flea market for real cheap.

 Also a G1 My little Pony in excellent condition :3 It's Love Melody from the Twice as Fancy Ponies and she was released in 1986 by Hasbro.

Yay!

Flea market haul #23

It's been a long time! Today we went to a big flea market but ended up buying not too many things.

There were many vendors with video games, but they also know what their stuff is worth. I ended up buying X-Treme G 3 fpr the Playstation 2 because I love racing games and enjoyed the N64 version very much. I also picked up Sphinx for the Gamecube. Both games were 5€ each.

My boyfriend only bought Dragon Age II fpr 4€.

I found two G1 My little Ponys for 1€ each. Yay!

Some McDonalds Super Mario figures for 0,50€

And two Furryville sets by Mattel. I didn't know this toyline, but they were just too adorable to pass.
Look at this cute little skunk!

Thanks for looking!

My little Pony G1 - Good Weather and Skydancer

I've gotten many new wonderfull things but because of work and real life I have barely time for posting.

Actually, I don't know where to start... well I decided to start with something quite 'recent'.

Two G2 Ponys I found at two different flea markets. The one with the sun I found in october and the pegasus one in november. I'm always so happy to find some, no matter what the condition is (the nicer the better, of course!) since they've become so rare, at least where I live.

First, Good Weather, the Holiday Pony, released in 1991. I can remember it well from when I was little. It came with many neat accessories like a parasol, a radio, sunglasses, a towel, a bucket and shovel and so on.
 At first glance it looked great but the poor thing got chewed on (her front leg) :(
I don't mind it though and I'm glad to have her in my collection.

And now Skydancer. One of the earlier Ponies relased in 1983 before I was even born. As her hair suggests, she belongs to the rainbow Ponies. The poor thing was in a horrible condition... she had red sticky stuff in her mouth and all around her face, even her hair. Luckily it all came of with a lot of patience. She only has a few remains in her hair.

Thanks for looking :) I hope to find more time for posts on christmas.

Vintage Puppy and Kitty in my Pocket

I used to collect Puppy in my Pocket when I was a child and sadly sold them all off after growing up. After I haven't seen them in ages I found them at a flea market.... twice!

The first ones I picked out from a big box of random dog figures and the big haul I got from one young woman who seemed to have collected them in her childhood, too.

She also got a whole box of Kitty in my Pocket and it was actually the first time I saw them in person.

To be honest.... even though I'm more of a cat person I really prefer the puppies. ;)

July was filled with vistits to the flea market after I neglected it for quite a while. Mostly I've been videogame hunting to build up my collection, but I found a few other things, too.
Now I only need time for posting ;)

Flea Market haul #22

Finally a few free days from work! Finally time to go to the flea market again ;)

I was super lucky to find G1 Ponies in great shape for a great price!

                                                        Watercolor Sea Baby Pony - Sealight

Flea market find - My little Pony G1 and G3

Since I started my new work last year I don't have times for flea markets anymore. But good to have a mom who knows her Ponies ;)
Work was really stressful this week and on wednesday I was really down. Imagine the joy when my mom gave me these two she found at the flea market!

left: G1 - Twice as fancy Ponies - Sugarberry / Strawberry Fair
right: G3 - Pretty Pop

Flea market haul #21

This was already two weeks ago, but I'm so busy recently that I barely have for blogging or the like.

I was so lucky to find some G1 Ponies!!! I'm always kinda jealous at other people who find them at every other flea market

I also found these two Barbie dolls in their original outfits an uncut hair. I really love the Pocahontas :3
I actually wanted to stop buying dolls for a while but they where so cheap I just couldn't pass them!

I also got Diddy Kong Racing boxed ( strangely the us version) and the Harry Potter - Chamber of Secrets Game Boy Color game. I wanted it for a while because I saw a review online. It seems to be a nice little RPG :D

Flea market haul #20

On Wednesday I was lucky to find Kirby's Adventure for the NES. I also picked up Top Gun and Super Mario Bros 3 fromt he same person, even though I already own the later.

The cute My little Pony baby I got for free. :P The red Pony is a Magic Meadow Pony fakie. Normally I don't buy fakies, but this one looked interessting and was still in great shape. So I picked it up for 1€. Can't go wrong with that :P

Flea market haul #19

Yeah, another flea market haul =D

I tried to be strong, but I still bought a few things.

 The Neverending Story board game!!! Friends of my family owned this and we played it alot. The game as such is pretty basic, but the board and manual have nice illustrations. It's also written like a fantasy book. It's a blast to play when you are a kid and still have lots of imagination. The same guy also had the Chip & Dale NES game. First I only wanted to pick up the board game, because he asked quite much for the NES game, but then made me a deal and I couldn't resist :P
Then I stumpled upon a TMNT figure from the CG movie. Yay, I always wanted one of the newer figures and only 1€ Yay!
Then I found more TMNT figures! Panda guy and two of those than can transform into Turtles. Both are broken, but they still work well enough as normal figures and I finally have a Raphael =D

Leonardo looks so miserable. Haha!

Flea market haul #18

Oops...I'm late with posting again.

Friday I did some good buys regarding Barbie at the flea market. But I really failed with my other purchases. One seller (not a private one) had a whole Sailor Moon collection and I took a risk and bought all. Sadly I'm not so happy... it was really not worth the price I paid :(  I just want to sell everything ....

 4 Barbie-like Sailor Moon dolls. Also a whole set of smaller dolls by Irvin toys. Three figures and a whole set of small figures that where sold in Germany  when Sailor Moon was 'in'.

 Princess Serenty from Irvin toys. The head sculpt is really strange and flat o.o I don't get it. The dress looks really nice and look at her collar bone. She'd look so pretty with another face (lol?)

 Left Sailor Mars Bandai doll and right Sailor Jupiter from a Germany toy company called Igel (means hedgehog :P)

 Two japanese Artbooks and 4 german Manga (first edition)

There was also a nice looking figure of Nakoruru, a character from the SNK Videogame Samurai Shodown.

From the same seller I picked up two Barbies. Totaly/Ultra Hair Whitney. Sadly she doesn't have her earings and rings anymore, but she still has her long hair. I also picked up a Skipper who had still really, pretty hair. I still have to find out what Skipper she is.

The first two things I picked up where these two 80s Barbies. I got them for 5€. I think that's not that bad :)

Left is Diva from Barbie and the Rockers ( 1986 ) and she wears the Barbie Peaches-N' Cream dress ( 1984 ). I don't know yet the name of the Barbie on the right. She wears the Dream Glow dress and is really beautifull :)

Other than that I got three (!) new Ponies yesterday. G1 Swirly Whirly I bought from Ponydingens, g4 Twinkleshine I got as a present (!!!!!!!) from Mausezwerg and my mom brought me a new glitter blind bag Pony :P
Also got two re-ment sets this week and ordered another one. And also ordered two Pinky Street figures. Yikes. When will I stop????

Flea market haul #17

I forgot to post about my finds from Friday...well, I didn't really forgot, I just wasn't in the mood for postin :P

A Keypers horse, that has seen better days, but for 1€ noone would be able to leave it behind :P It's an original by Tonka, but a color and pose variant. Then a cool looking Spiderman figure for 50cent. A little playset with cute little baby figures and Barbie shoes for 1,50€ and last two smaller Nô-Masks for 5€ The Tengu one is carved out of wood and has a signature. Sadly I couldn't find anything out about it.

Sadly I left behind two My Scene Barbies with beautiful outfits. The lady asked 4€ for each of them. Normaly I don't pay more than 2€ for a Barbie...but now I regret a bit not having pocked up one of them.

Flea market haul #16

Since everything is still totaly shitty I kinda forgot to post my finds of yesterday!

Left a Petra doll. Petra dolls were a german fahsion doll toyline, cheaper than Barbie. This one is called Donna Sommerwind and has a original dress. The dress seems to be from 1978 and I guess the doll is from the same year.
On the right is an adorable Disney Snow White doll from Playmates. I first thought she was from the Animators Collection line but she is not. Still very cute. She was so cheap I had to take her with me.

I'm normally not a big Hello Kitty fan, but those were really cute. Love the flocked ones. I'm generally a big fan of mini figures, but they are barely sold anywhere I live and so expensive. Like those Lego Mini figures.... 2,50€, really ?
So happy to have a Trash pack guy. I kinda really like them :D

Flea market haul #15

Went to the flea market last week, too but didn't make a post because I just picked up a Harry Potter book.

Today I found way too much. Some day you find no Barbies at all and on days like today there are tons of it. I saw a Hulla Hair Barbie who still had nice hair, but 5€ was to much for me since I don't really collect.
Saw lots of My scene Barbies, too. I somehow really like them and started to like them even more after I saw some really awesome OOAKs and repaints of them online. Now I have three Westleys at home and none of the other girls. I wanted to pick up one of the others, but they have always some kind of damage (spots on the legs, sun damage, cut hair) so Westley is still alone.

Also DVDs still sealed for very cheap. Street Fighter Movie! Such a guilty pleasure of mine! I could have picked up so much more movies. Then I find this little vintage Strawberry Shortcake figure and picked up the little owl and bottle, too so that the guy could make a proper price.

 At the last seller I saw this little box and spotted a Goliath figure !!!!! Oh how I love Gargoyles :D I saw that there were a few TMNT figures in there, too and the lady said I can have the whole box for 5€ :P

Mutatin Rocksteady is really nice. I just really wonder who hat strange guy is who looks like Peter Pan on steroids. He has no mark on him. Hmmm...

- Star Wars - Han Solo. Kenner 1996. "Kenner Deluxe Han Solo"
- Jurassic Park, 1993, Human Action Figures series 1 : Robert Muldoon & Tim Murphy
- Jurassic Park The Lost World 1997 Jurassic Park Dino-snare dirt bike (without figure)
- Jurassic Park The Lost World Glider Pacl with Ian Malcolm
- Gargoyles - Stone Armor Goliath 1st series 1995 (without the stone armor :P Well at least I think it's him)
- The Mask - Jim Carey, yellow suit, head changes

Flea market haul #14

Today was the big flea market I kept ranting on the whole last month. The wheater was great and we went quite early before it got too crowded. I went all out on buying. Sadly only one G1 Pony and a handful of G3s. Not not single G4. Videogames were wuite rare too....wellt at least older ones. Only 4 SNES games and a few controllers. What I could have bought tons of were Barbies, Barbies, Barbies, but I picked up only 3 that I liked.

- A whole bunch of Nintendo plushies :) I only wanted to pick up the Yoshi, but they sold it so cheap that I took all of them and paid them a bit more than they wanted (I'm like that...) - SNES games : 'Donkey Kong Country' and 'Zombies ate my Neighbours' Two very good games I used to play when I was younegr at friends place. Glad to finally own them myself :) - 3 Barbies I haven't looked up yet - 4 G3 Ponies - G1 Baby Pony Snookums - Polly Pocket (incomplete) - Two Teenage Mutant NInja Turtles sets Polly Pocket style (only one has some figures...those thigns are awesome) - 3 TMNT figures : Casey Jones, Fugitoid and Usagi Yojimbo !! Byebye money!

Flea market haul #13

Normally I don't buy stuff this expensive, but I really, really like boxed NES and SNES games. Okay...I found Mega Man 2 glittering in the sun. I really hope the guy would sell it very cheap, but I wasn't so lucky. Well...it was an okay prize.

It's the Germany box in case you are wondering. The European box art doesn't look as....uh...strange as the US one. Mega Man himself looks a bit strange, but Dr. Wily looks really awesome! I also picked up a whole bag of Barbie stuff for very little money. At first I just searched for a few dresses and stuff and wanted to take a beheaded Phone Fun Courtney with me, but I ended up just taking everything. Sadly that stuff smells bad! BAD! I'm still working on cleaning everything. But when I'm finished I'll have a complete Hollywood Hair Ken a Phone Fun Courtney with her top and dress and many outfits. I also saw a guy with lots of Lil' Miss dolls, even the singing Mermaid one, but they were too expensive for my taste.

Flea market haul #12

Oops...what about no more flea markets?

Well, I got all this My little Pony G3 stuff from the same lady I bought the Polly Pocket stuff before. Everytime I walk by she talks to me and tells me what new stuff she has and I'm so bad at saying 'no'. It wasn't super cheap, but it was MLP and I rarely see MLP stuff at the flea market here. I really like the Boutique with the sewing machine, sadly its missing most of the other stuff that belonged to it :(

I'm starting to grow on the G3 Ponies a bit...can't wait to clean them and do their hair.

Flea market haul #11

I really hope that the next time I find less....or I should get more picky.

Well four new Polly Pocket sets from a lady I bought some off before. I really wish she had done a bit of research before. She had so, so, so many sets but put the figures totaly random. So I have four more incomplete sets. The pink ones have really bad yellowing and inside of the big box with the ribbon battery acid had run out. I can fix it but still...

Then I saw a G3 Pony and it was 50cents =D Yay~ my first G3 Pony and it's such a beautifull color. It's.... Velvet Bow from the Winter series (2006). The scraf belongs to her and she originally came with a fitting hat, but I don't mind at all. I also picked up the cute Nici sheep keychain from her everything-is-50cent-box.

I also started to look through boxes with Barbies to see if I find some that still have nice uncut hair. One guy had some nice ones and all where for 50cents. I picked up two that caught my eye.
One is a "Sleeping Beauty Barbie" from 1998. She has a lever on her back so you can open and close her eyes. Her head is out of hard plastic and has a nice shine. But ist cannot be moved. Well..I picked her up because she looked so unusual.
The other one, as I found out, is a California Girl Barbie from 2003. The head mold is the same they still use today I think. The body is the same as the "My Scene" Barbies and I really like them for some reason. They don't have a twist and turn feature (who need that anyway :p ) and instead have nice hips and a nice stomach with bellybottom, great for wearing a bikini or other beach wear. I also like that they can move their legs a bit sideways. Well...I picked her up because I really liked the darker skin and her brown hair with blonde streaks.

Wow...this year I already bought so many toys and it doesn't stop. o___o!!!

Flea market haul #10

I'll add pictures later.

Today I got:
- My little Pony bedsheat. For a baby blanket or something small like that. I didn't see any hasbro or other copyright though. 1€
-'Lil Miss Magic Jewels' (1992) without anything. She was wearing an Magic Nursery outfit. In the box was a magic nursery boy (?) an another Lil Miss with cut off hair and loose head :/
I still have to clean her some more and wash her hair. 2€
- Strawberry Shortcake Apricot (1980). Without the shoe/socks and without her bunny, but otherwise comeplete. She even has her ribbons :) She too needs some cleaning, but I was really surprised that she still smells like apricot! 0.50€
- My little Pony : Schlummerleins bed along with random useless crap. I asked how much. She said "How much are you willing to pay?". Me: "erm.....50cent??" She: ".....2€!" Me : "erm...you see I already have this bed. I just recognized it and well...what about 1€?" She: "1,50€" Me: "I really don't know...you see if it had some of the other stuff too like the little bear..." She "1,50€!" Me: "hmm....I think I'll pass :/" My mom: "Oh just buy it!"
I'm weak...

Well..pictures follow later!
Edit: Here is the Lil Miss Magic Jewels without her Jewels ^^; She was in bad shape, but I cleaned her up and did her hair. Yay~

Flea market haul #9

Well...not flea market, but thrift store/pawn shop/whatever you call them.

This all cost me me 70cent =D



3 VHS tapes and one book.
VHS tapes used to be sooo expensive and now most people wouldn't take them for free. But of course I had to grab the My little Pony one :P Inside is another episode than shown on the cover but I don't mind. Inside is the first part of "The End of Flutter Valley / Das Ende des Zauberflügeltals" part 1. I have no idea why, but I only owned the second part as child....so I never knew how the story began or ended ^^; At the end of the episode are some MLP commercials...I could watch them forever haha!
Next we have "The Aftermath" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083526/ ) 4 out of 10??? Seems like I grabbed a winner :p
And the last one is "Hokan der Barbar"( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087432/ ). At first I found nothing online about this movie because it rather goes by the name "Hakan der Barbar". I guess they wanted the title to be as close as possible to "Conan, the Barbarian" :p It sounds quite interessting. It was filmed in Iceland and is all about Vikings. Yay~
The book is.... a novelization of the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Movie. I wonder if its any good. I really love the movie (and I STILL don't have it on DVD ;__; ).

Well...tomorrow is flea market again *-*

Flea market haul #8

Today was soooo cold, but there were many, many vendors at the flea market. I only bought one thing that immediately caught my eye. I ended up buying it because the man was nice and I didn't find anything else to buy :p
So here it is : The playset for Cleo de Nile from the Monster High series by Mattel.

Sadly there is some stuff missing...one of the black cats...the box, the little sphinx and all the tiny stuff and jewelery. Well...it was very cheap and still displays nicely so I won't complain. The man also had two littlest petshop (vintage) cats and I asked if I can have them for free :p

I don't even have a Monster High doll...but I solved that problem for the moment. My 'My Scene' Westley likes the set, too ;)


Maybe I should make her an egyptian style dress ^^
