first off, i won the vintage tomy booklets for $11 from ebay. really happy to add these. havent had time to scan them yet, hopefully this weekend.
now, i recently acquired the flip face toby, minus his copper mine. by a stroke of luck, i found one on ebay. looks ok, though the seller says the conveyor sticks. should be an easy fix.
the same seller also had flip face talking HIRO! the trackmaster holy grail and the most detail engine of all time. he is missing his sodor steamworks sign, but will keep an eye out and hopefully..,
mum and dad went back up to tauranga last weekend and stopped in at vickys to pick up the trackmaster set she got for me. it is MASSIVE! so much stuff. mum also found arthur at crovens gate mine at 0-5, which comes with a flipping truck. a nice set to have another of.
toyworld on facebook was having a day of giveaways today, one of which was 10 s1 minis. all we had to do was answer a simple question, and guess who was one of 3 winners!!
