I am a treasure hunter, thats what brought me here because I bought a large collection of Transformers a couple months ago.

Well, Friday, I did it again. I bought a large toy car collection for $350 (basically paid $11 an item). Among the items were these three great toys:

What amazing condition, you are right youv'e found blackbeards treasure.

Now that what I call a brilliant find. I mostly just buy Tf's but I do enjoy looking at other things and those are great.

My biggest problem, I love all toys and cannot decide on what to collect. The fire truck will stay in my collection and will be one of my favorite pieces I own. That picture does not do it justice, it is a beautiful toy. Looks like it was painted yesterday. Unfortunately, I have to sale the other ones to make up the money I spent on the lot. I could not buy one piece, the lady wanted to sale as one lot.

The Ladder Truck was 99% complete and mint. it was missing one headlight, but I have already bought a replacement for $5.
