Yard sale finds — Mario, He-Man, and Supernaturals action figures

yard sale finds -- he-man, supernaturals, and Mario

There were plenty of yard sales this weekend, but I wasn’t able to hit them until after 11:00AM again, so the pickings were already pretty well picked by the time I got there. I found a few fun items, including an E.T. doll and a Prince Adam He-Man action figure.

The surprise of the day was that Supernaturals Lionheart hologram action figure. He may not be valuable, but I always get a kick out of finding 80’s action figures. I got him, the small Godzilla figure, and Mario figures, for a quarter each.Β It always surprises me to find items like this at yard sales. Usually, they are in the bottom of a box of junk, and these guys were no exceptions.

I hope the rest of you are having better luck than me. These Saturday soccer games are seriously cramping my style!

    You got a Spirit Iron-Knife, WITH his pants – that’s a good find!

    It was NOT a good weekend for me. Got a late start because fiancee was babysitting and I needed the car. All the sales sucked. Went to thrift stores, and the best stuff was in other people’s carts. I guess you can’t win ’em all…

      Ha! Thanks, now I don’t need to look him up. Those Sigma Six guys are strange to me. If he didn’t have his pants, he probably would have been left behind. πŸ˜‰

      My neighborhood’s sale is coming up soon, and something tells me the soccer game is going to be skipped that Saturday.

    Oh man I love the Super Naturals. We just came on a pretty cool lot of all of the ghosts carded. Those will be up for sale soon (as I prefer the other characters for my collection)

    We will be having the Hwy 11 yardsale here in 2 weeks. It is one of those “Worlds longest yardsale” type of things. I will be spending most of that weend there, and am hoping for some cool finds!

      Visiting the “world’s longest yard sale” is on my bucket list. Every year, I tell myself I will be going, but then I forget about it until it’s passed. Happy hunting Ashley!
