Those are nice goodies especially the mustang. I found a weekly toy show around here I will check out next saturday. Also had an ice covered road experience but I was able to crawl up at about 5mph.

How far do I have to travel from Alabama to get to some of these good shows? Everything I see at our shows are stuff from HONG KONG GEORGIA or TAIWAN MISSISSIPPI.

Hey Tumbleweed,
We have collecting for near 16 years now you used to be able to find shows in Toyshop (now extinct) Magazine.
Perhaps a Google search? Word of Mouth etc.
Most of our shows are North of us mid Ohio Chicago etc & some of us go to Wheeling West virginia in June for the Marx Convention all Marx Toy Show. Lots Of Johnny Stuff there. It is always a Great Time for one & all.
Dave & Donna

I feel your pain Tumbleweed! I go to several (12-24) toy shows in the Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri area every year but the majority of the items available are farm and nascar items. Marx is an exciting find. I bought three TBolts and two Comanches a couple monthes back not because I needed them but because I was so excited to find them.

I know what you mean BP. I'd probably buy a left arm with two chewed off fingers if I ran across it. I've considered taking some of my wounded warriors that I've put back together to a close show just to see if I can flush out some old collectors.

Thanks Dave n Donna. Wheeling West Va. sounds very interesting. I would be a kid in a candy store. My wife would say that I could have a quarter's worth. :-(
