Hi everyone.

I was off work yesterday, so i went out to a local boot sale. I was lucky enough to pick up these two items for £2.

Red Shadows Hyena and the Laser Exterminator. The Hyena is complete, but the Laser is missing a good few parts. Nice hey. I never had these before, so i was glad to pick them up.

Heres a pic.

Splendid! I've been wanting to find a second Hyena for a long time, but they always go for silly money.

SteveD is planning on custom moulding some repro parts for the Laser Exterminator.

Jammy sod! The Hyena is still on my wants list and to find one for £2 is probably one of the best bargains I have heard of on here. Good on ya!

Well it was £2 for the both, so the Hyena only cost me a quid.

There's nothing quite like a booty bargain!! And so late in the season too! What a superb find! Congratulations! I personally think joining BFTB is like a lucky charm. Good on you sir!

you won't beat that with a big stick, I was looking through a box at a model shop the other day, came across a very paintworn Copperhead and a good condition Alpine, no accessories. The girl had to phone somebody to ask how much, £2 each she came back with, I said £2 for both. Don't think she had the authority to accept so that was that.

If you can't upload a photo to BFTB then open a free photobucket account and upload your picture to that. Copy the direct link field attached to your image. When you create a new message on BFTB hit the button marked Img and paste the direct link from photobucket in between the img and the /img*

It works, and to prove it here's a picture of Natalie Portman looking hot in Episode II - Attack of the Lesbians...I mean Clones. Sorry.

* I must point out that this is not the ramblings of a mad man. When first posted there was no picture at the start of this thread. I was here to help and later everyone on BFTB posted me a Red Shadow figure to say thank you.

Natalie Portman......mmmm.
