I found this yesterday at a local thrift store. I asked if I could look to see if the cars were in the box and was told yes...
The four cars that were supposed to be there were present, plus two more...
And of course, Tyco track...

But this is the one that made it worthwhile for me.
I know the next car is common as dirt. But until now, I didn't have one!

And the price? $14.89 :thumbsup:

DEFINITELY a score! Congrats on the great deal noddaz! I think my old Tyco track was exactly like that. Great track and great times with my best friend from back then.

Gives me hope everytime the wife drags me into one of those stores. Thanks. Great find, just the cars alone.

Wow! A Tyco A-Team van from out of the blue.
And my birthday, which just happens to be the same day as Mr. T's birthday, is less than a month away.
Coincidence? Perrrrrhaps ...
(But Ah pity da fool who thinks so.)

i remember when those Amracs/Rokars were in Toys R Us... sweet.
i hit thrift stores around here all the time, but it's been a while since i found anything other than battery-op 1/43...

The same store had 2 or 3 sets of 1/43... Those I left behind.
It also had a clear plastic bag that had Tyco track in it.
I rolled the bag around in my hands looking for the cars.
I found the hole in the bag where I guess someone removed the cars... :freak:
I left the bag of track there...

"local thrift store".."same store"..notice how he hides the source gang. Just like a fisherman hiding his honey hole.:) Can't blame him one bit, nice find
