I just thought I'd let everyone know that I found the Longshot (although without the front gun) at a thrift store for $1.60.

I'm sorry for making you jealous.

Why be jealous? I found a manta for 5 with the original box and all stickers other than the two red eye ones. Thrift stores are amazing. I go whenever I get a chance.

I just got a Supermaxx 1.5k in perfect working order for free off a friend.

E-Penises aside, good find! IMHO Longshots aren't worth the $30 they are being sold for.

Well After around 100 garage sales / thrift stores I found:

Rototrack = 50 cents
Razorbeast = 2$ (10 chains)
and some cheap transformers

That might have made up for the gas spent driving to all those sales.

I just got a Wildfire for $1.

The problem is, it is utterly trashed.

[PC III]

I have never found anything at a thrift store.

[BendyStraw]

I only found the Tech Target at a thrift store. Yeah, the target, not the pistol.

I'll keep looking. Places like that get new donations all the time, especially if its in a well populated area.

My goodwill always has those... But they're always different ones. I'm tempted to buy them all and cover one wall in my room with them and turn them all on at once and just shoot the heck out of em.

[deaddumpster]

I have found:

2 SM3Ks (One Yellow the other Green)
1 SM750
1 Blue Mav
1 Tek Four
1 Hidden Shot
2 Electric Eels
1 SS II
1 Chainblazer
3 NFs
2 Tek Sixes
2 Airtech 1000s
2 SM1500s (one was destroyed except the tank and turret, so I integrated it into something I can't remember)
3 Crossfires
1 Hornet

These are all from the same Thrift store (Goodwill) in my town, it so happens they all sell for 25-50 cents and my grandmother works there. List shall be updated as I get more guns.

[Blacksunshine]

So far I've mostly only come across the Tech targets. But the other day I had the urge to stop by. And low and behold a powerclip was just sitting there looking all great condition like. And of course a price tag of 1.99 kept me from walking away empty handed.
