Toy commie cars at Poundland

[Jim Bell]

Went into £1 Land for some condoms and a hygenic nose hair clipper today.

Came out with these.

 

If anyone wants them, you can have them for the cost of postage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shout a PM if you want one, any.

I may take you up on the Ambulance, but I'm waiting to hear back from Poundland. I've contacted them to see if they can assist with obtaining the missing models from my collection. I don't hold out that much hope however; they all seem to share the same stock number so specific models won't be easily sourced. It probably won't be worth the effort for them, but we'll see.

Small selection in chavvy Watford today, not anywhere you'd expect but a freestanding basket thing right in the middle of the place, we need to thoroughly search these stores people, ideally in the manner of KGB agents.

[Jim Bell]

No probs. it's there if you'd like it fella.

[dugong]

GACK. Would you swap the Volga ambulance for one of these, shitemushy? I can't get the Volga ambulance anywhere. I'd like the other RAF van variant too.

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone wants those, they're £1 each plus postage, I can probably get two posted for £3 because they weigh nowt.

Staff at Poundland Maidstone must think I'm some odd ball, walking in every other day at lunchtime sticking my head in a bin full of toy cars and leaving empty handed. Today I made the march in the pouring rain only to be obstructed by a shop 'assistant' loading a neighbouring basket of crap from a large box laden trolley. After giving her 5 minutes, then apologising that I wanted to squeeze in for a look, she promptly moved the trolly approximately 1 inch to the left. Thanks.

 

The pile of Ruski models looked bigger than before, and was topped with at least 2 models I didn't have. A proper long rummage through the selection, whilst smashing my backside on a pile of boxes, revealed 5 models I was without but just 1 of each of these, bar the RAF van of which there were 3. Who's been at it then? Skoda_fan? I picked up the 5 and a spare RAF van for luck and 'cause they is mega cool.

 

The spoils of £1 shopping:

 

 

I contemplated asking if anymore resided in the store room, but figured it was difficult enough accessing the ones in store, so left it. Still waiting on a reply from their help line/email too.

[retrogeezer]

Have you managed to get some more Jon? I got you one of those silver 112's the other day.

Not a commie car, but found in the car dumping bargain bin. Couldn't resist at 50p

Spoke to staff at my local Poundland, they'd heard about em, but didn't get any at all, BUMHATS as I really want the green Lada.

I'll have the yellow Lada plod and the Transitski ambulace off you if you want mate

[eddyramrod]

For at least a week, Barrow Poundland has had none.  Nothing, zip, nada, zilch.  I'm hoping this heralds the arrival of a new batch from a different series.

[Felly Magic]

This was a 'holy thread bump' post mate

[eddyramrod]

Yes, I thought it might be.  I just took advantage to air the sad news from the far north.  It's a shame, I've been hoping to lay hands on a couple more green Ladas, but never mind, the next lot might be even more exciting.   Polonez, anyone?

[Mr Lobster]

.  I'm hoping this heralds the arrival of a new batch from a different series.

I wouldn't go getting your hopes up tbh.

 

Because I am a good and kind 'shiter I had a look in Burnley Poundland for you but alas there were none. There were however a fair selection of customers who could perhaps do with availing themselves of a few less £1 Haribo multipacks and a few more £1 bottles of shower gel.

[eddyramrod]

The thought was there and I appreciate it, thank you.  Sorry you had to endure the Great Unwashed!

[Felly Magic]

My commie shite arrived this morning, Many thanks dugong mate. The yellow Lada had a screw missing from the base, but you weren't to know, found a spare in my stash, so happy days.

[tooSavvy]

so then..... This is snaffled at the local Poondland.

 

 

.... and the Commies start a bit of bovva, over there, and here we are....

*other engine sountracks are available (on the 6o'clock news...  )

[lisbon_road]

There were some at Beaulieu Autojumble today.........

 

£1 each, ok for me...... silly but I really like these.

[MrDuke]

Moar thred rezzurekshunz yo!

 

The last dregs of these have finally made their way to the corners of the provinces.

 

All of these can be had for £1 + postage. They had several of the big-ass yellow bus thing, and a few of the grey vans and the silver Ladas too, if there's a mad rush of interest.

 

[eddyramrod]

OOh hello!  Any chance of two each of the yellow bus and the blue woody, please?

[Jim Bell]

I now have a full set, apart from the ambulance I gave to Dougongs.

[Mr Lobster]

I've just been offered a load of these by a wholesaler in France. As they want €4.95 each they'll be staying in France though.

I kept popping by my branch in the hope of one of the yellow bus things turning up and it never happened.

 

If you have a spare.... cash waiting etc.

 

Being it was your rank (Charlie Sheen etc) that inspired me to go on Amazon and buy a copy of The Wraith, I reckon you owe me a favour...

[eddyramrod]

 

 

Barrow Poundland has found some more stock, so this morning I picked up one of those green-striped security-type vans as shown above, one Volga ambulance and one orange Izh van.  All available at a quid each plus postage if anyone wants; or if you have the yellow bus we can do a swopsie.  The three I picked up today could probably go in one parcel if one person wanted them all; they're not heavy.

[RedSparrow]

Did the Polish ones of these ever surface anywhere?

[AlabamaShrimp]

Seen some of these for sale tonight at a car show. Some old git had them marked up at £8!

[willswitchengage]

Downsizing my fleet. Anyone fancy these?

[flat4alfa]

Holy thread resurrection Gaz 24 Cooper Stripey please

[catsinthewelder]

If that's a UAZ van I could be tempted if the postage isn't too dear.

Just saw these through the window of Chester Models
