    I think the luck comes with which area the OP shop is in. I love op shopping but don't have much luck either...

    In theory, if the OP shop is in a middle-upper class (or higher) area, you have more chance of finding what you want (dumb parents throwing out unwanted toys or giving them away because they can afford new ones)... whereas if the OP shop is in a working class area, then more than likely to find only broken very used toys (same with clothes, I guess)

    I went to school in Penrith, live in Blacktown... guess that proves your theory!

    Maybe I should give the ones near work (Artarmon/Chatswood) a try?

    I tried some country shops while I was away but didn't find any TFs. I did find some McDonalds Robosapien happy meal toys though for 20 cents (including the dinosaur one that Iceburn got during one of the Melb meets last year)
