    Default Best Op shop/antique store tf find

    i went to an opshop today and found one of the playskool transformers called gorillabot, it was 50c so i got it. this is also how i picked up most of my G1 toys. i regularly search op shops and antique stores for transformers and was wondering what transformers everyone else has found

    I found Fort Max in a collectibles shop in Nambour, QLD for $40 about 11 days ago.

    Im not a huge OP shop kind of person, but years back I used to go into them with friends from high school, usually 2-3 different stores a week, and not once did I ever find a Transformer (or DBZ) toy...

    Not much has changed, on the rare occasion I visit an Op shop, I still have no luck.
