    Yes, it's easy to replace cracked arms, but it's the great quality print on those Torso's, that made those old minifigs a good find.
    (Also loving the happy "whistle while you work" in the background!)

      Thanks Jez. Yes, I did have to sort through them but the print quality on both figs are very good.
      Unfortunately my Darth Vader heavy breathing and whistling (which I don't know I'm doing sometimes) were little off putting, especially if listening through headphones

      I was always getting a wind blowing noise on my videos when I did time lapse speed builds, and couldn't work out what it was, until I realised it was me doing soft whistling to my self too!!!! But sped up, it sounded like the wind outside!

    Great video of what goes on at these car boot fairs. I suspect car boot sellers know the price of Lego and subsequently put high prices on. Re your haul, i couldn't be bothered spending hours at car boot for so little gain, but it's good to try the experience.

    • @iainsbricks
      @iainsbricks  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks. Yes, it was a lot of effort for very little gain. Still, only 50p to get in and I did at least manage to get a few things.
