Brewer Goodwill Finally Comes Through (Warhammer, Imaginext, TMNT Dogpound)

I don't know what it is, some Goodwills just suck. Well, for me at least, but then again I have very specific tastes. The Brewer location is one of them. Of all my years going there, I could probably count my purchases on one hand. Their tiny toy section is somehow always disappointing, today being the exception, sort of.
If you find action figures at the thrift store in Maine, nine times out of ten, it'll be Imaginext, but at least it's better than cars and trucks. So today I bought a big bag of Imaginext figures for a few bucks. They're not worth much, but combined with all the others I've picked up here and there, they make some pretty decent lots that bring in about $10 to $15. Even got some fairly rare figures in here, an alien and some pirates that alone triples the few bucks I spent on the bag.

But I probably would have passed on it had it not been for who was mixed in with the Imaginext figures, Dogpound from Nickelodeon's TMNT. Wasn't sure of it at the time but I was almost positive he was from the Turtles. I have a few of the figures from this series, I think I'm gonna have to watch it before I sell them off, just to make sure I don't fall in love with it and kick myself for selling all the figures I've picked up this summer. (I'm currently binging this show every night. I love it! I now need aaalllll the figures. And luckily it's only a couple years old so they pop up all over the place at yard sales and thrift stores. I'm having fun hunting them down and have a decent collection of them now.)

Aside from the Imaginext and TMNT figures was something you don't see that often, Warhammer figurines. I've never played any of the miniature games like that but have always found them interesting and love looking at them, wishing I had time to play. So I was pretty sure they were Warhammer, I just didn't know if they were worth more than the $2 price tag for the small box of them. I went for it and they paid off. They sold right away for $11, not much but at least they've gone to someone who wants them.
