One day while I was browsing craigslist, I stumbled upon an ad reading "12 lbs of Lego $40" 

Naturally, it peaked my interest, I mean 1 lb of Lego is like $30 on ebay. So I emailed the guy, and he gave me the address of a custom golf cart shop to pick it up at.

This is what I got

Not exactly 12 lbs, but still an impressive amount of Lego.

It took me about 4 days to fully sort through it, and it was really a great haul.

So here's an overview

I got a lot of Minifigs

Check out the original red coats. I also got some wild west, and a lot of Medieval warriors.

But the original spacemen really stole the show. Only one is complete with the helmet though :sceptic:

And here is a great find, and original lego plate. you might have to zoom in to see but you can tell from the stud lettering.

Anyways, this is my most recent find. C&C appreciated, as always. :classic:

Check your bricks bin, maybe you'll also find https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3317&idColor=3 to attach them to.

 

I've never seen the short red hoses. But I think the weird red piece to the right (above the round brick) is Lego, too. Think I saw that someplace.
No idea about the red part in the center.

I remember those hoses. the red ones.

they came with one of the i think Mtron kits n i think (straining memory here) the samsonite aka us/can ver had red & grey flexy hoses where i've only seen grey on bl & brickset. (this is obviously from memory with no proof yet)
