After work thrift store score!
I found another tote full of Chap Mei "Animal Planet" items for $4.99!
The sealife are complete and in great condition aside from the copper giant squid, but I can salvage the 4 tentacles for a future custom project. The Icthyosaurus in the upper right of the image is worth way more than what I paid for the entire tote, as it was only ever offered in 1 set in America, and only for a year before being phased out and replaced with a similarly sized shark for the remainder of the time the line was at TRU.
The figures are in great shape aside from one of the divers, who is missing a hand and a foot, but he has some cool pouches that can be trimmed off for a future project. The accessories are the older, solid ones, not the modern ones that are hollow on the reverse, so that is a plus.
The boat is a bit rough, but has some cool tech details that can be removed via disassembly. The cages and nets are always welcome for diorama projects.
There are also a few random Imaginext accessories and a robot shark that will be useful.
Not a bad haul for $4.99!
