I've been to Antique Malls in my hunt for plastic crack, and it is always disappointing. I only saw vintage Joes once and their prices were jacked up even though they were sans gear and in crappy condition.
I did score some nice beer mirrors though |

Antique stores are like eBay sellers...some know what they are doing with toys and some don't.

I use to see SW figs at antique malls, but found the prices to be HIGH!

5-6 years ago I used to hit Antique stores for Joes (before I had kids and more time to hunt). It was very rare that I found anything Joe related, and when I did it wasn't ever anything that great. I had the most luck hitting comic book stores. One store in particular had tons of Joe stuff at great prices and he was always bringing in different stuff from storage. My vintage collection exploded in size because of that one store.

In the Downtown area where i live there are 4 or 5 Antique stores..a couple of them have had vintage Joe and SW figures but the condition they were in and the prices they were asking made me pass.

There's a Terror Drome Complete at the local Antique mall today. It's $250.00 so I can't afford it.

Growing up I thought it was pronounced ANTI-Q's.
Anyway flee markets/antique stores, pawn shops, thrifts stores, goodwill etc all can have plastic gold. Just need time determination and luck, lots and lots of luck.
