    Mike you should sign up for the Houston Astros . Ikeep seeing you knocking all these home runs brother . Finding a cabbage patch doll was awesome but also finding a cricket doll as well with all the extras well thats one heck of a batting average on top of so many thing's you find that are worth so much it's what keeps me glued to your video's and wanting too see more . Your energy level is out the roof and going as fast as you can . That is working well for you and your intuition you have fine tuned doing this for so long . It gives me great pleasure watching you score time and time again hitting these dumpsters. Keep up the good work i love the fact that you donate things that you find to help the community always thinking of the less fortunate. Brother my hats off to you and a bow you are truly good man . One of your big time fan's Sincerely Keith Mishler

    TOMY toys Carson California 1977. I used to live about a mile from the factory, we used to scavenge in their dumpsters and find plenty of decent toys, my fave was Digital Derby. Years later it would be my first place of employment.

    Mike, what you have there is a Dan Tranh, a Vietnamese Zither
    Dan Tranh began to take shape in the Vietnamese traditional music instruments orchestras in the 11th century. In the late 13th and early 14th centuries, Dan Tranh had only fourteen strings so it was called “14-string zither”, but then by the late 1980s, Dan Tranh with 17 strings appeared, so it changed the name into “ 17-string zither” and become the standard version of this instrument. Larger zither with 22, 24 and 25 strings have also been made in the 1980s and 1990s. Dan Tranh is a plucked zither of Vietnam, which has a curved shape. The soundbox consists of a curved top plate, a flat bottom plate, and six side-pieces. From the axis to the position connecting strings, there are some movable bridges. The higher their position, the smaller their size is. The strings are made of steel and have varying diameters. They are tuned to the pentatonic scale. Performers usually wear picks made of metal, plastic, or tortoise-shell to pluck the strings.

    So envious of the Barbie tote and the Tomy wind-ups. Most of the dolls look to be 80s. The outfits and accessories are probably more valuable than the dolls themselves, but all together, they'd make a heck of an ebay lot. The cardboard backdrop may fetch $10 or so, by itself, since paper parts are usually the first to get destroyed.

    One more thing brother, I was going to tell you on stuffed animals and stuff that are older you can check them for lumps. LOL, I guess the older folks used to hide their valuable items inside the stuffed animals, they actually sew them in. I watched a show where they were going to demolish an old house, and it had like 50 or so old stuffies in it, and they started searching them for signs like lumps to find valuables, they found some seriously valuable stuff, and one really, really expensive pearl necklace. Just another feather in your cap for keeping an eye out for that kind of thing. :)

      I got my first "Xavier Cabbage Patch Doll" (signed on their bottom) about 37 years ago to date at the Roses Department Store in Camden, SC... Yes, I got one of the first ones out and stood in line Forever! I think I had accumulated about 6 of the authentic CP dolls before we downsized in 2012!
      .
      FYI, The CP type in this vid looks to me to be a homemade doll from a kit. Not sure if there's any value there or not.
