I found one a couple months ago, it was the complete set in perfect condition for around $30 CAD. I tried to buy it but got outbid, it was the next day that I checked my email and found the exact same lot for $75 CAD. I realized that the person that I had "competed" against was actually the seller driving up the price, I got really ticked off by this considering that I had been searching for the M60 for around a year now. I learned a pretty big lesson there, you just got to watch out for those kinds of people.
Right now there are no less than four Boley Tanks on eBay. Last week a nice one sold for $72 plus shipping. More available now than at anytime in the last two years. If you want one right now is a great time to find one. Good Luck!
Thanks man, youve really inspired me to make some stop motions, to be honest its a fun concept and im glad your here to teach me some stuff,its really cringey right now but its getting better, thanks for the awesome videos :D
So far this year there have been 8 Boley M60 tanks on eBay. I purchased two of them for my collection. Boley's occur in dark green, tan and camo green. Tan is by far the hardest to get. The last one sold on eBay for $185. That being said someone sold his collection of four (one had a busted barrel) for $120. Busted tanks go for about $55. Mick is correct, if you want one you have to search eBay everyday. They do come up for auction at a rate of 1 or 2 a month. Last year one sold for $245 before Christmas. One way to find them is to search soldier collections that include a Boley tank. Some sellers have no idea what they are selling, but most do know. Good Luck!
Another Boley story: Was searching through generic toy tank collections/lots. Sometimes it can be months before you spot a Boley, however I found a collections sale for $99 "Buy it now". Normally that's a bit much because over half the collection I either have or don't want. But I was bored and looked at this item closely. First thing I noticed was the additional Boley stuff, Hummer, missiles truck and so forth. Then I saw right in the middle of the display not one but two perfect Boleys, one dark green, one NATO camo type. Then I noticed the listing date. This had been on eBay since May 2022, that is, it was listed for 5 months at $99 and no one (including me) had noticed it. Of course I bought it immediately. I think the key is not just searching for "Boley Tank"; yes that can work but you will spend at least double, maybe more. I have had the best luck searching under "Toy Tank Lot" in Toys and Hobbies or all categories. Also, check under action figures. For reasons that escape me some people insist on listing toy tanks there, go figure. It is not unusual for people selling Boleys to have no idea what they are selling. Bought one with a broken barrel for $12 last year, found another in a Fishel Soldier Tub, also un-named in the listing, that was $25. Anyway, good luck to everyone on this and develop your own search method, think outside the box. Boley hunting has been good this year, I have 11 now, 3 with broken barrels. I also make replacement parts for these tanks so if you buy one with a busted barrel and a missing machine gun/turret I can fix you up., no charge. Anyone who loves Plastic Apocalypse and Boley Tanks is okay by me, glad to help. Just leave an email so I can get a send to address. Thanks to Mickamation as well!!
Heh, a good guide, but the sad part is, the majority of people who ask won't watch it, nor will they go to the effort of looking for one. They want that miracle link!
Hope the Next Episodes come out soon. Due to the fact that the Farm Campaign Not having any more episodes after 4 comes out,so you could do something like “Garden Campaign”
Lol I’ve managed to find ONE green M60 in perfect condition. Still looking for a tan one. Nothing annoys me more however than when you find one that has a broken gun or turret.
@YAN BUSTOS EBay funnily enough. It seems every now and then an unknowing seller puts one of these out there without knowing it’s value. I got mine for $13.00
I had this M60 as a kid I think it was in a Toys R Us set from the Elite Force or Peacekeeper series. The turret on top used to turn to. I still have it but i think the cannon is broken. Was one of my favorites. I also had a MI24 HindD and an Apache.
6:23 this was a real thing that happened in the uk during the 80s or 70s. They would watch a movie and then this would pop up as an ice cream lady would go around selling ice cream. Meh dad always said it pissed him off XD
I've only heard from 2 or 3 people actually finding them in thrift stores and what not which is why I made this video to give a run down on what the "easiest" way to find one is
@@Mickamations I’ve found a model of the M-60 tank on Thingiverse but I’m glad to see someone is making their own based on the original Boley tank which is so so hard to come by
Hey Mickamation what about you disassemble your M60 patton to 3 pcs the machine gun turret,the main turret and the main body then you make a 3D model of the tank so we can 3D print them.
Sure, I get that it's cool looking, but I don't understand why so many people get all jazzed up over a little plastic tank. I get that it's super rare, and I too, have been collecting vintage/ rare army men. It just seems silly to me...... I'd rather stick with my 1/35 m60a1 model kit.
Mickimations i had a big brain moment First someone gets a 3D scanner and then scans the m60 Boley and sends it to shapeways who 3D Print it and then the person can sell it and make a lot of money and the community sings hurrah.
@@hunterjarman4728 Ask for like 10% of the profits. If they refuse leave it there and wait for them to come crawling back because they won't be able to find it.
