Was scanning for pre-loved Exo-Force stuff at a Japanese 2nd hand shop but found pre-loved Bohroks instead, got them both for RM80 (roughly USD20) total, not sure if i got a bad deal or not. They were assembled and were in really good condition too

10$ or € / complete sets are definitely worth it.
Market price for those are mostly 1.5X to each... Some even sells them 20 each (which is kinda high IMO, but not bad if it's urgent or last one missing from a collection)
Tho I'm an Exo Force fan too, so what more did you see there?
In terms of Lego, really not much sadly, i see a lot of Takara Tomy and Tomica toys (and some old Bandai early Heisei Kamen Rider henshin items), i also see random packs of lego loose parts. I wish i found some exo-force there tbh
Also, this is the one near my friend's place, ill try and check different branches if they have other stuff
True, poor Exo Force got executed so early, not many got to experience it.
However my 3 latest finds were:
the Bridge Walker without the other mech,
7707 Sensai Fortress (not sure about the name, and missing the mechs (but got the box, which is even better))
and the Orange Tank from wave 1
Edit: 7709 is the correct number

Sentai Fortress is 7709, i got a new sealed one, but for 300 euros sadly because i wanted everything in the set (regretted not getting it when i was a kid and saw it in a warhammer tabletop shop) and iirc i had to pay an extra rm200 (roughly usd50) for tarrifs since it had to be mailed from europe to southeast asia but the immigration officer was really friendly and joked about building the sentai fortress with me when he saw it was lego that i had shipped to me
I even modified my Silent Strike, u can check it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ExoForceLego/comments/1pko3lf/silent_strike_revamp_with_additional_equipment/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Im planning on checking the bricklink hong kong stock for exo-force sets (probably cheaper shipping to Southeast Asia) and carousell my and sg for some asian remaining stocks to see if i can get my hands on any exi-force or bionicle

That's cool...
I get mine on fleasmarket for a maximum of 50€ (usually they are not the main attraction in those lots, cause it's allways mixed with Bionicle)
Bridge walker was 15 and sensai was 25 from the same guy
Thats insane, also i feel like old lego is more common over in the west than it is in the east haha, I only mamage to find a Sonic Phantom for rm150 (37usd) complete set with instructions, built and no box
While i found a Grand Titan in toyshops in uk, but was too far for me to go just to get it sadly
You'll get everything eventually...
I prayed for the used market J man for a Takanuva 2008 in my area, cause in East Europe it's really really rare to find and mostly from resellers. Once a guy wanted to buy the sealed Aston Martin James Bond set I was selling for 25€ and asked me if I want to trade it for Bionicles (previously I bought some from him). He straight up pulled out Takanuva without his spear and mask and offered a complete Reidak too, so here I am with a maskless dream set that I got the most absurd way possible.
Absolutely worth it.
I’d say it’s worth it. I just picked up all 6 on eBay for about that much each and personally feel like it was money well spent.
Complete figures with canisters, at 10 smackeroos each? Yes, of course you got a good deal.
Which shop? I'm always on the lookout at Japanese shops because you can get some stuff for great prices (Bionicle never really took off there).
Well i say Japanese but its not in Japan
Its Jalan-Jalan Japan in Malaysia
Bummer. Guess I'll have to look around if I'm ever in Malaysia!
Or Singapore works too, heck any southeast asian country might just have
I think i saw some incomplete bionicle figures in other second hand shops before too. I also want to preface that those shops are probably hard to find lego since its mainly focused more towards 2nd hand japanese toys and anime/tokusatsu/mecha figurines
