    Pocket Green Goblin...the best pocket hero?

    Just arrived today...I scored a pristine mint loose one with satchel for $150.
    Don't know if that's too much, but since I never see him I said the heck with it.

    I cannot get over how awesome this figure is. The sculpt is dead on classic Romita Goblin, and I love that they didn't reuse any parts.

    Even without his glider, he is 110% perfect.

        I personally don't think there is a dud in wave 2 at all, Aquaman, Cap and Wonder Woman are winners too.

          Jeez.. THANKS.. Now I have to hunt one down.

          Great find.. Y'know, I love that way of thinking..: If you really want it.. JUST. GET. IT.

          Life is too short. That's why I HAD to get my '67 Spiderman Pillow. Spent over 40yrs pining for it.

            I have to go with Spider-man. I loved those all black eyes when I was a kid. I thought they were so cool and I still do.

                  Yeah, I really want a Cap BAD. I'm sure he's going to get more expensive with this new movie coming out too.

                    I couldn't agree more! I love the look of all black eyes on Spidey. It reminds me of the second season of the live action show. Makes him look really bug-like and creepy.

                        Yeah, gotta go with Aquaman. Mine is now retired, but spent many days floating around various public swimming pools in the 70's and early 80's. Oh, the stories he could tell.

                          I saw a goblin for sale on Ebay. I never knew he came with a Bag of Tricks. He didnt come with a Glider did he?

                          I really like Him and Cap. I havent seen a Wonder woman.

                            My love of Green Goblin comes from getting The Mangler under the tree once Christmas.

                            I loved this thing. What kid wouldn't want to drive around in a giant truck with a huge mouth on it? I thought the gimmick of the flat cardboard Goblin was particularly inspired.

                              Did Gobby's art look all squashed up?
