McDunsel Custom Trek figs. How often u see these!?

[noelani72]

----Marta and Salt vamp sold. Thanks!

Mkay.
I gotta offer these up to the group first - this is where they got their start.
Anyone who's been 'round these parts long enough knows the history...and these ARE history.

These are the fantastic works of Captain Dunsel, DaveMC and myself (backer cards).

These figs haven't been available for how many years now...

Yessir...and the others still in my possession are more costly.... :cool_y:
As I was just mentioning in a PM, the Dunsel figs are my Holy Grails.

Guess I should have done more research before I sold this...

Yea, with the right publicity that could have sold for a good chunk more

[Kaotick]

I've had it for weeks, and looked everywhere I knew of and couldn't find anything. I should have just posted it here. On the bright side, the buyer is a good customer, and I'mm glad he got a good deal, and I did get it in a lot that I only paid $36 for, and have sold off most of the rest of it for a nice profit.

Now, before I do this again, lol... anything here I should be aware of?

Thanks guys!

Kaotick -

it would be polite to start your own thread requesting info on your lot. :)

[Kaotick]

Sorry, didn't mean to hijack :silly:

[megocrazy]

You would have to say the Salt Vampire was actually an early prototype of the Diamond released figure. They're pretty much dead on and were the direct piece used to promote the character. Even though it wasn't made for that purpose originally they pretty much are the original design concepts of the mass produced figure.

I have 4 dunsels im having a hard time getting rid of as well. Chekov and pike are just customs not dunsels

yessirie ...I just didn't want to "promote" them as such since I am not affiliated with the production :grin:

I do have second thoughts about letting them go, but I want to fund another grail.

I'd give my left nut for a Decker :)

[Meule]

What do those card backs look like?

What do those card backs look like?

The cardbacks on these particular cards are just the typical Aliens scan.
When the McDunsel line expanded, the next round of cards were done in the 5-face style and I did portraits of the faces for the front. Then, the backside of the cards features photos of the actual figures.
I'll post some pics sometime for ole time's sake.

Marta and Salt have sold!
Thanks for a fast sale.

[mishu2nite]

Is marta tied down, or do you have double sided tape on her to keep her from sliding around? I never sealed mine to the card because of her flopping around.
