            Now, it makes sense that I missed it. This certainly does deserve the spotlight. What a find!

                    Just reread this. Still stunned by the story. It makes one think that more JJ’s will continue to surface if they truly were that common.

                        Arrived yesterday, from SA!!!!

                        Here he is now in a wonderful reproduction box, with an original Mego Museum JJ card, with his trusty Jupiter, the black panther, who always accompanied Jet on his adventures!!!!

                          Great story, I had similiar but not quite as successful endeavours seeking Jet around 2006. I put want ads in South African publications and actually found one via a record dealer. He was cleaning out a house of it's records and noticed a Jet doll in cabinet, he bought it and contacted me via the ad.

                          I was content and gave up my search, four years later I got an email from a woman in the UK who grew up in SA, she saw my ad and had a nude JJ and asked me to make an offer. I brokered the deal for a friend.

                          I still think it's funny how she contacted me so many years later, you may be surprised to find a third one.
