    Made a killing at the convention last week

    Man, they're just throwing stuff at ya at cons these days.

    They were selling boxed Sideshows between $ 6 (SIX!) and $20.
    I actually bought three Bond 12 inches for $20 (new in box).
    And a Sarah Connor for $25.

    Marvel Legends between $5 and $10. Bought Colossus and Omega Red. They're exchanging blows on my computer desk as we speak....

    A large Wing TIE Fighter for $25, boxed.

    They had a boxed mego Robin for $100, but I ran out of cash, and already have my loose Robin.


    I should save up all my $$$ for this one weekend....

        Did you see any of the Star Wars 12' Sideshows? If so, what were the prices?

                    Must've missed that one. I did see a boxed Robin for 170 euros (about $250), but the box wasn't in good shape. Also saw a boxed Batman for $375.
                    And a lot of overpriced crap and even some CTVT's and EMCE's

                      Heck, almost forgot Chuck Heston (Sideshow) for $15.
                      He even has a gun. Why am I not surprised?
