    with times being so tuff, are you having any luck finding deals?

    I know times are tough, and there are deals to be had on ebay..but I've been finding some good stuff these last 3 weeks...call it luck if you will, don't worry, most of the stuff you'll see here soon

    But here's one of the best deals I've seen I've seen this figure in worse condition go for $1000-$1200

    I have no doubt I could flip him come x-mas time, but I told my wife if I can sell something and raise the money, that he'll become mine! all mine I don't care what I have to sell , this is as rare as they come

            Not a lot of complete figure deals, but I managed to snag some original parts to complete/upgrade figures.

              Aside from Superman stuff...I also like Dinosaurs. But the Horizon Jurassic Park Velociraptors vinyl models are still pricey...I managed to get one at a decent price...and had a modeler built it for me...but I still had to drop about $400 altogether on it...but I always wanted that one...lol.

              Another figure I always wanted is the Hot Toys Aliens Pvt Vasquez...I still kick myself to this day...because when Sideshow initially sold them...they were only $79...and I didn't get it. But as the years have gone by...that figure has skyrocketed in price...

              Most of the BINs are $400 or so...


              Now...I have been following this one...the starting price is OK...no box (no biggie for me)...but she's missing her shoulder lamp...her face has been repainted...and is missing her right foot...

              Wadda ya think?

              Consider that this figure in the box goes for around $400

                          yea, but the only thing is that..I bet if you guy her, after a while not having that piece is gonna start bothering...and chances are you'll never be able to replace it

                          but if you don't mind it, that's like having an AE spidey and never being able to find that camera
