    Common figures with an achilles heel......

    To give you an idea of what i'm thinking - Superman is easy to find pretty much any day of any week, but superman with an original emblem is in a totally different league.
    Be it a missing part or a figure that for some reason is often damaged, their common status isn't as straight cut as it seems.

    So fire some more into the pot?

                      Yeah, but Zorro was never common
                      If Zorro was on Ebay on a regular basis but always missing his hat, then that would be in the spirit of things.

                          Yeah, but again, not really a common figure.

                            that's true, but it is the common "achilles heal" of the figure.
