    bro, you can't go wrong on this auction! great score! They vary in price depending on condition and paint wear.

    would be awesome if you had the ring of fire with the wonderwoman!

    i'm sure you already went to completed auctions to see what recent ones have sold for.

            He is pretty tough to find with the knife unbroken. I rarely find these figures at ANY shows, and when I do they are extremely expensive.

            You can pretty much write your own ticket with that Aquaman, seriously.

            Awesome find. Wish my eBay-fu was that strong! Been looking for the villains from this set, lately.

              I've never heard of these , (I didn't even know Ideal made mini superheroes), and it looks like the seller never even heard of Aquaman. If it's as valuable as you say it is, boy did you luck out!

                They are rare, so it is no surprise that most collectors don't know they exist.

                I love them because the villains they chose were amazingly obscure! Instead of Luthor, Manta, Brainiac, or Despero, we got The Key, Kaltor, Brainstorm, Mouseman, and for some reason.....Johnny Thunder's Thunderbolt!

                  Jeez, Damien, that was one HELLUVA score! Aquaman with his knife is just about unheard of. It and Wonder Woman's ring of fire are almost always gone.

                  I currently have Aquaman (no knife) Wonder Woman (no ring) and two Robins. I just got another Robin in with a cape, finally. The capes are often missing on Batman, Robin and Superman.

                  The Justice League playset that saw limited release is perhaps the most valued super hero toy of all time. Only a very few are known to exist, and when they have sold, it's been for astronomical amounts.

                  I think someone at Ideal must have looked through JLA #37-38 (Aug-Sept, 1965), where the evil Johnny Thunder of Earth-One takes control of the Thunderbolt and has him battle the JLA and JSA.

                    Could be. Just recently added Keyman/The Key to my collection.

                              My understanding is, the heroes were always painted, except in the Batman 3-pack that had Batman, Robin and Joker. None of the villains were ever factory painted, even in the gift sets.

                              It seems the Batman unpainted set is a lot more common. I've seen several carded examples on ebay recently.
