Rare Tong figures (Universal)

These are featured on megolike.com

Wow, are these are hard to find. Does anyone here besides myself and David Lee have any? Did anyone here win these? I had them eyed but forgot to throw a bid before I left this morning. They went cheaper than I would have thought being so rare but perhaps allot of folks don't even know about them. The Redcoat is missing his hat and rifle and the Hessian is missing his rifle. Does anyone have any info on them. They were made by Universal but share the same extremely articulated waxy style bodies as the Tong Indians.

Had them also on my watch list, but things were hectic at work today and I forgot all about them. To be honest I wanted the blonde guy for a custom... probably not a good idea, eh?

[hobub]

Hmmn, I wouldn't but it would only make my set even rarer.

I have the guy in red, and another one in blue. I have been lax in my searches lately. I still need the guy in green.

I don't suppose I could get a cast of that head?

[EMCE Hammer]

No way Thomas!

I actually wouldn't mind loaning mine out to someone to make a mold of. I haven't molded or cast anything for a good while, and I'm honestly hit and miss. If you can convince somebody like Dave/Laurie/Austin to do the deed, I'll send them a head.

Awesome. So Azrak, are you the Doctor Doomed version of Steve Moore from Columbus?

a friend emailed me an ended auction about 3-4 months ago, all of them went carded for less than $15 each, and they weren't hidden, OWCH! ...

I have had a set loose and a carded set over the years, awesome detail and very hard to find!

[hobub]

They might have been mistaken for the RT dolls, which these are anything but.

If you ever see a carded set again for that price, please let me know!

Thanks Azrak, I sent Dave a PM

I have never seen them before, will have to check out megolike.com I guess.

I have the head on my website already-- Paul, but sans ponytail.
