To this forum I would be considered a casual fan but I have picked up a few (as many as my wife would allow) 25th anniversary figures. I was reading today about a "yellow stalker". From looking at pictures on the internet, I am not quite sure if the one I picked up would be considered a yellow stalker or just a plain old stalker. I would be interested to hear others weigh in

Looks yellow to me. I'd say you have around $200-$280 there

I made a tech mistake but a good deal in fact. Last October I bought the only stalker available at target which was yellow one. I picked up green one kept green and traded yellow for a Flint. Found out later yellow stalker is worth a buttload of money oh well only paid 5.99 for it and at the time Flint was and still is over 30.00 on eBay or to other collectors

Yup, that's definetely a yellow Stalker. Do you guys think that Stalker will hold his value or go up or down in the coming years?

When the price first started going up on these (around $75) I found a BIN on Ebay for $14.99. Exorbitant as most of the scalping prices were back then, but it was yellow. So, of course I bought it. I then made the mistake of asking the seller if I would get the exact item pictured. He said "Yes of course, is something wrong with it?" I said, "No, just make sure I get the exact item pictured". Shouldn't have raised a flag. Needless to say, I didn't get my item for 2 weeks and guess what...he was green. Guess he had to keep going back to the stores to find a replacement.

Probably up since I doubt Hasbro will ever release the figure again. In that pic almost looks like Stalker has blue eyes, too (probably just the lighting). Did the Yellow Stalker have blue eyes as well? I remember Hasbro's prototype photos of the Yellow Stalker had bright blue eyes, too.

Like the others said, it's the yellow version. Nice find. Better find a nice case to keep him in. Don't want to risk any damage.
