Of the production ME figures produced so far, the rarest by numbers is the convention Python Patrol Motor Viper. I believe only 350 of those were made.

If I had to guess the Rarest o ring (US) would have to be the recalled Roadblock right?

Which explains why he still eludes me. I blame the wife as she forced me to cancel our trip to close on our house! I would go slap her around but she would total kick my ass at the moment.

Some really rare released ARAH items I can think of: the gold headed Steel Brigade Hit n Run (Target card) -this one hurts because I had a carded one in my old collection DEF wave 2 Australian cards (I also had these) the humans in the last wave of Star Brigade (such as Effects and Oxone) the first version of Steel Brigade with Airborne's chest The first version of Starduster with Recondo's chest |

That figure is an interesting case because it was released, then recalled, so it sits in between being a cancelled figure and one that was released. What adds to the confusion is that the figure (sans the unique equipment) was later released in large numbers.

I found out about the error years later so I tracked him down agian.

I did even think about Star Duster. I only consider Hit n Run to be rare if he is carded because just about every "clever" seller on ebay has one listed for a small fortune with the mail away chute but no one seems to have his file card. Lol

Yeah I had purchased an attending set. When I realized how tight my schedule was gonna be I called the club and explained my situation. They then told me I would have it mailed to me after the con so I was stoked thinking I was still gonna get the free item but only got what would have be the home front heroes set. Still better than just a refund.

I forgot about the Cobra Red Star. He is indeed rare, probably rarer than the Roadblock and most of the figures I mentioned. The thing about him though is that the distribution was not even, so some areas got some while many didn't get any. Another example of this was with the tan Ozone (most were grey), the small logo Keel Haul and Backblast, the orange/blue Battle Corps Alley Viper with stripes (I only found him once and that was in Mexico), and some of the other later Battle Corps variants. Red Star Likely beats all those too.
