Good gawd I am gone for a couple of weeks and stuff finally starts hitting az shelves. I did the duke renegade in Vegas but passed on it.
Speaking of Vegas I went to the Toy Shack on Freemont street which is the home of the Pawn Star Toy Expert. I played dumb while in there and the manage is more of a diecast guy. I ended up getting arah storm shadow, mission to brazil wet suit, straight arm zap, tiger force dialtone from the dtc line, tripwire, and he did me a 'huge favor' and threw in the "very rare" valor vs venom belt buckle variant of hooded cobra commander that he told me was a G1 figure. Then he pulled out some random accessories he told me went with the figures such as alpines gun, dustys gun no bipod, red baroness accessory pack gun, and a star wars biker scout gun he swore went with the joes he sold me. So I got it all for $25.
In the store they have the Flagg set up and on my way out I asked what the price of "big gray ship" was. He told me $2500 and he had just turned down an offer for $2100. He went on to say the box alone brings in $500.
I truly wish I was joking. He was not the toy expert that shows up on Pawn Stars but I would think the expert would try to educate his staff better.
