I thought better examples were about the same price? That box is mangled.

Think about the odds of something that big surviving intact all these years. It's crazy when you think about it. I remember back in the late-nineties/early 2000's some guy supposedly found a mint and sealed Flagg in a Toys R Us stockroom. It was on top of the shelving or something like that. That's a nerd's wet dream, right there!

Never was a huge fan of it. If I could have chosen, I would have gone with a Terrordrome in a heartbeat.

Yeah, TRU was a client of the company I worked for a few years ago and I sometimes went into the stores to check on stuff. Just looking around the backrooms back then, it became clear to me that most stores were really good at clearing out stock on a regular basis and I held no illusions of finding some long lost treasure, so I grew to consider that Flagg story a bunch of bullshit. I did find a frisbee behind where they stored extra shelving in a store, but that's it.
