Hi guys.... Its been a LONG TIME... YOu may or not remember the Gi Joe Dios I did back in the day, Storm Shadows Dojo, etc. ANYWAYS. In the last 8 years I have gotten divorced, NOT RELATED TO GI JOE. lol I went from a 3D Graphic Designer for an Architectural Company to being the Head Brewer for a local brewery down here. And Yes I have done a bunch of Star Wars beers and next month... a Real American IPA. lol
So. I am revamping my basement and buying a searching for some old figures MOC, Who here buys recarded figures. I mean the ones where I assume someone is printing out a nice res card with the words REPRODUCTION on the back? How DO I decide what to pay for one? lol I mean Ebay has lots and then there is Black Major which I know nothing about. Just getting back in to the hobby and looking to start with low graded cards and work my way up. Thanx all Camper

For me, it's just a matter of "what would I pay to own this?" when looking at them. I think my recarded Firefly was the most, probably a little over 100, but looks fantastic, both the figure and the card art. Baroness and Jinx were around 75, and I think my hooded Cobra Commander and "black Storm Shadow" (I think it was a Black Major on Ebay) were around 100. Very happy with them all.

PERFECT... Now do you have the REPRODUCTIONS or just a really nice card that someone recarded, because I see both. Yeah. If it makes me happy on my wall at home, then I think that is what I will care about. lol Im not selling anyways

Thanx all Camper Check out Beggarscanyontoys.com .They make nice enough old school repro card backs with true vintage bubbles. They even sell recarded figures from time to time. They have videos of how to use their products and recard yourself if you want to experiment with doing it yourself. You’ll save money and maybe even have another level of appreciation for your collection. https://www.beggarscanyontoys.com/ Actually it seems that they will recard your figure (using their repro cards of course) for a nominal fee.
