Only found one sadly, hiding away on top of a Walmart shelf, but I have my Stalker; cross me off the list!

There's nothing like starting off a Friday night by going to a funeral. Woohoo!
I did swing by a Wal-Mart afterwards to find... nothing. Yippeeee!

Yes, I remember it every day as I'm ARAH shopping.
I remember when a complete NM '86 Beachhead would set you back somewhere around $6, Vipers, BATS, CGs, an Troopers were "expensive" when they hit $18. You couldn't give away most BC or Star Brigade figures. This list could easily go on, but I'd rather not get my blood pressure up.

Damn! Sorry bout that Capt. My ex-stepdad's wife, of 30 years passed away last Saturday. Tomorrow is her funeral. I remained close to him after he and my mom divorced and his new wife was an awesome sweet woman.

I hear that. I have a couple carded shadow ninjas that friends picked up for me just because they were cheaper than cheap. I'm trying to collect them all loose now and kicking myself for putting it off so long. If you can even find them anymore.... Street Fighter and Star Brigade are giving me the same fits of curmudgeny. "Back in my day I could get a Blanka and a Lunatix for a nickel and an 89 Topps Dennis Rasmussen card!"
@Beach- no worries man, I get that. I'm not above flipping occasionally either, especially to fund my own collection. Don't get me wrong, I'm super happy with (and prefer) just giving things away, but sometimes something comes along that I have to get something for. The CI Trooper and Jinx I have right now are good ejemplos- I can give a great deal on them, but I can't do them free. It kinda goes back to that fine line we've all talked about to death- there is a fine line between scalping and coming up on something that's perceived as valuable and using it to further one's collecting goals, and most of us walk it daily. I have a sense of trepidation every single time I post an eBay listing, or even just asking for a trade- will I be the one to be called a scalper today, despite the many times I've demonstrated the exact opposite? What TrueJoeFan posted earlier hits home. That guy is the furthest thing from a scalper there is. Also, Pleased to meet you, hope you guessed my name.

Thanks man. This was my mom's best friend, so her kids and I all grew up together getting into trouble. Sorry for your loss as well.

Does anyone here know if the 25th and vintage Firebat body molds are the same? Not in surface detail, but like will a vintage top half fit the bottom half of a 25th?

Right?
Only collecting 6” SS/SE, and that set hit the sweet spot. Otherwise, it’s 4” or bust for this guy.
