True the Sky Stalker did make it to market. I remember all the Toyrus, Ventures, and KBToys in my area, had the Sky Stalker in stock and they sat on the shelves forever. However, the helicopter known as The Tiger Hawk did not make it to the US Market. The Tiger Hawk was renamed and repackaged as the Battlehawk and sold exclusively in India. I was lucky enough to have both in my collection. They also made an exclusive green repaint of the Sky Stalker for the overseas martket, but I've only seen it MIB and I don't own one. Very few of these exclusives vehicles show up on Ebay and when they do they usually sell for under $100. I picked up my US Sky Stalker MIB three years ago for $25.00, that's including S & H, which is what it retailed for in stores back in the 90's. The Battle Hawk was a bit more, but it was still under $60.00 with S & H.
What sellers have to understand is the items they're selling, any collectable item is only valuable if its popular and a lot of people want it. If the item doesn't have those two factors going for it, you can forget trying to sell it for $5,000 to $4,000. GIJoe Extreme wasn't popular with a lot of Joe fans, and many fan don't even want to acknowledge its existence, plus the toy line was a complete failure. I'm one of the few members on this board that liked the cartoon and remember the toys fondly. Also the Thunderin Fury isn't as rare as we think it is. I remember someone posted a pic of the GIJoe Blockbuster tank for sell MIB on Ebay and in one of the photos they posted, they had a stack of Boxed Thunderin Fury tanks in the back ground, just sitting there, about eight or so staked one on top of each other. I'm still kicking myself for not saving the pic from that auction. Oddly the seller was an ex-Kenner employee. So I believe they're more out there then we realize. The ex employees likely brought some home, knowing the toy line was a failure, hoping that one day they could make some extra cash selling them as collectors items MIB on Ebay in the future. So there out there guys, we just have to not give in to these high prices when one shows up on Ebay. Looks like a cross between the AGP and Skystorm |

Agree drunknmunky, that price is pretty up there. Like the OP said, its only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'd maybe relist it without the 4K starting bid, and put a reserve on it if you are wanting at least a minimum amount. I'd also rethink that outrageous shipping cost. Shipping should cost what it actually costs to ship, perhaps with a slight increase taking into acount cost of supplies and time.
the tank does look cool though and may fit in well with my ARAH Joe's with some minor modifications. I'd pay $45-$50 for it, since I'd plan on opening and customizing it.

I just noticed the Extreme line says Kenner on the package instead of Hasbro.
