I'm still keeping my eyes peeled for Lex for ya, and if I see a good Retro Baroness, I'll snag it and let you know. Quote:
What’s everyone greatest or most unexpected find?
I remember when I was first getting back into Star Wars. I needed a Darth Talon/ Cade Skywalker two pack and CW Ashoka. This was probably close to a year after the two pack first started coming out. I dipped into a Kmart not expecting to find anything and they both. Talon was going for over $50 on the bay at the time and I got her at retail price. Pretty awesome.

My $150 complete Cobra Terrordrome. I was just going to get a couple figures off this guy. He showed me pictures of his vintage vehicles. The Terrordrome was never in the pictures. I picked out a few vehicles along with the figures I wanted then he asked, You want a complete Terrordrome? Me: How much? Him: $150. Me: Hell to da yeahhhhhhhhh!!!!

Same thing, I reckon. If I saw 'em, I'd probably buy 'em. I dunno, man...it's like the shine has worn off this stuff or I'm burnt out or something. The interest isn't what it was, I guess.

Back in 2000-01 when the ARAHC shit came out and I was first getting back into this toy stuff, I came across a local classified ad for some guy's childhood Joe collection. Tons of figures and vehicles in great shape...early stuff too, from '82-'88. Plus, there was an unplayed with mail-away APC or CUDA still mint and unassembled/unstickered in it's shipping box; and the MMS, Bivouac, Mountian Howitzer and Forward Observer all new and sealed. I bought the lot for some low-ass price, like $75. I then sold it all off a few years later like a dummy. After de-mintifying them, of course. I made a killing though, but it still sucks. No way I'll ever find such a clean lot for peanuts again. Then again, the fun was really in opening that shit up, assembling it and stickering it. It was like being a kid again.

Nah. Personally, I had all of wave one in hand and have already given or traded them away. They're cool I guess, but they just don't go with my hordes of 4".
Of course, that's just me.

They're cool, but not my cup of darjeeling. That scale just doesn't do anything for me...something special is lost when an action figure is too big to fit in your pocket. I bought that Cobra Trooper I stumbled across, but I'm donating it to homeless kids. I dig the idea of kiddos playing the fuck out of a toy adults covet.
