I cannot believe that only 3 exist. Items do not get produced in 3's. 5 maybe. P)

It is actually not as rare as some think, I've got a friend who is an outright He-man freak who has one loose, and wouldn't sell it for 40,000 dollars let alone 20,000. He says they were pretty plentiful but not as plentiful as say Battlecat or Greyskull. I tried with all my convincing powers to sell his series 4 stactions cause the were going for like 250.00 for the set, he was like "no, then I'll never be able to get em again".

The individual items are common enough, as noted earlier in the thread. However, those two items in that packaging...rare as hell.
I'm just amazed that it isn't AFA graded and/or acrylic encased. Imagine if it fell off the table while he was taking his pictures and the top flap got creased/bent... |

First off I just registered to comment here.
20K is not out of line at all. Not to mention it has OBO and who cares if he's charging shipping!!! Do any of you know how much shipping and Insurance will run for this thing???? Try about 300-350 for it. I know for a FACT that one sold a few months ago for 15K+.I'm not sure of the exact price, but I know for FACT it was more than 15K. So 20K OBO isn't out of line at all. I am MOTU collector myself and there are some product in that line that most of you will never see. Nor will you ever here of the people that buy them. You might call them Shadow collectors and those are the guys that spend BIG bucks. There are 6 MOTU Giftsets out there that would fetch 10K plus easy and I'd say that at least 4 of them most have never seen for sale. I too am a Joe collector and the market is totally different with rare MOTU than it is for Joes. So for those of you who don't know MOTU, I don't expect you to understand, nor will you ever understand the market. There aren't that many Joe collectors out there that would spend 10k on a piece and there are several MOTU collectors that wouldn't hesitate. Nor are there that many pieces that would fetch that kind of price for Joes. The only one I can think of would be the Vamp/Hal 2pk and the only reason I know that is because I sold mine for that price. That is probably the rarest Joe piece too. There are NO known sealed examples and only 2 known sealed contents examples. Both are graded, 1 is an 85 and the other is an 80. Yeah, the carrier is valuable, but only an AFA 85 could reach that price. Some pieces went crazy in the Premier Collect Auction, but you really can't go off those numbers. So that's why most of you will never understand 20K for a piece. You don't see anyone on He-Man.org bashing his price. They all are drooling over it, wishing they had the cash to buy it.
