I got an absolutely PHENOMENAL 10 back Splinter today. I mean in GREAT shape! REALLY pleased with it. Shipping and all it was only $52. I think for the condition it's in that I really got a good deal. What do you guys think?

At first I thought 18 dollars was a tiny bit over a decent price but looking at the fig in its sealedness really makes me think it was worth it, the NTNM figures were actually pretty good. Well, at least the turtle figures. All the other figures sucked. Actually the turtles and that Rank Soldier are the only good ones.

Aren't the nm figs kinda rare though? I think that's a good deal.

I got the 03 Lair the other day as an early birthday present. I'm a fan of the play set but I can't leave things as they are.

Well that rarity factor kinda makes it look cheap. How long were those figures in stores back then?

I splurged a bit on ebay and bought an item that I can't remember seeing on there before: a complete Mega Bloks tub set from the 2003 line. It is "opened" in that the tub is opened, but all of the parts are still in the original baggies. That completes my MIB set of 2003 MB sets.

Got the Polaris Slingshot and Pizza Thrower in mail from Amazon today. I'm thinking about keeping Slingshot in box and opening Pizza Thrower. I hear things rattling around in the box. Haven't been impressed with Amazons care of packages. Have received figures falling off cards in the past. Hope the pieces are not broken in the box. Slingshot looks good though. I know ahead of time when I order from Amazon to be prepared to open the item and not keep in MISB or MOC.

The rattling will likely be the pizzas. You get a lot with this set and they come loose easily.
When it comes to vehicles, I have to open them up and display them with the box turned to its back. The pizza thrower is probably Playmates most well rounded vehicle since the range was rebooted.

That eases my mind and make sense about the pizzas being the noise. I don't purchase every vehicle but this pizza thrower has been calling to me for awhile now. Oh and the Slingshot well there's something about orange and black that just looks cool.

On a side note, I don't think I could buy vintage MISB, I would be paranoid that someone just put some garbage in the original box and resealed it. How do people verify the item is actually in the box?

It's strange because I was also thinking about keeping the Polaris MIB

Yeah I'm still in the fence about what I'm going to do. Oh the decisions of a collector.

Wow those are some highly desirable figures dude, would love to see pictures. For the pickups I'm guessing it was an eBay binge? Winged warriors, Super Mutants, and Shoguns are all on my eventually list for sure. Congrats.
