I'll go to the old stand by, "It's only worth as much as someone's willing to spend on it." And for me, that's freakin' insane.

[Eiko]

Dam that price is ridiculous.

[Drose18]

I wonder if some idiot will buy it.

[HotJuicyBurgers]

Wha? Huh? How is this even possible?
I don't understand the world sometimes

[1988]

well I would pay it if it was the only one in existence...but if there are 2-3 others no way would I pay that....so I am asking, has anyone seen others?

[Mzx10484]

Could that be manipulated ? And if not, I wouldn't buy that because I don't care for packed grenades...

I was thinking that..could you not just take a normal genghis frog, make an incision along the card, take out the grenades and put them into a plastic bag and slide it back in....not possible?

anyway why the hell does the seller value this at $1100

This is no competition for Slash with purple belt or purple armored Super Shredder... my opinion

[pannoni1]

Myteefinestuff is way ahead of the times... in terms of prices. You see a slashed out price and think its a great discount- when it only turns out to be a dollar off. This site is absolutely the last resort for buying new stuff, and that is if somehow all of my figures got destroyed and the only place to buy that item is there.

where can I look for stuff besides ebay and myteefinebluff?

Genghis with bagged grenades is much harder to find than slash with a purple belt. However, if you would rather have slash with purple belt, then cowabunga. That's what is so cool about collecting, it's worth what someone will pay.

For the record, there are also genghises out there with green belts and bagged grenades. If anyone out there has a bagged grenades genghis at all and would like to cash in on me, I would love to assist, but I too will kindly pass at $1100.

agreed on the slash thing. but i would love one of those just not a $1100.

joemoe has the awsome genghis w/green belt off all graded. (lil jelious) ,

And question? super shredder can come with purple armor moc? i thought that was just some kid painting his armor?

For sure, purple Slash is not that rare as maybe a Genghis with bagged grenades, but purple Slash looks great what a pack of grenades not does. Apparently I evaluate things by appearance...

But maybe the German purple Super Shredder comes closer to Genghis with bagged grenades.

Dude, purple armor shredder is not nearly as valuable as you think it is. Get offa that.

Dude, maybe you don't like it, but it is.

Liking something ≠ Value

[Mzx10484]

Liking something ≠ Value

The value of a collectible is individually, yes. The value is what a collector is willing to pay. I have met a few members here which "like" Purple Super Shredder MOC, what makes it valuable, that is what I could see in the discussions. That is why I say he is, even if some does not like it.

MTF is good for seeing how many variations of figures there are and he's usually got any figure you want, but his prices are steep. Far too often his prices are beyond my wallets threshold... The Mutant Masters still taunt me to this day... Someday. Someday...

Your local flea crap market haha not like you get a choice of what to find, but it might turn up some good buys.

Why dont you email him and ask him?

[1988]

Why dont you email him and ask him?

I did...he said it was based on rareness...there is an even rarer yellow belt bagged grenades version too...I can only imagine the price

[Scotty TuffGuy1979]

IMO the genghis frog w black belt on and bagged grenades is as rare as metalhead without yellow burst,

Also I do have a genghis frog w green belt not on and bagged grenades, only one I have ever seen not to say there isnt another I just havent seen one before, so very rare

As for the price like someone said its what your willing to pay and how bad you want or need the item, rare tmnt is hard to find

So I had a ton of figures as a kid and spent countless hours playing with them, but unfortunately most were sold. Recently I've been trying to buy some of the ones I used to have. I recently came across this and can't find any others with the green jacket. I know it's in rough shape, but I only paid a few bucks. I just wondered if any of you had any info on it.

Thanks!

That looks like yellowing/sun damage to me. If it was a variant, I believe the whole shirt (sleeves included) would be green, not just the hard plastic part that typically yellows easiest. Usually when blue plastic yellows, it turns green (I've wound up with some green Cobra Commanders and Stardusters that way)

[RainDownOnMe23]

Oh ok. Even if it's the exact same shade of green on both sides?

[Shogi]

Yeah, the yellowing process is sometimes made by direct sunlight and sometimes by chemical reactions between other plastics while they break down over time. Many times these chemical reactions result in an even discoloring of the plastic

[BubbaShelby]

$1,100 is insane for that Ghengis Frog but hey, he is free to set his price wherever and if someone has that kind of money to burn, that's their choice too.

But I do have to say Myteefinestuff has some great prices on a lot of basic accessories/weapons/etc. I was able to finish out my Scumbug, Muckman and a couple Slashes I have for pretty darn cheap!

[ComicBookBoy]

Someone on this forum recently bought a Genghis with bagged grenades on ebay for under $100.
