Holy Crud!
 
Seems like someone was really wanting an undercover leo... I was almost going to bid when it was at $20 but thought it was too high, guess it wasn't... lol

Glad I already got mine a long time ago.

Holy crap in a hat! That's quite a chunk of change.

Orochi Chimera 09-19-2004 06:54 PM

Damn $208.44. That's ridiculous.

THats something you'd pay for a lot of atleast 200 figures but not just one jeez.

OA 09-19-2004 07:18 PM

Yea, i was gonna bid on it too but when it started going into the hunderds I was like whoa!!!! Must be the gold coin....definately not worth it IMO

wildcatnz 09-19-2004 07:46 PM

I bidded 70 :o and i was kinda hoping to get outbidded. :p

And in the end whoa :goofygri:

FALLEN ELDOR 09-19-2004 10:41 PM

What price do they list for? :o looks like I'm returning to that idea I had to repaint DON, UNDERCOVER TURTLE mask 3 times over :lol:

E-money 09-20-2004 08:43 AM

Some of the most expensive figures I have seen on eBay are:

Giant Slam Dunkin Don
Shogun Shoate
Shogun Triceraton
Warrior Winged Don
Warrior Winged LEo
Sumo Raph
Sumo Mike
Scratch
Black Belt Boxer Mike
All Undercover TMNT
Apollo 11 TMnt
News Van
Some rare roleplaying
Gags/Jokes Series

And some other I cannot think of right now...

Ah yes, eBay. The greatest place for folks like us to lose money since... well... whenever it started. o_o

I was going to get the entire old series on there when someone had it on VCD for $20... but I always wait until the last minute to bid. By the time I came back on it, it was over $300! Needless to say, I dropped that idea... ^^;

That's the best bidding tactic aside from using "Buy It Now". With my luck, I always end up winning auctions for things that no one else wants, because I'm usually the only bidder. I stay away from popular or scarce things because I haven't got the money to flaunt for it.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to just buy a plain Leo figure and scratch build a trench coat and hat?

Yes it would be.

That's basically what it is, anyway. But don't tell that to the guy who shelled out $208.44 for the real thing. :wink: I believe he's paying for the intact box and the collector's coin though.

Also easier said than done. ^^;

But yeah, true enough. Easier than shelling (no pun intended) out 208-some odd dollars for it. :/

[enter comic book guy mode] It's actually an undercover don's head on a toon raph's body but painted to look more like undercover don than toon raph. Then the trenchcoat and mostly new accesories with a bunch of others repainted and voila plus there's no gimmick so there's nothing sticking out of his shell [/exit comic book guy mode]

Huh? :-? Are you saying the undercover Leo in that auction isn't the real thing? I bought Krang MOC off that seller, he's a pretty cool guy :)

wildcatnz 09-21-2004 03:17 PM

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MEWA:IT

No, it's real, the figure itself is just a retooling of the above figures.
