[WTB] MoC Scratch

[Kinnder]

Been on the hunt for one for a while now, so just pinging the forums to see if anyone has one they'd be willing to sell. Willing to pay good money for one.

Only interested in MoC.

Thanks!

He's one of only a couple of figures I need as well. Been watching them on ebay. The last carded one sold last night for nearly a thousand bucks! Insane!! I want a loose one in mint condition with accessories and even those go for $400 or more.

Good luck on your hunt! If you find one let us know how much the damage was!

Yeah, I think it's gotten to te point where you're looking at between $450-600 for a loose one and $1000+ for a carded one.

The one that ended last night at $1100 didn't even look to be in that great of condition.

I'm still kicking myself for not buying that "TMNT LOT" of figures recently on ebay that had Scratch plus 40+ more figures and a BUY IT NOW of $50!!!!

That one brought a tear to my eye...

I was saving Scratch to be my absolute final figure to complete my moc collection, but when I saw that he went for eight-hundred bucks at the last auction I knew I needed to just get him now before he blows up anymore. Hoping to find one before the end of this year.

I think $1100 is pretty high too, which is probably why i don't have one.

Popularity for this figure is crazy. I am surprised every time. Im around the $500 range for this figure MOC. Maybe my head is in the sand.

I've owned two of this figure,

I bought a afa one for 1100 which i later resold for 1400 and then was lucky to find another moc one at 540 with a nice case. My mom spoke of one last year at 300 moc buy it now that didnt last more than 2 minutes... I was pretty pissed she didn't buy it..

One sold here in chi at a comic convention I was at for $400 moc. I almost started crying that i missed it, silly seller.

Just 400 bucks? Crazy... The max I'm willing to spend (For now) is six hundred.... I'd probably go to eight easy >.>

[Kinnder]

Yeah, the hunt has been going on for me for a little while now. I tried bidding on that one that ended on eBay last night, but, wow, can't believe it went to $1,100. The issue is that I don't think these Scratch figures will do anything but increase.

Found mine for a $1.50. Pretty sure I messed myself a little.

I've come pretty close to just settling for a loose/complete Scratch a few times, but I don't know. My entire collection is MOC and while it would technically be complete, I don't think my OCD would let me slide that easily... I'd look at my wall and see that empty space and glance over at a case with Scratch and just hear him taunting me... "He doesn't have me MOC, I think this collection sucks, maybe it does". Horrifying...

I came DANGEROUSLY close to selling off my NECA TMNT set (The clamshells, none of that tube packaging nonsense) to take part in the Scratch auction yesterday...

I can empathize with this comment. In over 11 years of collecting turtle memorabilia, I'm still a mixed bag in terms of on card or off. I've often thought about collecting strictly loose, sell everything I have boxed that I didn't need, and finish a run through the mid 90's. It's so hard to part with the vintage gear though as it takes a considerable amount of effort to procure to begin with.

I've thought about it, too, but like you, the OCD wouldn't let me do it, and I'd rather try to find an MoC Scratch, just because I'd enjoy it more on card.

Me too. I've had pretty good luck getting some of the more expensive figures for a bit less than they usually go for on eBay, so, knock on wood, I'm hoping lighting can strike one more time for Scratch. *Crosses fingers

The right place at the right time. I assure you, no better deal has been made by me since. Haha.
