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.

Warrior Winged Don
Warrior Winged LEo
Sumo Raph
Sumo Mike
Scratch
Black Belt Boxer Mike
All Undercover TMNT
Apollo 11 TMnt

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... ^^;

Well, there's always casinos.... no no, eBay is worse, nevermind.

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?

That's basically what it is, anyway. But don't tell that to the guy who shelled out $208.44 for the real thing. 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

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