Hi all,
Been on here the best part of a year now and I'm so close to finishing my series one sets... I just need the following and then I'll have full s1 neons and all the premium colours. If anyone can help me out with any of these figures, either trade or for cash, please get in touch...

NY great beast (unstained)
NY griffin (unstained)
NY hobgoblin (unstained)
Pink ghost
Blue great beast
NG gremlin

Thanks so much!!

Some tough ones there bud - as you're probably aware. I'll keep my eye out though. NG Gremlin in particular is a pain!

[andy53600]

Yeah I'd say the same as Burty here, especially those Neon Yellows you mentioned. Can't say I've ever seen those sculpts in this colour, apart from Griffin maybe once? but since then (whenever then was) that was it!

 

As for the Blue Great Beast, that particular one was a freebie inside Shreddies (in the U.S.A. only I might add). So you might have to pay a little more for that with postage costs and import charges. In case you don't know which ad I mean here it is: http://www.raumhafen....M.P. Promotion

 

I thought NG Gremlin would've been one of the easiest to find considering it's available in all four corresponding colours. Is it really that hard to get hold of?

[jackowock]

Thanks guys, I do know they are tough, but this is a good place to try and source them! At least up until now. I'm pretty chuffed that I've got as far as I have and got but I'm determined to try to finish the sets. I think blue gb will be ok, green gremlin does seem hard but I also don't understand why!!!
If really love to find a pink ghost. There's one on eBay Australia but the idiot seller wants 300 Aussie dollars!! Nice try mate!!

[PaulEWog116]

Wish I could help you out. I need most of those too. Pretty tough to find. 

[trumanshower]

yes, so hard to find those monsters, in my opinion the easier to find will be blue great beast.

Absolutely! He is probably the rarest of the Nabisco figures but still not impossible to find. I have seen several recently/

[jackowock]

Yeah I've been offered one for 58 euros (about 70 usd) but that's a bit too much for me! Hopefully someone out there will have one spare at a better price.

[Strontium Dog]

Blue Great Beast shouldn't be too hard to find, it pops up fairly frequently. I wouldn't value it any higher than $25.

Yep that's a ridiculous price for a blue Great Beast! Always have to be cautious when people 'offer' you a figure, as more often than not they're try to make you think they're helping you out, yet are charging way higher than it should be.

[fkro6784]

Great Beast premiums seem to show up a bit less frequently than other Nabisco premiums, but I don't think I'd pay more than $15-20 for one. I still need both colors, but the thing about the Nabisco premiums is you can score killer deals on them if you wait long enough.

[Behemoth]

Yeah $20 plus shipping is a normal price for Blue Great Beast. He sometimes goes for slightly more, but nowhere near that offer.

This has recently come on ebay if you haven't seen:

I believe he's looking for unstained figures.

[jackowock]

Yes bought that before I saw your tip, thanks for bringing it to my attention though, the ny hobgoblin looks almost perfect, don't have to be pristine just don't like the ny figures with massive staining.
1 down, 5 to go!
Thank lrg team!!

[Blackrabbit]

Nothing my end pal.

 

I just bought a whole ton from a car boot

[Ericnilla]

I have a mint Cyan great beast for sale if interested

[jackowock]

Sure, I'm interested, send me a pm if you have a price in mind...

[jackowock]

Just bought the neon yellow great beast that's on eBay. It's a little stained but can always upgrade it if I find a better one... So... Only ny griffin, ng gremlin and that pesky pink ghost majorly missing now...

[Rataxus]

Hey mate looks like you are going really well. I am at a similar stage with my collection and have seen all of the neons come up on eBay at some stage over the last 3 years or so. What I haven't seen at all though are the ghost and cerberus premiums! Good work on tracking yours down and best of luck with those last fews. Let me know if you run into any doubles haha 

[bigburty]

The lime green Ghost and Cerberus are a pain - I have the pink, but not the green. I'm still seeking them, but not as actively at this stage as will be putting my collections in storage soon, plus I've just splashed out on my first 1/6 scale figure!

[jackowock]

Yeah, I think being in the UK helps with the lime and pink ghost and Cerberus. They do seem to come up maybe once every 6 months. Still annoyed at that idiot Aussie. Don't know who he's kidding if he thinks I'm paying $220 or whatever it is... *sigh*
