Hey everyone,

My name is Maarten and I'm from the Netherlands. I used to have about 8 MIMP figures when I was younger, but now I'm trying to build a collection.
So far, I've only bought this: http://cgi.ebay.co.u...E:X:RTQ:GB:1123
Could you tell me if it was a good purchase?
I myself thought the price was right...
Are there things I should look out for when purchasing MIMP?
The things I want to collect are only from the old series 1,2 and maybe, if I happen to stumble upon some, series 3 Nabisco Frosted Wheat Shreddies/ Big Boy monsters....
All the best,

Maarten

Thanks!
Glad I didn't pay too much!
First of all, I'm going to try to get all the different series 1 and 2 figures. After that, I'll probably want to collect the colour variations and the series 3 figures...
Series 3 is the series with Jimmy Squarefoot and the Centaur, right?

Yep but expect to pay lots of money

Hmmz...
Well, First I'll see if I'll succeed in completing a complete 'basic set' and maybe if I can get a good deal somewhere I'll get some of the series 3 MIMPs.

There is an auction on eBay right now for about that has well over 150 monsters, series 1,2 and 4, that you might want to look at. Its only at USD 19.99 right now which is an awesome deal. The lot also includes the 4 monsters that were exclusive to the board game which is pretty cool.

That's a great auction indeed, but unfortunately the shipping costs are about $ 39, which is way too high in my opinion...

Ahhh, I had forgot that you said you were in the Netherlands. $39 is quite steep of a price to pay. I know eBay U.K. has some decent MIMP auctions, I would check there. Shipping would at least be more affordable.

I would'nt check ebay UK we have no auctions at all ok we do but im greedy
