So being a Newby to collecting after a 30 year hiatus this is
What I've got so far. One complete set of flesh (236). Maybe even close to a second one...I don't really know. I know I'm along way from a master set...if it ever happens. Needless to say my wife has no idea what I've paid. It's nice to find some like minded people as crazy as me.

Nice.  But good luck on the master set.  haha.....There's guys looking for the same figures for yeeears.  Don't go down that dark path.  haha......

 

And wives always say that.  Mine does...and she knows I know what I buy.  They just say those things to aggravate us because we would probably start grabbing toys in event of a fire instead of the wives shoes.  haha......

Holy crap dude!! I hope you shopped around and got some good deals... Sometimes Ebay can be a little inconsistent price wise. As someone that started actively buying muscle stuff on Ebay about a year ago (adding to my childhood collection), I think you have already surpassed my collection lol!

Have fun! Nice haul!

Damn these holy grails... master FoP collection DOES NOT EXIST! No one has one and i dont think anyone has even seen all the figs(not including hyper Vlad cause i will give people credit for the master collection even without him).... kind of funny none of us serious collectors(haaa prove me wrong again) havent even seen pics of our holy grail(s2 secrets... PAIN IN THE ASSSSS!!).

Well... The hunt. Is. On...

Nice man! I wanted to start collecting these but fistful of power comes first xD

I know that Blackhole Sunshine, SHA's, the 11 , and so on are impossible but to complete a full color set of all the postered figures would be a master set to me.

As far as a purple claw is concerned it is somewhat possible if your willing to pay. Maybe in the future when he's the last one to obtain and most guys have given up.

Anyway....can anyone enlighten me on who ARForbes is and how he corned the market???

I only know one person that has a master set, and that is up for discussion, no one knows for sure if he has a master set or not but he is pretty close. other than him there are a few people that are down to their last handful, and that has taken them years and hundreds of dollars. Many try, but most quit before they come close.

a purple claw will likely run you around $800+, there are a few class a figures that will run you in the hundreds of dollars each as well. there are a few class a figures that will run you in the hundreds of dollars each as well. That is if they ever show up, That is if they ever show up.

is ARforbes thou who shall not be mentioned???????

yes

The full color set is what is considered a master set, but that's even impossible now- because of one green BamBamJi that showed up. Now- only that one collector will truly have a full color set if they ever get all the other colors.
Also, the purple claw has come up quite a few times the past few years. There's a few red class A figures that the same master chasers are looking for....and haven't been seen....well- almost never. Much easier to get a purple claw than a 68Red.
