Here's a pretty fun little contest I have been thinking about for a while. Hopefully we get a good bit of participation...


How to play:

1. Go to http://www.ebay.com
2. Search for something that you absolutely want
3. Copy the URL and come back here and post it in this thread
4. If you are feeling spunky, tell us WHY you want the awesome item you have posted!

Rules:
Contest will run through June 30th.
One eBay link per post.
You may post 3 times per day.
You may only win once!
Winners will be chosen at random on 7/1 and posted in this thread.
If you win, I will PM you to claim your prize.

Prizes:
Three (3) $10 ebay gift cards will be given away at the end of the contest.
If you are one of the three winners, you will have $10 to go towards your "Want", or anything else on eBay for that matter.


Good luck!

I'll start you guys off with an example:

http://www.ebay.com/...=item1e9fcd9311

This is a Masterpiece Grimlock figure. I REALLY want to get one of these some day, but for now I can't justify spending the cash on him at the moment. I am a patient man and someday I'll find one on eBay (or at a toy show) for a cheap price and scoop him up then.

Nothing is better than having a NIB Snarf around. I don't even collect Thundercats stuff but I want this. Since I was a kid I have always randomly said Snarf (not daily it is well timed and only a few times at most a year), and I can talk in his voice really well. It has made for some funny moments and really awkward ones (more so lately because all the people I work with are in their early 20s and have no clue what I am referencing).

He is the best LRG figure and who doesn't love a lizard cat!

Even though this toy line (The Inhumanoids) was released only 2 years after I was born, this huge figure Metlar is the first memory of having toys as a child. I must have been 3 or 4 with this huge thing!! I have had one a few years ago but the arms were broken. I would love a fully working one!!!!!

I have been really really wanting a chance and budget to be able to start collecting the various Japanese 5" and taller vinyl Kaiju Monsters associated with Godzilla, Ultraman, etc. I know so little about this stuff, and don't really have anything other than a few of the new Bandai toys released for the new Godzilla movie and the anniversary. I would love to get a nice big lot like this one (and others by the same seller) and jump right into collecting this world.

I would never spend this kind of money on a toy for myself, but Steel Ball Run was my favorite part of JJBA, and Johnny Joestar is my favorite Jojo. These things are sweet, but riduckiluss prices.

I was thinking of the same toy. I have a few memories of this guy and couldn't quite remember what he came from, but recently found him on eBay and was disappointed how pricey he was. Awesome toy!

All the large Inhumanoids demand a high price tag...out of the three, he is actually usually the cheapest! D Compose usually is the most expensive, followed by Tendril, and then Metlar. If you find a lot of all 3 in good condition, that is mega cash. I have none of these yet, but hope to someday. I have a few of the smaller inhumanoid monsters for now. Here are the other two glorious beasts if anyone is unfamiliar.

The Real Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters. Got this for Christmas one year and it blew my mind. I remember pouring the slime all over this with slimer and stay puft. Just the size alone and detail makes it one of the best building sets from the 80s. Could never justify buying for myself, but maybe some day when my son is older.

Huh, that squid is cool.  You can get it in a single-pack, but still hella pricy.

This is the vintage Muckman listing I've been hoping for. Never out of the package because I don't like used toys, but on a crappy card so it won't go for a MOMC price and I won't mind opening it. I've been wanting one to put next to my Toxie figure.

Yeah that's the Japanese version. He got released as a single pack there... however in the states it's only in the three pack. The Japanese figure is compatible with US games, but I prefer having the US versions. Thanks for the find though Steve!

I have those on my Amazon wish list and add them to my orders for free shipping if they are around $6 or $7. Trying to get the chase glow versions, but only have glow Furlox. I have extras of the regular Turbyx and Skully.

I want to own these guys and customize them into a Hyborian/Hyperborean army in the vein of Robert E. Howard and Clark Ashton Smith.

 

EDIT: I'd also like to use these guys for dioramas influenced by H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos and Clark Ashton Smith's Hyperborea stories in conjuction with the Warpo Cthulhu and Deep One figures.
