Found all but two at a flea market for $20. Was that a good deal?

I'd say yes for sure, especially if you end up finding some of the harder to come by series 1 figures in there.

I'd go 2/1 that the missing figures are series 1 :)

I see there's a poster with 100 figures on it. Where all 100 figures released? How many series were there?

3 or maybe 4 ?series got released before jakks screwed up and stopped the line. so no . not all 100 got made.

when they stopped the line series 2,3, went on super clearance .  like a buck a pack or something like that. but if you have series 1 in there. id say its a good deal

Ok, for the base figures I'm missing Officer R.I.P. and Mighty-Bite Mac. Also missing the two GITD figures Decayin' Dom and Neil Armgone. So technically I'm missing four of the 66 figures. Also, all eight Xmas figs were included.

The GID's  were never released and considering you got 14 of the series 1 figures, you got a fantastic deal.  The last time I saw a series one 3pack (probably close to a year ago)   it went for about 50.00 since the 3 packs have some of the harder to get figures.

Ah ok, that explains the "all but two" that was written on the box.  And damn, $50 for a 3-pack?  I'd say I got an incredibly fantastic deal, considering I paid about 29 cents a figure.

No big deal. These were a gift for my nephew, anyways. He won't know the difference. All he knows is he got a box of awesome zombie figures!

Ha! Well, he's lived with me for four years, and I'm currently in the process of adopting him. So, if I took some of his toys away, I'd have to see that disappointment in his face everyday.

As I said above, I'm adopting him so I can't always be the cool uncle. I have to be his father-figure too, unfortunately. He's only 4yo, so I can't spoil him too much. He loves minifigs though, so I couldn't pass these up when I saw them.

I was mostly kidding with just a little hope, but I did want to say that's awesome of you. Good luck  and hope the process goes smoothly for you.

I stand corrected.

You sir, are the greatest of uncles.
