Hello everyone.
Through 1 major purchase and a generous donation (thanks nathan!) I have amassed my own little piece of G1 goodness... about 51 different flesh MUSCLEs. The problem is that now I am unsure on how to continue growing my collection out. Buying lots is almost impossible because most people use ebay, but if it were possible, I'd probably risk buying a load of doubles. I can't really afford to buy individuals at the price of 75 cents each. Now I'm not sure what to do next. I don't worry about condition that much. so if I could drop 20 bucks to get around 30 MUSCLEs I'd be grateful. It seems like no one is welling to sell clusters of MUSCLEs in Got Toys either. This isn't a commercial so it doesn't belong in the Need Toys thread. I'm just asking for advice on what to do next.

I have some for .50 each. Inked or sun faded, possibly even a scratch or two, but no major mutilations. PM me if you're interested.
Otherwise, just be patient, and keep check ing on eBay. There are plenty of deals to be found.

The good thing about having doubles is that you can start trading for MUSCLEs you don't own.

Not too odd my friend. I personally like having dupes to trade. If it were not for trading dupes, I would of had to spend a lot more money on ebay. Like most have already suggested, look for good deals on ebay. I rarely bid more then 50 cents per fig and I have a rather large collection. I do not keep dupes that much sadly, I either trade them off or sell them on ebay. If I were you, I'd win a few more medium to large auctions, don't waste your time with the small ones because they usually end up being around a buck a piece. Save up, win a few big lots then you will have a huge collection with many dupes to trade to finish it.
