The ones I've been looking for the most lately is all the Dinozaurs figures MIP.
Dinozaurs barely ever show up on ebay.

The first two eight figure kinnikuman the second Capsule figure sets, then series 5-8 that just won't release on the east coast. I Hopefully got one of those packs on eBay though. It showed the kid and Bone Cold pack, but it said that wasn't the one it was to late. With shipping I paid $11.50 before I realized I didn't know what I was getting. I think it is probably one of the 5-8 packs, but it could be a 1-4, then I'd be mad.

No-one would care but I only need like 5 posts to get to 200, so I got series 5, I guess it was worth it.

Well, I have gotten lucky. Two of the items that I listed in this thread I have managed to acquire this week. First, I have finally scored the gold Baron Karza that was limited to around 150 figures. Someone on the Microman/Micronauts e-mail group tipped me off to an online sale of this figure. Then, Doctor Kent came through with the Microman Rescue Base! And for a price much less than what I have seen during the rare occasions that you can actually find this thing on e-bay. Thanks again, Doctor Kent! My holy grails of toy collecting of just decreased in number.

Another toy that I wished I purchased is the Tao Devil Ninja the thing is just awesome, real metal weapons, highly detailed, too bad they don't make them anymore, and those who have it, I doubt they'd sell it...

Omfg... Trashbag toys? Were those the toys that you put in water and the outside bag would dissolve showing the toy? If so, I used to have a bunch of those and didn't remember them until I read that post! Whew... This forum sure does bring alot of old memories back.

Hello people

What is your LRG holy grail? Do you already own it?

Mine is to own a complete flesh set of M.U.S.C.L.E. men found by myself from yard/charity/thrift/jumble/garage sales and the evilbay. A nice little goal.

It was completing my Kinnikuman regular issue set. But that finished up early this year.

M.U.S.C.L.E.-wise, I would have to say finding 1-2 M.U.S.C.L.E. Super Rares, but with my Magnificent 11 find way back when, that was accomplished.

Really now, I am just glad that I was able to get rid of the store inventory so that I can now have room to start displaying my core collections.

I guess my next big dream, toy-wise, would be to open up a toy museum that has an associated toy shop to help revenues. For me, that would be awesome.

I think to eventually get all the Laser Beasts would be cool, plus a Jimmy Squarefoot MIMP for cheap and finding a new Super Rare M.U.S.C.L.E.

Right now my two fave BBs I own are: King Buster (Clear Red TGB custom) & Grin Reefer (Clear Blue TGB Custom)

It's so inexpensive comparatively, but finding a TBB Liceplant yeeeaaars ago was a personal holy grail for me. I'd wanted that one since I was a kid!

I have many, I think. One would be to get a Comichara Kinnikuman vehicle. I'd also like to have complete set of Kinkeshi.

My ultimate goal is to own every series 2 Monster in my pocket (including the GITD and Series 2 coloured Series 1 figures)
My holy grail at the moment is a sealed Kelloggs boglin I got him dirt cheap and although he isnt worth a bomb he is nice to look at.
Another favourite of mine is my Magazine Exclusive Thoughtcatcher but im sure that will change when I get my first Forest Mystica figures.
