SOOOOOO TRUE!!!

In a few months Babe's arm will prob fall off in the box and just rattle around like every other McFarlane figure.

Some people...

That would be absolutely hilarious

I don't really understand the mentality behind this kind of thing. I mean, if it were literally a one-of-a-kind figure, it would be slightly easier to understand, but it's just a different color hat, for crying out loud. Still, people do weird things when they get into collecting. The vintage Star Wars toy collectors will pay thousands for things like production samples or cardback proofs -- stuff that I frankly wouldn't even want for free. They do it because they are very rare and because they've already bought all of the more accessible stuff.

I could probably go to McFarlane and pay him $13,000 and he would design, sculpt, and paint a figure of any person in history for me.

Yup, just think of what you could commission for $13,000, and it would be one of a kind


I think the bottom line here is I am very jealous some ****** could dump $13,000 on caca like this and I cant even afford a half a wall with a wolf

I need to start charging you more for decals

Usually people hate on guys like this. I truly believe everyone simply thinks this guy is a moron. In this economy (I love saying that) its hard to believe for anyone to drop $13,000 on something like a figure with a repainted hat and 2 pieces of tape.

 

[Darthrazz]

Damn

Couldnt you get some genuine Babe Ruth stuff for that price?

You could probably buy his corpse! Limited edition...only ONE made!

 

[Silent December]

I suspect this is just the beginning for Mcfarlane. I could see him doing similar "golden ticket" figures for all his freakin sports lines.

 

[galactiboy]

Yep, seems like a good marketing campaign. People will continue going ape^^^^ over the lines and buy up whole cases in the hope of getting one.

He's gotta do something to keep from going down the crapper!

 

[Morgan the Raider]

I can't believe a person in ANY economy would pay for this thing. What a piece of junk.
