Red Ninja 12-inch Figure

[onethousandmasks]

I've got the exclusive of this guy.

Is it worth keeping him in the box? Or am I fooling myself into thinking these things have return value?

If I were to open Red Ninja, Storm Shadow or Beachhead, which would lose value the most?

SS GI Joes tend to go down in value or stay the same, rarely up. I think Snake Eyes is the exception, but even now he is still obtainable at a reasonable price. Unlike, Hot Toys Predators that go for a ridiculous amount of money in a short period of time.
But I agree, figures as an investesment is not the way to go. I learned my lesson the hard way in the 90s.
Enjoy them!!!

Leaving it in the box is losing the value of enjoyment.

Was that in the bible? If not, it should have been.

 

[EVILFACE]

I think it was. Geniss 6:51 "Adam removed thy DX Joker from the box, decreasing the value and was cast out of the Garden of Eden and forever cursed with the whining of women."

Value of enjoyment >>>>>>>> eternal damnation

Agreed. Enjoy it the way it was meant to be!

Go get em!

Thank you sooo much for the heads up! I was able to snag the arm and leg guards finally and felt so good about it that I went ahead and added all the stuff to make another redninja too. This time I'm going to use the extra head from Firefly. Still have plenty of extra pieces from the original red ninja I ordred, such as hands and weapons. I also have an extra prometheus body as well so it works out to about $60 to make the figure.

 

[screamingmetal]

Awesome, glad you picked these up since they're now sold out.
I thought I'd have everything for my ninja but didn't realize that the neck post is a separate item! I don't see why they did that, seems like if you bought the body you'd obviously need the neck joint.
Now I'll have to call and hopefully add it to my order before they ship.

because the necks can be used on several bodies, and it makes them more money to split them up.

I get that but what good is a body without the neck post, most heads are the no neck type nowadays, it should be thrown in for those that buy the body. And if someone needs a neck that bad they should just get one from the extra included with the True Types.

I used a Hot Toys Royce body on the Red Ninja and storm shadow they look so much better

 

[ProgMatinee]

That would be overkill for me on the Red Ninja. Not sure what the point in using a visually appealling body under a full body outfit, but more power to you if you can afford it.

I only use the muscle bodies on figures that have exposed musculature.

 

[ProgMatinee]

Even if I could afford it, just seems like $50 can be used on much better applications.

If I had the extra disposable income, I'd give it a try. I like the look on Storm Shadow, but I'm loathe to try it and cut off his sleeves.

Anybody willing to / have done a custom sleeveless Red Ninja?

 

[EVILFACE]

No customization needed, just don't use the undershirt.
