Not quite as good of a deal as Chip and I were able to get, but IST has it for a measly $7.99.

Anyone know if these are worth picking up?

I hope they're terrible because I don't want to get involved

I'm unclear on what you are suggesting. I see lots of stuff in comic shops that I don't buy. Can you clarify the point of this thread? For example, I see lots of Funko Pops, but I never buy them.

You will spent more money on shipping if you buy them in several purchases and if idea was to find them all in the dollar box of your town, how to say... its almost a lost cause.

 

For me it was a golden opportunity because i live in Europe and the shipping was only 100 for 300 books!!! Its crazy i already paid this kind of ammount for less than 100 books

Post pictures when you get them!

Had a nice little auction for some Hot Wheels Crack-Ups. Not a huge auction but it had decent interest with several watchers and some people bidding on it. 2 minutes before the auction ends joby3785 puts in a bid a few hundred dollars more than the previous bid. Wins the auction and then messages me immediately asking me to retract his bid. Now I have to start all over again because of joby3785.

Thanks! I didn't know - I've been trying to look stuff up as I go if I didn't remember what it was. I know the TMNT, Star Wars and Joes, but I was a little shaky on the Transformer, the tree thing, and most of the accessories (I think the green crossbow is for Rat King - who is missing; and I think the black backpack is for a B.A.T.s - who unfortunately died in a tragic BB Gun sniping in the early 90s; I wasn't always the best at taking care of my things at the time).

I know the Robo Force is obvious, as well as the raisins and the Astrosnik, and I know that the sheep thing is a Barnyard Commando that may be my brother's. And of course, Bugs Bunny, the Godfather from WWE, a Barenstein/stain Bear, Figment, a tennis gnome and a Laser Beast. And BJ Surhoff and a Sectaur thing. So not sure about the tree guy or the little gray guy with the gun and red visor.

The first gun on the second row looks like Cobra Commander's hair dryer pistol, but the colors look off. The fifth item on that row is Dreadnok Ripper's jaws of life. The red rifle looke like Baroness's weapon but the wrong color. Maybe it's from one of the accessory packs?

I thought he was on death's doorstep?

I thought he was on death's doorstep while also in jail. Did he escape both or either?

For what it's worth, World's Finest also had a similarly long run, but then was cancelled around the time of Crisis On Infinite Earths.

Sadly he seems to have changed his style to whatever that is.  He had a recent Dr. Strange cover drawn in the same style, though not quite as poor quality in my opinion.

Woof! But at least I can sort of see some of his style peaking through on that one. The Wolverine cover doesn't resemble it at all other than his signature. 

Supposedly this is John Cassaday's art on this cover. What happened?

I couldn't get close enough to check for spine rolls, creases, etc. There is some obvious feathering though.

Think you can scrape off the color touch?

They may have been stored outside at their previous location, idk but possible. I was told to come immediately yesterday if I wanted them for free, they were already at the curb for trash day so I didn't have a lot of time to sit and think 😂

I knew they were on a list of things I'd like, so I up and ran. With the dew and trying to take in the situation this morning, I just wanted to clean them and saw that the damage or rust was mostly cosmetic. Got it inside and was like, umm err..., am I still doing this rust spray? The family member I gave the other too wasn't to concerned about it on my end. 

I appreciate the feedback, as it takes a village and wisdom comes from asking many. Lord made a way! 😉

Hurry up and fill that thing with comics.

Local estate sale this morning featuring tools and comics brought out the local nerds and gear heads. 

 

 

That does look like a bunch of tools in that photo.

Not sure if everyone saw this before or has already been posted. Scrolled to the bottom of his home page. 
 

The 29th what? Year?

The other one is the present he's holding, wrapped up. 

Worst gift ever. All the stores must have been closed when Batman remembered it was Christmas Eve.
