Please feel free to make me an offer through PM.

Now the items:

I bought these ToyBiz 2001 12" Action Figures brand new when they hit the shelves prior to the release of the movie.  These have remained in my possession ever since in a smoke-free, air-conditioned environment with little to no UV light exposure.  They have NEVER been opened.

I will sell these in a bulk set.  I don't sell or otherwise collect action figures (just a couple Spidey toys), so my only reference point for the "value" of these items is what I could find on Ebay.  It looks like most are selling these for $45 ea or $100-$150 for the set that I have.

So I am asking for $125 plus shipping costs. 

What Spidey stuff do you have?

Theo just responded and here is his response back to me when I told him his art is 100% NOT DRAWN BY JOHN ROMITA SR............

 

"Mike your entitled to your opinion!

But in my opinion it’s a great Spiderman and to me it looks like it’s done by Romita which i I am entitled to my “opinion!

That’s why we live in America freedom of speech you know!

I appreciate your opinion it’s just different then mine!"

 

 

He just raised the price from 59k to 69K after our email exchange!

 

This entire listing is an insult to JR Sr.  I have asked him to change the item description immediately or be reported for fraud.

You never see 63 in that grade... it's tough in grade. When I was selling Bill's ASM run, I lost track of how many folks asked about it. GOD BLESS....

What makes this book so valuable and hard to find in this grade?   To me, it's not the greatest Romita cover.  Either way, it's a great book....just curious about the demand/value

I believe he was discussing 82 actually.  Electro cover by Severin IIRC (published) versus a relatively strong Romita (unpublished).   The unpublished was much more pleasing to the eye and was by the artist with the stronger market value generally, so Mike was simply expressing a reasonable opinion, in my view. 

Does anyone have a link to this cover?  I can’t find it online and would love to see it!

As a Spidey guy who likes Romita art, I should be all over this, but I’m finding it difficult to feel excited about this cover, because:

1. Um, it’s the Kangaroo.  Ohhhh, ahhhh, lame-o.

2. Spidey’s back is facing the reader, a deterrent for me.

3. It’s just a normal looking guy wanting to jump on (over?) Spidey.  No super villain costume, no death-ray or otherwise perilous contraptions to add to the frenzy and danger of the moment.  Just...YAWN 😴 

I would say this is 100% true of any other Spidey artist.  But Romita drew some amazing Spidey covers that include Spidey's back, which makes him appear more vulnerable, in my opinion.

Some of my favorites are:

(I realize this is stretching it...lol)

JR Sr seems plausible.  Another favourtite Hulk image of mine is Trimpe's back cover for the 1975 Marvel Annual. The front cover by Ron Wilson was used for a value stamp, but with the face from the back cover pasted over it.

Really interesting because it appears JR SR redrew that image as well!  In fact, it seems he did a compilation of a lot of this classic art.

Herb Trimpe drew a similar pose on the 1976 Marvel Annual's cover.

Wow!  Great find!  Any idea who drew the updated version?  I would bet JR Sr, but curious if anyone knows for sure.

I love how the fonts of the title match Spawn and Spider-Man!

Sure there is GPA Analysis, Go Collect, etc, but this is my childhood

Okay, and who drew this one?

 

(I'm going to get a tattoo and trying to figure out my favorite "classic" Hulk art to select.  These two have been my favorites for a while.   I'm guessing this is JR SR?

Okay, and who drew this one?

I love the art 

Does anyone know where this is from and if there is an English language version?  I’d like to own a copy!
