Korvac Saga Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 The only bad thing you could possible say about that book is its not an......Avengers! It does star a founding member though so I guess I can give you a pass I'd almost bring it with me to see the movie, but would be worried some kid might puke on it or spill a soda on it or something! .....our cat Blacky's water broke on my slabbed ASM 20.....didn't hurt it a bit. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u P.S. As you know, a cat can't allow ANYTHING to command more attention than it does. Wow, CGC should work your testimonial into their advertising: "cat proof on every level" or words to that effect. My cat Archie was completely unimpressed with this book until I equated it into cans of cat food and then he was really interested!! One of my favorite quotes about cats goes:"In the time of the ancient egyptians, cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never forgotten this!" Love the little beasts!!

Dark Knight Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Now thats a perfect looking JIM 83!!!! I hope to own a copy similar to yours someday! Would look nice next to my af 15. Congrats Korvac! Truly gorgeous!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korvac Saga Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Thanks everyone, I'm thrilled to have it! Certainly a defining moment in my collecting history. A mega key that I'll always be proud to own + from both a QP and PQ standpoint, just a knockout. Would look great next to your monumental AF15, DK! And I wouldn't put too many books in the same city with that singular book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sufunk Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Damn! I thought it was a dream but nope, that freaking insane JIM is still here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sufunk Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Does this mean you have to unload some HG Avengers to pay off that monster??? If so, i think i might know someone who would buy them...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korvac Saga Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Book is paid off and it wasn't easy!! Took my 7.0 under copy and a hefty mix of super nice books including ST, TOS, TTA, BB #28, DD #1. And I'd do it again (and probably will for the right book) in a second!! Wish I had some Avengers for you, but you seem to be finding 'em just fine anyway!
