The simple fact that you know what any of that means... makes you an expert. Sorry!

Nice pickup! Not many of those.

Story time where you find it? And more importantly has this book been ever identified for what it is?

 

 

[B-Smooth]

Many of us have tried and failed to find out exactly where this book came from. It still remains a mystery.

[fastballspecial]

I think as others have mentioned it just another Marvel Legend Toy Reprint of some type. Its too similiar to those to not be some sort of reprint. Whats the indicia say on the book?

 

[B-Smooth]

It's not a reprint. It has the identical indicia of the regular issue. I've searched every toy with comic included in the entire universe, and came up with nothing. It MAY have been meant for one, or meant to be some kind of giveaway, due to lack of price tag. Still, nobody knows for sure yet.

[KolmarAvenue]

Every Marvel Legend reprint I've seen advertises the toy line in some way. This is identical to the regular issue except for the cover. I think cgc should've labeled it "no price" variant rather than "logo" variant. I finally replaced the copy I traded away! More details to come (hopefully)...

[B-Smooth]

Beachbum's copy? Since you've found two of them, can I get the next one you find?

[KolmarAvenue]

It's coming back blue label 9.2, pretty stoked-expected 8.5-9.0. Next time paper airplane! I have some other cool rarities coming back on that same invoice! Man of Steel 18 5th 9.8, phonogram recalled 9.8 and UXM 303 pressman 9.8!

I know this is an old thread, but is the Uncanny X-Men #423 price error still a big deal? I just found one at a garage sale.

[Doktor]

I don't know if they're a big deal, but I've kept my eye out for one, cause it's one of the few books I need for my complete uncanny x-men (including variants) collection.

[KolmarAvenue]

Yes, there's probably less than 30 known copies and a great find.

Anyone know how much these have sold for?

[Metarog]

A slabbed 8.0 sold back in August for around $80. I was offered $250 for my NM awhile back when only a couple had been discovered.

[Carl Elvis]

Thanks for the info Metarog. I'll be sure to keep an eye out.

 

 

[Carl Elvis]

That was quick, just scored one off the bay for $10 (302 not 423).
