G.A.tor Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Rick, I think you may have evolved into one of the top Batman collectors.Man you are smokin !!!!!!!!! I agree! Your collection is one of the best I've seen folks, my bat run is pretty special, but koko is already surpassing me on the tec run...and, if we do a little dance together, he will surpass me sooner than later...but, couldn't happen to a better fellow tec collector! gator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tb Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I must be a masochist to be trying to get the whole pre-hero run. That's a real treasure. I am fairly sure you have never posted this before. I completely understand your approach to collecting. Like you, I prefer to take on long term projects that require a lot of focus and patience.

But with what RHG is going after I suspect he'd be happier if he didn't have to measure "long term" using generations as the measurement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the ones I still need are not the rarest, I just haven't found them in the grade I want. Others may not even exist in the grade I want.
