I looked on one of the sites for the Hellboy II piece and they wanted $450 for it, but I saw it on ebay for $300. You think its worth getting it from Ebay instead. It was protected by ebays buyer protection plan?ActionFigManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01230578351036022091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-25318065376597167472010-10-18T08:14:38.820+08:002010-10-18T08:14:38.820+08:00Hi Peter (love your blog name :>)

I curently have a couple of pieces such as Blade from Marvel, Daredevil, a couple of Joe pieces, an Iron Man (the cheap plastic one), A couple of bluebox pieces, and some Swat members. I also have Richard Marchinko... <br /><br />Anyway, any advice you can give starting collectors. Would you mind sharing your distributor. I usually purchase from EBAY, Cobstar, Amazon. and a couple of other sites... Anybody you think or know is realy good. I would appreciate it. <br /><br />I left a post on another piece on your site but I cant find it, wasnt sure if you replied. <br /><br />Regards,ActionFigManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01230578351036022091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-10133360407248162432010-10-01T22:26:01.431+08:002010-10-01T22:26:01.431+08:00hi Kin, perhaps this version is the prototype and ...hi Kin, perhaps this version is the prototype and maybe they'll tweak the jacket before its release CHEERSalex teohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10434098393320787285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-31832339594147679542010-09-30T14:13:18.047+08:002010-09-30T14:13:18.047+08:00Hi Alex,

Your reviews are well written with in depth research with a good twist sense of humour especially in the weapons featured in the scale figures! Kudos to your excellent reviews<br /><br />May I suggest can you add a search query for Toy Haven so that I can easily search the figures.

He keeps it with him while he stalks Kyle and Sarah in the multi-storey Car Park. He then uses it to exchange fire with Kyle in the ensuing chase.alex teohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10434098393320787285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516693355743712750.post-5669350981468657502010-09-24T20:08:02.618+08:002010-09-24T20:08:02.618+08:00Figure looks great but I don't remember that s...Figure looks great but I don't remember that shotgun in the movie.
