MU Production Errors?

Marvel Maniac · 01-26-2012, 07:50 AM

With Thousands and thousands of these being produce Anyone have any figure Production errors or card?

I would like to share one .You are looking at "No abs" Sub-Mariner.I thought this was quite interesting,When This wave first came out in stores..I was going through all the figures trying to find if any had a variant so i'm like ok looks like this could be one...So my friend calls me later in the day and says "Hey you you see the variant for SM?"I'm like yes the no abs!!"He is Like noooo it's the Imperious Rex figure stand!"Lol Funny I thought...

So wondering if anyone has something like that?Maybe I'll put it up on Ebay for a $1000.00? With a whole song & dance .How it's the only one..LOL

I don't have any open but that looks like his torso is reversed (his "no abs" are really his back and I bet he's got a 6 pack on his back) IDK, anyone have one open to check?

Shawn Woodbeck · 01-26-2012, 08:11 AM

I had a Darkhawk with one leg, but I left it in the store.

I've found that these production error figures are mostly worth less than the regular stuff, not worth more...

behindthemask · 01-26-2012, 08:55 AM

prototype stuff goes for big money, take any MU figure soak it in paint remover for an hr and walla, lol. Other then that wrong comic in 2packs, or wrong name on packaging,or wrong picture would be worth $$, I believe your guy's mid section simply got reversed when placed in the package.

AndyCR75 · 01-26-2012, 09:07 AM

I have a packaging error Thor/ Frost Giant, but not a production/sculpt error, but holy crap when d-bags try to pass off errors as "variants" that goes up my @ss. (well notsomuch anymore, but once upon a time..)

AndyCR75 · 01-26-2012, 09:08 AM

Cantina/ Guy Gardner. Oh man, is there even anyone here that remembers that? There are so many people gone or inactive now.

I like a good story..lol

Shawn Woodbeck · 01-26-2012, 10:01 AM

There was someone on ebay trying to sell a Star Wars Cantina Musician/Guy Gardiner in a Marvel Gigantic Battles pack as a variant. They had pics and everything. BRUTAL.

Creepy looking though.

As to mistakes, I got a Human Torch from the SW two pack with TWO LEFT HANDS!
I had to chop up a Showdown Torch (which sucks anyway) to fix him.

I saw a Steve Rogers with no leg stripes once, but it was not worth buying.

I have an Iron Man 2 glowing armor Iron Man with two right hands. I debated on getting the stupid thing but I'm glad I did. It's worth easily $1000 judging by Marvel Maniac's official price guide

Jason Abbadon · 01-26-2012, 10:11 AM

Just put it on ebay as "rare"- you'll be a millionaire in no time!

scottmurdock · 01-26-2012, 10:15 AM

@Jason - It seems like everything on evilbay is marked "RARE" or "VHTF". I wonder, would a listing stick out more if you put "COMMON" or "VETF", LOL.

Go all out and use "Limited Edition", "Variant" or "Hard To Find"- the other bullshit sellers use.

I'm sure someone is selling Arctic Destro and Gladiator as "rare".

wolverine2281 · 01-26-2012, 10:35 AM

found it

Jason Abbadon · 01-26-2012, 10:37 AM

Nice- at least the Cantina Alien closely resembles the box art- who would ever guess it was swapped out?

WOO! BOTH FTW!

Yes, people are saps.
I've seen the blue and silver Sentinel on ebay as "variant comic con exclusive in box" and Tron figures with a BIN of $20.
Really...Tron.
