It was really weird. She rang up at full $15.99 price like it was a new DCUC figure. And Harley rang at $12

But as far as price I don't know yet man. I am going to try to get the adhesive off first and go from there. The only 1 I found on ebay was $99 for a loose one. Does anyone know fair market on her in pack?

ToyAddict · 07-25-2012, 05:01 AM

I've auctioned loose Cassie Cain DCSH Batgirls before, I think I got around $50 when the bidding was done. Carded -- I'd think $80 would be the high end.

Assuming eBay gives a representation of market value, there's a bunch of completed listings. . .loose one for $75/free shipping, carded $60/+$10 shipping, $95/free ship, $70/+$12 ship, $78/+$9 ship, $75/+$15 ship with a blue outfit Supergirl, $46/+$20 ship, $48/+$15 ship.

FrankCastle · 07-25-2012, 06:21 AM

Thanks. I'm hoping to get a Deadpool or Crossbones w/ Ares leg in exchange. Not trying to make money off of her. I realize alot of you guys would do bad things for her so I would rather a die-hard DC collector gets her. I only really collect the AC stuff and the Movie Masters.

DogFashionDisco · 07-25-2012, 12:12 PM

I'd say she is worth $60, so if you tried to list her on eBay you'll probably get that or more, which should score you a Crossbones. I personally like that you told the Toyark community about her first, maybe that Bubba dude will buy it?

I'd say it's worth nothing. Might as well pass it my way

In all seriousness though, I think it's odd how rare the figure is. But that's probably just me not being a Cassandra Cain fan. I haven't seen any reviews or anything, but I'm pretty sure the figure isn't even that great.

hrothgars · 07-25-2012, 03:20 PM

I can't believe there is still a Kmart somewhere that carries figures from DCSH Series 7 (originally released in 2007)!

M3T4L V1KING · 07-25-2012, 03:36 PM

No kidding. It must of been lost in the back for God knows how long. Even then, out of all the figures they could have misplaced, what are the odds of it being Cassandra Cain? That's pretty amazing.

BigHanksCustoms · 07-25-2012, 03:40 PM

Probably an employee stash that got left behind and uncovered by new employees. I applaud your great luck! Kudos!

KingLouie731 · 07-25-2012, 04:20 PM

yeah it probably got kicked under a shelf unit or something hence the sticky stuff which is probably spilt soda or floor wax residue or the like

M3T4L V1KING · 07-25-2012, 04:21 PM

Floor wax residue sounds like the most likely suspect. Too bad the figure has no MOC value... Still valuable as a loose figure though

FrankCastle · 07-25-2012, 05:25 PM

I am going to try the denatured alcohol trick big hank recommended. Residue is only on the plastic so I think the moc value is safe

ToyAddict · 07-25-2012, 05:38 PM

If denatured alcohol doesn't work, spray WD-40 on a paper towel or cloth and wipe it across the leftover residue. It'll get the sticky off, but it does leave the plastic feeling a little greasy if you don't wipe it off REALLY well.

You probably ought not spray WD-40 directly on the product.

FrankCastle · 07-25-2012, 05:54 PM

I have some goo gone but this stuff is thick. I think it is floor wax.

DogFashionDisco · 07-25-2012, 06:59 PM

Another DCUC Black Mask is up on eBay. What is the most you guys would pay for this dude, sans accessories?

DC Universe Signature Collection Club Infinite Earths Black Mask Loose | eBay

FancyPants · 07-25-2012, 07:02 PM

What does sans accessories mean? Without?

I paid 32 and change. I'd have gone higher only because I want him badly. Somebody brought it to my attention figures and the stuff they come with are made in two separate places. Explains why loose guys on ebay have nothing. Normal I wouldn't have a problem, but Ivy doesn't even have her vines. The vines make the damn figure

I don't even think I want ivy if I cant get her vines. I could have cared less about black masks stuff though. I mean the art of him in Arkham Asylum shows him holding a gun. I could just give him a pistol from a ML figure or something. One of Nick Furys pistols would be good since they're like two toned. Silver on the slide and black on the rest of the gun.

Barefootabe · 07-25-2012, 07:03 PM

man i wish i still had my crossbones..id trade for that batgirl in a heartbeat

DogFashionDisco · 07-25-2012, 07:07 PM

Yeah, means without. I kind of want one too, and I figure if I can find Black Mask and Clayface, my collection will basically be complete.

M3T4L V1KING · 07-25-2012, 07:09 PM

I'd only want Black Mask with his accessories. They're too damn cool for me to get him without them.

P.S DFD, has Azrael fallen over and killed your collection yet? Or is that little black base doing a good job?

DogFashionDisco · 07-25-2012, 07:26 PM

He fell backward once, so I used a shit ton of Quake Hold on his feet. No issues. That stuff is awesome. Thanks again for the Azrael hook up, he is one of my favorite figures now.

Good to see that Azrael went to a good home, and that he hasn't destroyed the shelf.

Now my friends, I need some opinions if you'd be so kind as to give them. As I mentioned in a previous post, I saw the Dark Knight Rises, loved it, and now want a movie masters Bane and Batman. It's just a matter of which ones. The single carded Bane is missing the arm swivel, but still looks great nonetheless. The single carded Batman is... Batman, looks like Batman, has decent articulation, nothing special or out of the ordinary. The two pack bane comes without his jacket (I would have liked the vest, but it's still cool) and has that arm swivel, and interchangeable hands (which is freaking awesome!). Two pack Batman comes with a soft cloth cape. A. Cloth. Cape. That is awesome too! But it's battle damage... I'm not a fan of battle damage, and I wouldn't want my only Batman to be battle damage.

So my friends, based on what I describe, which ones should I snag?

kenm2474 · 07-25-2012, 07:43 PM

Finally on Monday my 2 biggest awaited Figures for my Batman Collection arrive. Croc and Freeze. I told you guys I would be the First to be the last. Next is Alfred.

DogFashionDisco · 07-25-2012, 07:46 PM

I like the single carded Bane more, but I gave mine up because he was too short. If I can find someone to fix one up for me down the road, I'll rebuy it.

I should also mention that the two pack Bane also looks a little fat. But I may be the only one who thinks that.

SwindlesShop · 07-25-2012, 07:56 PM

I'm happy with my DC Direct Cassandra Cain Batgirl that my LCS sells for 6 bucks each

Got Ra's Al Ghul movie masters in the mail today! The likeness of Neeson is off, but the mask he comes with makes up for that.
