Yeah, I feel pretty lucky. The place that I found him at is a used book/record/tape trader type store (similar to Hastings) where what they carry is whatever people bring in to sell to them. I usually never go there looking for figs, but my GF happened to be there earlier in the day, and kinda innocently asked me if I had it. Of course it led to a rather mad dash to get there!

My guess is that someone was dumping off their collection and didn't want to be bothered with Craigslist or Ebay, as there were also several of the larger Arkham City figures (Grundy and Croc) as well as FF Spidey and Emma Frost in a glass case with higher dollar figures. (FF Spidey was $30, while Emma was $40, with Wolvie, Cyclops and Sabertooth in the 10 to 15 dollar range.) I feel pretty bad that someone probably got little to nothing for them (since these trader type stores don't usually barter well) but I'm grateful nevertheless!

Emma was one of those figures that I needed to see in person in order to commit to getting her, but I really didn't like the paint apps, especially on her face. She had a really bad lazy eye that kinda reminded me of the Toxic Crusader for some reason. I really wish that Hasbro would have given us the Rogue running change, because I would have bought her (and probably the Puck BAF set) in a heartbeat.
