It’s not just Deadpool figures, there has been a rash of (first) Red Hulks and (more recently) Hulks from the ML Valkyrie/Hulk two-packs showing up on eBay as well. I have both of the Hulks in question, but I almost bought a Red Hulk for the “buy now” price of $40. I considered the purchase as a potential resale investment. I didn’t follow through with the purchase before it was snatched up by someone else, but it made me research whether the Red Hulk I already owned (which was purchased on eBay) was also a KO. I watched an AdvocatePinoy video (I think it was your video – I believe I have seen you post on here so pardon the shout out) and learned you can tell the difference between KO and the real deal from the lack of detail on the button and zipper of the Hulk’s jeans and something about the bottom of the foot.

I’m actually glad that I didn’t buy the Red Hulk KO then resell it to someone else. I guess if I had posted a listing stating that I suspected it to be a KO then that might be ok, but to purposely hoodwink someone would be smarmy at the least. However, this whole issue brings up an interesting thought about eBay. These KO’s could potentially devalue some of the inflated prices of these ML figures. Is Deadpool really worth $100 plus? Or Red Hulk or Hulk for that matter? I guess there is a market for the prices we see online; a “whatever the market will bear” sense of things. Considering that I own many of these figures (not Deadpool ironically), I suppose its nice to see that they have value. But I can’t tell you how many times I have looked at something like this new ML movie Black Widow, ML Kree Soldier, ML hand ninja, or ML Nick/Dum Dum Dugan/Shield Agent and scoffed at the $50 price-tag.

Maybe KO’s could work in the favor of some of us as collectors. I have to admit that I sort of wish the KO’s makers could get their hands on the mold for that Bi-beast Hasbro never released. I’d buy that for a dollar!! Or forty dollars…or maybe forty-five!
