My best friend was a hardcore Legends collector. His family had a house on Long Beach Island, where they lived year round. It was destroyed when Hurricane Sandy hit and he lost all of his figures to the storm. Rebuilding his collection was just too costly, so he never tired to back track. He's been trying to get back into collecting since then, but is missing many characters that he once had. On top of that, after the hurricane, his parents divorced and he was living with me for a year (which is another long story). He's living with his Dad now, but he has to pay rent and help with the bills. So trying to collect new figures is proving to be tough.
He would never come out and say something like this, and he might even be mad that I shared his story, but I wanted to get it out there. Quite honestly, I was going to try to find another set and give it to him for Christmas.

Wow, with that story your friend would probably end up winning the contest in my opinion. Unfortunately, I have to stick by the rules I made for this contest. If I would allow this then some scalpers would probably become Toyark members just to get a shot at this and that's what I don't want. Thank you for your honesty though and for sharing that story with us.
