I've been kinda-sorta trying to complete the Blob BAF, and thus far I've got 3/8 of the figure (head, upper torso, left arm). But I'm actually losing interest for a number of reasons:

- The figure is gonna be pretty big, and right now space is a bit of an issue
- The sculpt, while impressive, is also a bit... gross
- I'm not as interested in Blob as a character, as I am in having whatever X-villains I can get
- The prices for his remaining parts are pretty ridiculous (I'm actually watching an auction for X3 Juggernaut just so I can get the hands for under $50)

So I gotta ask you guys, given these reasons, would it be a better use of my time to try and sell/trade the pieces I do have? Or is there enough to like about the figure that I should keep going? Again, with the prices being what they are, it's also making me wonder if I should just put it off until we're in a better state (financially and space-wise), and just try to buy the completed figure. It doesn't seem like it would be much more expensive than trying to complete him.



I figured they'd save them for SDCC reveals.

Bottom line is if you aren't interested in the character why buy it? I personally love the hell out of that figure and I think most ML collectors do also which is why some of the parts are hard to find. Good news is the arms are almost interchangeable, you can hardly tell if you have a right or a left. The lower torso is kinda hard to find also but the hands are def the worst part to find. Legs should be super easy.

He's a keeper for me, I'll never sell him, cause I doubt they will ever make another. Plus the Brotherhood just wouldn't look the same without Blob in the back.
