With the Netflix shows going strong, and a Sandman BAF already in the works, I never pursued or felt a need to aggressively pursue Purple Man or Sandman aggressively because surely we would get them in a standard wave at some point right?

Fast forward a few years, all the Netflix shows are gone, and the prices on Purple Man have skyrocketed into the 40-60 dollar range, with Sandman actually hitting close to 30-40 as well. I could have grabbed both of them for about 30 bucks two years ago as Purple Man was still averaging about 20 bucks and people were practically giving away their Sandman figures once that BAF dropped. Yet somehow, they've jumped up into a price range I'm no longer comfortable with, especially Purple Man, who I just don't feel is worth dropping 60 dollars on essentially a purple tinted suited body.

I just so happen to have an extra raft set sitting in my bin of legends i'm looking to sell/trade. Only thing missing is spideys head(now on my ps4 spidey) & dreadknights belt(now on green goblin)
