I know this is going to be an odd post but I am curious as to what the best deal you ever go on action figure(s)?

I picked up the Wonder Twin Comic Con figures just after Christmas for $69.00 and Gleek for $18.00. Normally these three together are pricing at like $246.00 I paid about $100.00 and it was very sweet. Thank you Amazon.com and Ebay

I think the best deal I ever got was some water damaged Lego's at Woolworths (RIP), got 7662 - MTT for 99p and 7654 - Droids Battle Pack for 49p. Contents inside were perfect, was only the boxes that were effected.

Other than that it's just a Boss Phaser guitar pedal I got for £20 instead of the going rate at the time of £115.

Paid $100 and trades for a hot toys Mark 3 battle Damaged Iron Man figure, ended up selling it to a fellow arker for a good price, but what I paid and he paid were well under the ebay prices.

Got a ML Mcfarlane Black/Red figure for $30 normally goes for $80 loose. I try to trade when I can, and have come into awesome figures that way, everything from Hulkbuster Iron man, to faceoff captain america, black widow, sdcc thor, I'm working on a deal right now for mcfarlane red/blue spidey and giantman baf for $200 shipped, considering loose spidey is $120+ and giantman is normally in the $120-200 range, It'll be a nice deal when I'm done.

this is a good question....lets see
in terms of MU ive paid less than 12-15 dollars each for:
mary jane
dark ms. marvel
ms. marvel
blade
winter soldier long haired
metal absorbing man

theres plenty more. in fact, the most i've ever paid for a single figure is 17. and that was for SHS Thor.

Ebay or yardsale? lol

Both are awesome ways to find some rare figures...

Speaking of which... I should of mentioned this. I was at a local fleamarket 2-3 weeks ago and found 3/4 Movie Star TMNT figures loose but in out of the box condition, bandanas intact, no weapons, but honestly not a big deal, paid $8/3 they go for $25-50 a figure loose made my week, I stumbled upon a few other old rare toy cars. I bought them just because they said made in england or Russia, Germany instead of the normal made in China some worth only a couple bucks, but some I can't find listed, and know they're worth more then what I paid. should post pics, I know there's some toy collectors on here.

USS Flagg, Terror Drome, Defiant, Sky Raven, and a slew of others I can't remember right now for $150.

I have many others, because I love yard sales and flea markets, but it's late and I can't think right now.

Let's see... Well, one of my best ones was $40 for the Marvel Legends Face-off Iron man vs Mandarin pack. I know Behindthemask was jealous of that one

I'd say this time when I was a poor kid and wanted the ATAT so bad but my mom couldn't afford it.
Until one day we just happened to find one with a wrong price tag, it was 1/3 of the true price. It was October but my mom bought it right away and it sat on top of a shelf until Christmas. Seeing it every day was hard, though.

25ish years later, I work for the French publisher of Star Wars novels and got an ATTE for free from Hasbro.
Must be gifted for big legged SW merchandise...?

Back in the day I got MP Prime (20th version) for $20 because he would scan and when the buy checked the shelf that is what he thought the price must have been. I also got the newest MP prime for $70 on sale.

I remember Symbiote got the Future Foundation MU 3-pack for $7 at SDCC because the guy had left the price tag on it from whatever store he bought it from.

Dunno if it's the best but one of my most memorable was getting ML series 1 Iron Man from Target when ML Series 1 was still on the shelves at most stores.

My actual best deal is probably $70 shipped from ebay I got G1 Shockwave, Soundwave, Jetfire and Metroplex. Metroplex was missing the most stuff and the other three were complete or close to it.
