I Wish! someone on the bay was selling an unopened bag for something like 2k??? a tad steep for a commoner like myself...

[freddie poe]

there it is!

[RPM]

It sold for $999

[horrorhunter]

Holy Crap! Thanks for posting that pic, RPM. $999!! I wonder how many of those unopened bags still exist.

I'll bet a clumsy butcher can count them on one hand!

Here is another finished auction for one of the green Mexican PlastiMarx Creatures. This one went for a more reasonable $28.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Marx-Creature-From-The-Black-Lagoon-Bright-Green-/291192764770?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=fTI0k%252Fq1kOrFL%252B6K1JaY%252BTMS%252FrY%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

And the seller listed it incorrectly as a vintage Marx Creature and one of the original colors- green. So much misinformation.

Did you tell the schmuck he didn't know, and more probably didn't care, what he was talking about?

Nah, I'm minding my own business. There are so many evilBay errors/lies that one person could spend nearly all of their time trying to correct them and not make a dent. If a given falsehood is an honest mistake then let 'em do their own research, and if it's spin to try to sell something they will just ignore the truth anyway.

I'm glad someone got it at a realistic price. It's a nice piece.

Gentlemen, I just wanted to say that I've had a lovely 3 days of reading this thread.  I took some of your info and posted it over on Vintage Monster Toys' Facebook Page, and I think you'll be pleased to see that I sited everyone whose information or providing-info pics, I used.

It's a great thread.  I'm only sorry that I wasn't signed in until just now, so that I could "like" all the kind and generous comments I saw.

*Really* a lovely community, you have here.  I hope to add something to the discourse, some day.

My very best.

WELCOME NEW MEMBER!

The UMA is a great place to hang out - or even lurk.

Ah, fresh blood.

[freddie poe]

if you check that auction for the vile green  mexi creature??? you will notice that he does not show you both circles.... only the Marx logo which was still sometimes used on the mexi marx figures....

Are you also interested in MPC Pop-Tops and Palmer figures? There are several good threads dealing with each on this forum as well.
