I wish I could say it was me as I need one too, but I was 3 days too late for when it sold. It was a UK buyer.
It just bothers me that it went unsold 3X before that and I had not been checking UK listings.

Is it a rare figure or anything? I bought one at a Thrift Store over a month ago for $4. Sorry though, it's not for sale

If it tells you anything, I have seen it on Ebay once (this time) and once on a Japanese site over the past three years.
Was yours MOC also? if so $15 was bad enough, but $4 really crushes my cookies.

Mine was loose. Was trying to do research on it when I first got it, but could not find anything.

Most of the sites that mention the figures have been taken down. There was one on unreleased figure too, but it is gone too, sadly.

Thanks for that. In that case, mine is the one in the eBay link. He's in red.

Well, that makes three that are out there. I'm sure the rest must be locked in a warehouse somewhere collecting dust.
I have the other two, so the Bagwell would have rounded out the set if I only seen the Ebay one earlier than the eventual buyer.

Well, nit exactly plenty, but I once saw an auction where the seller had multiple of all three in the set (plus many other toybiz) but shipping was from Japan which made the lot very expensive to ship. It sold for not very much money. This was a at least seven years ago. I've always had a feeling that when they surfaced it would be in the uk. |

Toybiz had some strange reason that they released several things that were similar, but not entirely the same. There were buddy like figures that were 22" tall that spoke, 22" figures that did not speak that were the same and 8" figures that spoke, key chains that spoke and did not speak with the difference that the figure was in a "ring" that house the voice box and two different types of bop bags of figures. They especially liked variants with figures released with different colored fringe, repaints within the same subset, different colors on the packaging and things like that. It is tough being a Toybiz collector. |

I would have had to bear the expense to get them if I had been collecting back then. |

Those figures bring back some memories.
