Really want an elite Mankind, but I can't find the amazon exclusive or the E17 for less than $50.
Should I just bite the bullet and get one, or do we think there will be another elite Mankind released soon-ish?

The basic is a decent figure but if you're set on getting an elite then you should grab it now. Foley isn't currently signed to a deal and doesn't seemed that motivated to sign one anytime soon. If he does sign, we've gotten 3 Mankinds already so likely will get other personas before another Mankind. Cancelled HOF3 Cactus would be the next figure they put out, Dude Love you would think after that, Commissioner Foley or WM2000 Mick Foley probably will get made before another Mankind as well.

Amazon ones sell for less than $50, more like $35. Great figure too. Even if he resigns soon (he probably will) it will be MONTHS before they release him and even so it will probably be the Cactus.

If you can get e17 mankind for $50 Moc then I would say buy that asap. The b45 mankind is also an option.
I wouldn't sell mine for less than $150
How much does the Amazon mankind sell for?

You should have a comma after Commissioner Foley. I find it soooooooo annoying when people don't know the rules for items in a series. Basic grammar. OP... A figure is only as valuable as you think it is. I personally wouldn't pay more than $35.00 for either of those (with shipping). Really hope that this is sarcasm.... Oxford commas are not neccessary |

Oxford commas are not neccessary That's not true. Especially in this case. Without a comma before the conjunction, one could confuse Commissioner Foley as being synonymous with WM 2000 Foley. But no need to worry. It's tongue in cheek. This guy has been all over my d*** about semantics/spelling. And I really hope you're not about to join that club. Never mind the fact that you didn't even end your sentence with any punctuation, but you also misspelled necessary. It blows my mind that of all the things people could be worried about on this forum, spelling is the big concern as of late... As if this is some majorly formal medium for communication. It's a toy forum. And I've seen MUCH worse offenses in the writing department here. So seriously, let it go. You're free to decimate the English language all you want. Forgive me OP for hijacking this thread in favor of asininity. Go for those figures. They're both fantastic! |

I'm also thinking of getting another Elite 17 Mankind. The figure looks great MOC, I kinda want one to have loose.

Forgive me OP for hijacking this thread in favor of asininity. Go for those figures. They're both fantastic! I made one comment like a week ago correcting the spelling of Wolfpac and was very self aware and apologetic in doing so. How that is being all over you D, I don't know. Sorry that it scarred you so bad you felt it necessary to troll me a week later. That being said, I meant for WM2000 and Commissioner Foley to be synonymous in that I was implying that in addition to another Cactus Jack and a Dude Love we're probably getting 1 Mick Foley before another Mankind and it will likely be Commissioner or WM2000. |

Both Elite Mankinds are top notch Flashbacks, both are must haves more so than RSC cactus jack.

I would say that it's best buying it. I've done that with so many figures recently.
Last week, I spent about £50 for an MOC Elite 8 Edge. 4 years ago, I bought the exact same figure for £25. My older Edge kind of deteriorated after being left in storage boxes with minor paint loss. I'll try not to make the same mistake.
With Mankind, I've seen customisers actually go a different route by making a hybrid between the Amazon Exclusive and Basic 45. It gives you that KOTR 1998 look.
Elite 17 Micker is a gem whether it's MOC or not. However, that classic packaging gives it much more value.

I actually had my mankind up for sale for 50 dollars. Nobody had bought it in 15 days so I took it down. I took it as a sign that I shouldn't sell it because it's too rare.

I bought the basic series Mankind and it's great, I know a lot of people criticise it but I think it's great, the only benefit with the Elite is Mr.Socko. I'm pretty sure the white basic is really cheap and if your lucky you may find it at retail.
