I found this lot at a yard sale on Friday afternoon. I collect LJN's so all i needed really was Hogans belt. I asked the guy if he would sell just the belt. Figuring he might want more than I wanted to spend on everything else. He said nope just selling them all as a lot. I walked away. I know nothing about Mattel figures or their prices. 1 of a 1000 caught my eye however. Curiosity got the best of me so I asked how much for the lot. He said 7 bucks So yeah i bought it lol. I have a question though. Is the 1 of 1000 Austin worth anything? It's a high number, 780 if I remember right. Can you guys put a number on it. Maybe i can trade it for some LJN's I need. Any answers would be awesome from you guys. I'm asking the experts.

Yep $7. Just a tiny town in Kansas prices i guess. I didn't even think about it until I returned home that it was a good deal.

Damn. Seven dollars is a price I'd have a hard time believing. That's crazy. It's like the guy's giving it for free.

I was going to say, isn't it worth a decent amount because of the 1 of 1000 and then its also a high number so it has the collectors guide? Regardless, nice pick up because you just got a Mattel figure for $3 off and then the rest of it for free. I am willing to bet you could find someone who will trade for that. Worse case scenario, throw it on Ebay for .99 and see where you end up. I promise you will make your $7 back.

very good find, most 1/1000's are sold for $20 and up, not totally sure on Austin but you should easily make your money back or get a decent amount of figures

nice. i'd offer to trade my (only LJN) Capt. Lou Albano for that Austin - but somehow i don't think it's worth it -- for you that is. nice grabs!
