Took a punt on an Amazon listing for a 1/3000 USA Sgt Slaughter. It was 34.99 which was cheaper than the one on my eBay watch list so I went for it. Arrived today in the dreaded amazon sleeve, but thankfully the figure was mint!

Amazon strikes again for me (in a good way)! I remember when the Sunny 1/3000's were cheap as chips, but none on eBay UK (and there's been none going back to February according to the completed listings) and the two that are listed in America have bids in at $30 a pop and then add on the shipping and import tax. But, a private seller on Amazon had one listed at £44.99 so I went for it. Goes with my 1/100 and it gets ticked off the list.

I'm jealous lol.

I'm doing the opposite and only collecting series 1-28 classic superstars. No exclusives or multi packs. I don't envy You, this is hard enough to complete.

I’m loving collecting these, it’s such a rush to be deal hunting and trying to find some of them since most are either ultra expensive, or disappeared from the face of the earth! Well, that’s what it feels like. I’m trying to be patient, I know a lot of them are very pricey but if you look hard enough you find good deals! I thought of going for double and triple packs, but I’m going for the singles first. That’s years off, maybe one day.

Found a listing for a 1/3000 Cactus Jack on eBay UK randomly at £80. A lot cheaper than getting it from America, only problem was its signed in black sharpie by Mick Foley. I don't want the signature on it, so I offered £60 and it got accepted. I'll take the auto off with nail polish remover when it arrives.

One of my most wanted figures, and I have no idea why, was purchased this morning. I was watching a listing for a signed 1/5000 Hillbilly Jim on eBay U.S for the past week and it finished at 5am today. The price was only 19.99 with no bids so I stuck a bid in last night and won it for $19.99. Annoying thing was postage and customs cost me more than the blooming figure! But I'm happy with that. That's the Cactus Jack and Hillbilly Jim off my list and it only leaves the Boxing 1/100 Roddy Piper in my top 3 most wanted.

Found a listing with the "make offer" option on a 1/3000 Undertaker. It was listed at £99.99. I made two offers that got declined instantly so I gave the seller a message and we worked out a deal. An expensive figure, but happy to get it. Goes with the 1/100.
Good thing is, every figure I've bought so far I've been able to sell my older stuff to buy. I know I've bought a lot lately but I've only dipped into my own pocket once!!

Got up at 5am to bid on a 1/3000 Edge from America. It had a "buy it now" but I decided to try my luck bidding and I ended up getting it cheaper. Can't complain I guess, just means an early morning win!

Picked up a Star Wars Black Series Darth Maul from Entertainer for £5.50. I bought him when he first popped up there a few months ago for £22 but since he has a swappable head I'll be able to display both looks now.
