These are additions to my collection that I have made over the past few months. I have a several others that I have purchased but I didn't feel like digging out of boxes to take pictures lol. I'm pretty excited about these pick ups!  I got very good prices on the Natural Disasters. I can't remember off the top of my head, but they were below normal/average. There was some sticker residue on Typhoons forehead which I thought I could remove, and I wound up making worse. I guess I will be replacing this one in the near future, haha.  I love the butterfly hooks for some reason.  I have almost completed the Green Series. I have them all now minus Yokozuna.   Noticeable crease on the corner of Billy, but otherwise clean card.  I have some questions about the backs of these. Now I know this isn't anything crazy, but just curious as to why some of these cards have stickers, and some don't?   Same here   |

No collection complete without the Nature Boy lol     I feel like Koko B. Ware is very hard to find on an English card these days, and when you do it is rather expensive. Glad I have finally gotten him.  Not a great picture, but finally I got my Akeem. (Also have a Bi-Lingual Akeem coming soon)  The prize of my pickups lately I thought was going to be a No Name Sgt. Slaughter, but that was quickly spoiled lol. I had to settle for this figure instead, and I can't complain.  I also picked up the Korean Hogan/Warrior 2 pack. I saw it was originally advertised at 15k which was crazy, but then picked a set up much cheaper. The artwork on it is what grabbed my attention. I'm anxious to get it and share. |

The Green cards with the sticker on the back were released outside the US. I have ones I got from Australia and they all have this sticker.

you're also missing 1-2-3 Kid from the Green Card series, but that is nice collection regardless

Danger10 fixedorbust I already have 1-2-3 Kid & Adam Bomb in my collection. These were just recent purchases. The 1-2-3 Kid was actually one of the 1st Hasbro MOC I ever bought. It is near perfect mint.

Thanks guys! I am going to have to slow down now. I have been buying way too many here of late. For the most part though I have all of the rarer figures or expensive ones. I have roughly 30 (whole dark blue series) to go and the Mailaways. demolition1990 when I buy MOC I usually try to get the best card I can find. I don't buy any with stickers on them unless they are in really good condition and dirt cheap. I guess that is another reason why I spend so much for some of these. Most of the figures I have are in very good MOC condition and all are on English cards. I recently sold my Demolition 2 pack that had some tears on it and upgraded for one that was in ideal condition. The funny thing is I sold mine on eBay for more than the better version I paid for. Go figure there, lol. |

Lots of great figures in there. Aside from the greens, Skinner, and Steamboat, I remember buying them all upon release as a kid. Ah, memories.

I totally agree with you there.
The few MOCs I have are in proper Mint condition with no price labels on etc. and that is the way I wanna keep it until it is all complete.
Soon as Cheltenham Festival is over the MOC buying will begin once again for me.
