  I found a Hall of Fame Hogan today at my local used book store. They don’t usually carry wrestling figures, or many toys at all actually (I’ve seen some old NASCAR figures and some old Looney Tunes figures in there before, but not much else). Best part is it was marked at only $15.00!! They also had the elite Ultimate Warrior with the muscly looking singlet for $20. (Elite 26?) But I never cared for that figure so didn’t grab it. I had $25 in trade credit that I needed to use so I picked up the Hogan and a Spider-Man/Wolverine team-up and didn’t have to pay a dime out of pocket. Whats the best deal on a figure that you’ve found at a random place? Not a retailer like Target or TRU or even Ollie’s, but like a bookstore/thriftstore/yard sale/etc.? |

Found the old LJN Andre with short hair and black attire at a flea market for $2 back in early May. A guy selling TONS of toys scattered all over a row of tables. He also had a regular Andre with the long hair, Iron Sheik, Big John Studd, Bundy, Snuka, Junkyard Dog, and half of the Hart Foundation Jim Neidhart (he came with Hogans old belt).
All were used, some in crap condition (Sheik and Snuka) some in near mint condition (Bundy, JYD, and Neidhart were all NM). Studd and Andre were average condition. Both had some paint worn off in places, unfortunately the Andre had a few scuff marks that I couldnt get off. Still though, got em all for $10. Cant beat that no matter the condition! The Anvil alone was pretty MINT and paid for them all 5x over.
Oh, and he said he had "a lot more at home" that he would bring the following weekend. I never did make it, but I've been wondering what else he had. Imagine if he brought Ultimate Warrior, Haku, Warlord, or a Red or White Hogan, lol.

I've been pricing them on ebay for the past week or so. Waiting for the right price. |

Really hoping for a repaint of this, E16 Nash, and a re-release of E51 Hall with a new head for a BATB96 Epic Moments.

That's really good deal on that figure. I've got 3 of them that I picked up at various Targets. Those were on the shelves forever around my area and I figured I'd keep snapping them up because the head mold was so good and I knew there was no Hollywood coming anymore, so I figured I might need an extra one some day.

The best deal I've ever found on a figure was a loose, near mint Hasbro 123 Kid at a flea market for $1 a few years ago.
