What is your most cherished figure that took the longest to find, or you are still looking for?

I don't really have a "Holy Grail" as such, I'm usually able to find any figure I want.

Hmm...I also have most of the figures I want.
Some of the ones that I have, that were hard to get:
POTF Zuckus figure
CIII Darth Vader exclusive (people waited in line for over 8 hours to get that figure)
Ken Griffey Jr. Mariners Chase
Hologram Darth Sidious and Sio Bibble
Any Michael Vick figure (try finding one in Atlanta that isn't being scalped for triple the retail price)
Some of the ones I still want:
Babylon 5 Shadow Sentient
Michael Vick series 4 black uniform
Actually, that's all I can think of at the moment

NFL5 Snow Brady. I almost bought it when it was going for $100. Last time I looked, it was going for $250+ on eBay  |

I honestly I don't think I could own a piece worth $200+ without wanting to sell it for a profit.

Probably my ML6 Deadpool. It's a pretty rare figure, but I cherish it because it's so amazing. Definitely the best figure I own.

Probably Superman the Animated Series Darkseid. Made in like 1995, only shipped to US like for 2 months. I never found it in stores, but went on ebay. In 2003 after searching for like 8 years, I got it. Cost me $54.00 shipped, but is worth it. Pretty rare if you ask me.  there he is!!  |

Deadpool. I haven't even sniffed him yet.
Hawkeye and Blade were also extremely hard to find, and I think I just got lucky with them.

Eli/Peyton boxset
MLB 11 Mike Piazza
I also forgot to add NHL Legends 2 Mike Bossy. I ordered him on Amazon the other day. I have been looking for him forever and I never found it so I just ordered it online.

I haven't ever really had a Holy Grail, but here's the toys I had the most fun getting:
LEGO Star Wars Millenium Falcon & AT-AT: Enormous toys that were a lot of fun to make even though they're designed for kids half my age. The AT-AT took me like 4 hours to put together!
AT-AT: Also enormous. Got it on clearance for like $20.
18" Spider-Man: Whodathunkit? This one's enormous, too! And freakin' poseable! I currently have 5.
Electronic FX Sting Sword: It's a replica with a metal hilt and a blue-glowing blade (for when orcs are about). Retails for $100, I got it on clearance for $15. Also somewhat enormous (28").

Mine vary because I tend to find them.
Recently it was the Australian exclusive Mattel Bane and Scarecrow figures.
I also cherish my Abomination and Absorbing Man figures. Absorbing Man is definitely the better of the two.
My current "white whales" (as I call them) are:
Dead or Alive Kasumi figure
ML Dark Phoenix
DBGT Nova Shenron
DBGT Omega Shenron
DBGT Majuub

Once I get that new Slash figure from McFarlane then I will consider that my "holy grail".
