I think I might get back into collecting Jakks figures. I picked up a pretty sweet RA Evan Bourne yesterday for a good price. Looks incredible with the E8's shirt on it. I also got a DA Bobby Lashley but I'll have to do a bit of part swapping as it was kinda beat up. I haven't looked at my Jakks figures in about 3 years. I had a rule of one figure per person, unless their look had a drastic change, and I have almost everyone they ever made. Was actually considering selling them to help fund some of the rarer Mattel figures, but I just know when it comes to it, I wouldn't be able to part with them. Lol I'm the same man, I spent my entire childhood collecting Classic Superstars and even though I have better articulated Mattel versions of some of the figures, I'd never be able to part with them haha. Also, if anyone could help me identify the Bourne figure, that'd be awesome. Here's a pic, apologies for the quality haha.

I just recently started collecting classic figs again after many years and here's what I picked up...
I'm looking forward to getting more legend figs as Jakks made some great ones back in the day. |

The Brain That Slaughter was one of my favourite Jakks figures back in the day. Just sucks that the hat wasn't removable.

p]I'm looking forward to getting more legend figs as Jakks made some great ones back in the day. [/p][/quote] What I appreciated the most about the CS line was the depth it went into. I love what Mattel has done so far, but I have strong doubts that we're going to get deep enough to get things like the Midnight Express, Jimmy Valiant, or Killer Kowalski for instance. |

Sorry to kinda go off-topic, but what would be considered a "good deal" for the following figures nowadays (Loose w/ accessories and MOC, for that matter...)?:
Jerry Lawler & Andy Kaufman 2-pack (I don't recall what exactly it is called, but I've seen it for as low as $19, and as high as $35-$40 MOC...loose, I don't recall, as they're usually sold individually or parted and not with the stretcher etc. but for everything loose I am curious what a good deal or market value is for say, the Bay?)
The single Andy Kaufman figure (I don't know what line that is from either... I believe it's from the Classic Superstars...,maybe series 20ish? Around there. I have no idea about the two-pack anymore (I forget completely).
Sorry this is vague--I'll try to find photos or look up the exact line(s) for the first set, and the Kaufman figure. I am like 99% sure the singular figure is from their Classic Superstars line...just not sure which one exact and my wifi is terrible right now (and generally all the time it seems).
I've been wanting to add these (well, mainly an Andy, so I guess if the latter is less expensive MOC, I'd be interested in adding one of those to keep MOC and buying a 2-pack loose, as I want a Kaufman for custom reasons as well... but I don't know what a good price is and not many are on eBay at once. I've checked completed listings and it varies. I'm just curious, because a long time ago they were trending pretty cheap if you found the right seller... maybe a little box damage, or it would be missing the stretcher or something random, but you could get both figures for $15-20 at one point it feels like...I just never bit as I was completely out of the game when it came to collecting. I'll buy a figure once in a blue moon now, and really want to add these.
thanks in advance!

Found these at a local flea market. $15 each. I don't collect the line, so I'm unsure if this is a good deal. Any help would be appreciated.  |

Any help would be appreciated. 15 bucks for the classic Jakks series is a good price IMO as usually they go for 30 and over especially for the hard to find ones. Put it this way if you can get em for 20 and under you're getting a good deal. Good pickups btw. |

I haven't bought them yet because I wasn't sure if it was a good deal, though I had a feeling it was. I might pick them up and put them up on the Classifieds here or the Bay so a Jakks collector can enjoy them. They look really cool in person, I'm just more of a Hasbro collector. |

If I had to pick one of those three I'd have to go with Taker since I've seen that figure go for like 50 and up in the past. It's a Deluxe edition also so that may add to it.
When I bought the Mr. Perfect figure I got it for like 14 bucks when I've seen it at like 40 elsewhere so I was real lucky on that purchase.
