Please please do something funny with those hobo's though. Using lots of hobo's somewhere in a picture or story will likely be very hillarious.  :lol:

That hobo (how un-PC :P) comes with a very distinctive collar - brown if Im not mistaken - doesnt he? I bet it's a pain to find one of those, if you're a completist like me?

Thats why we call them "bums" around here  ;) It can be a pain to find any part of that bum in the US, or at least for a reasonable price. If you look at auction history you can see how expensive they can get  8}

There's certain rare-ish figures that sometimes come half-complete and you think 'ill buy that and complete him later' but it never works - there are some parts that are just too rare. like the yellow feather from the highwayman. half of those 3633s you see on ebay don't have the correct  feather - and they still go for a lot of money. Funnily enough i thought of you yesterday ras - i was browsing a masters of the universe forum and a good 90 % of the (US) members were moaning about the price of the figures - that made me think of you  :P

wow! is this from the auction of the vietnam vet's collection from that live auction company? i didn't bid on any of that but was very curious. i really was shocked that the lots didn't go higher. i thought perhaps the photos didn't do the collection justice and maybe the war vet component of their marketing hurt rather than helped the sale. that said, i feel like there was at least 1 lot that seemed to be misrepresented. can't remember now which. congratulations!

Awesome lot of figures! I lost the yellow flower from my hobo's hat in about 2 weeks after purchase (I was young  :))
