my KB had the Smoking Gunns for what felt like forever. I kept passing on them because there were other figures I wanted and I didn't like that their outfits didn't match. Kinda makes me feel silly now, that I bought The Steiner Brothers, Tatanka, and the tan Bushwhackers over the Gunns

thats the thing though, when your a kid buying figures is 100% about picking and playing with your favourite stars, not about whos going to be rare and worth coins in the future.
When i was younger i had the choice out of a blk/red or purple Razor and also white or black shawn. I ended up picking the more common of the figs due to being able to relate with their costumes more.
Those days were much better.

I use to look with my parents at 2 different KB Toys, a Toy Works, 2 different boscovs, 2 different Hills, and sometimes got to a Toys R Us to get the hasbros but I never seen one green card on a shelf. I knew when they came out and all but no one had them. I only got Yoko and Adam Bomb around 1995 when I seen a guy with a stand in my local mall and paid $20 each for them MOC.

hi, i remember that here in germany toysrus had tonns of green card figures. each fig was for 5 euros maybe 7,50 dollars. i saw maybe 25 - 123 kids... i only bought 1 from each figure of this series, cause i was young and 5 euros was a lot of money....

I don't think they ever made it to the UK, I definately didn't see them anywhere, and don't think that they even made it into the Argos book

It sucks with hasbros, I had almost all of them but then around my area the last 2 sets never showed up. I was really bummed because I always wanted the 123 Kid but I could never find him. And now its gonna cost me an arm and a leg

And now its gonna cost me an arm and a leg same here, it sucks to realize you have 90% of the collection and it's the ones you don't have are the rare/valuable ones. prices have been better lately though. |
