    Changed this thread title because I figured out what I needed to about the Akro. Anyone have info on the middle mutant head. The black with silver spray and red eyes? Market value? Release date/time etc?

    Thanks in advance and hope you don't mind me borrowing the photo muton.

    If I'm not mistaken, I believe its the Walder Akro...and he's super sweet.

    I haven't seen very many for sale at all...which means he's expensive I'm sure.....this version and the red and clear pink fade version are my faves...

    It's not the walder. It is solid colors no clear vinyl. Anyone?

    The Walder Akro is clear purple with black and silver spray.

    Are you sure the base color of the vinyl is black? It looks a little greenish in the photo (although it is so dark that it is hard to tell), which would make it the phone order Akro released in March of this year.

    Maybe it is that. How much do you think I should expect to pay for one?

    Probably not a lot more than stateside retail. S7 had one sitting around for while on the website.

    On the other hand, I have not seen a whole lot of these being traded or sold on the boards recently.

    That's definitely what I thought. That was my first Akro, personally and I like him a lot. I would say he's around 65 - 75?

    considering the phone order mutant head sells for 70-85 and is more sought after, i would agree that this is retail to 75 max.

    Glad someone set the record staright. Whats all that noise anout it being a Waldar akro?

    It my favorite Mutant Head colorway, and the colorway I poposed for Franks big Evil.

    300=? For sure. These days with RxH fever, I'd say you would probably be looking at 5+ Sounds like 31,000 at Mandarake was a good deal, below $300? A steal!

    Mine did not come with teh extra Bigaro part - it came sealed in its own bag as I recall. I've only ever seen teh extra bigaro part once...and that was on YJ for stoopid money...just before stoopid money became de rigeur.
