Post YJA and "irregular" Vintage figures
Hey all,
Since it looks like I'm falling down the vintage path, can you vintage collectors tell me from experience. I see some figures on YJA that are cheap because they may have a hole or two here and there (not like a leg missing or a toe fallen off). If I'm starting to dip in the vintage pool do you advise that I hold off until I find one thats in good condition because I'll be kicking myself for buying a beat up one later? Thanks for any advice

Unless it's something that's normally so rare or expensive that you know you'll kick yourself later, I'd say hold out and save your pennies for a good one, and only buy the beaters when you need them for parts.

I have to agree...
Unless it's something really really rare... wait for a really nice copy with no markers, nicotine (ha!) or heavy paint rubs.
