 gargamel gargantuas! the m1 gargantuas eluded me for much of the year, to my surprise these solid black blanks show up, which i have never seen before:  when it rains it pours... i also found a painted set of these last month, so they are on the way soon.

Re: gargamel gargantuas! Which painted set did you find? M1 Mail Order or Gargamel Thrash Out? I must admit I got the green/tan mail order set out of frustration of not being able to find the Thrash Out set but I love it just as much now. Both are pretty dope! Best gargantuas made IMO. Nice score.

Re: gargamel gargantuas! Ahhh so you were the buyer for those on YJA. Great deal 150 for all 6.

Re: gargamel gargantuas! Damn, $150 for all 6. That's a steal, I probably spent $125 on just the thrash-out set over a year ago. I still need the regular painted set and the blanks. Great score!

still a bargin. Whoops it started at 15000- my bad. I'm getting old  I was watching it, did it end at 250? Still a good deal at less than 84 a set. M1 Painted Gargantuas (both sets) are hard to come by. Trust me I was looking for the Thrash Out version for a year before I got lucky.

Re: gargamel gargantuas! i cant believe these figures dont get more attention, theyre so great! i picked up the unpainted black pair from the m1 table at superfest, and passed on a thrash out set at mandarake, just too pricey to pull the trigger. i kind of regret it now!
i dont know of any beyond these four sets, is that all?
nice pickup chad!

still a bargin. Great deal. Just got my first set recently and they are awesome. I've been on the hunt for the Thrashout versions for a while. Beyond the 4 sets (flesh, black, thrashout, green/tan) there is a purple lottery version Gaira.

Re: gargamel gargantuas! I looked for the M1 Gargs for quite a while before finding them here at a decent price. Mine are fleshies so I have to slather paint on them...but would really like to get the other painted versions. Great figs and great movie! M1 Frankenstein too! I posted a disturbing pic of my somewhat painted ones on this thread: http://www.skullbrain.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=25439
