There are some good pieces visible at least:
I for sure like that GID skullbrain, the Kaiju mantis and the skull bee.

what else is in there? looks like a pink obake, fan club blue balzac, Ollie skull bee, at least a couple atmos obakes, the aforementioned damagebrain, the warp balzac, & who knows what else?
When I first saw this a few days ago, i started thinking about whether some of my most wanted could be deep within the box, and I've been thinking about since.

I don't know that the seller'd do it. I had a friend inquire about it and he was only able to get minimal info. But I share the sentiment for sure. the divvying could get hard I think. I know I would really only be interested in very specific versions.

a couple of newer details- the box includes both SB and Gargamel, and there are no duplicates. The seller does not seem very interested in doing too much work on this auction.

I think that the main point seems to be how high the reserve is on the auction.

The Gargamel factor kind of changes things doesn't it? if it's 1/2 Gargamel and 1/2 SB...Hmmm.

No doubles though? Interesting...

LOL. I did the same thing...I was going to post it but it was really long.

You know now it is the Gargamel thing that troubles me the most...is it the best stuff on top,?I guess if I were selling thats what I would do. But 120 pieces total? There has to be more decent stuff than just whats on top right?

for some reason when i translate gargamel it usually comes out as moth-mel. i'd be a little hesitant to bid on it unless i could see the entire contents.

Yeah. The attitude the sellers seem to be taking with this whole thing is a little odd.

If you really want to sell it for a high price a little more info would help.

So is the idea of a team buy a dead option? I can understand if Super 7 is in the mix and the whole "not biting the hand that feeds you" tip.

Does anyone know off-hand when the auction is up?

i think a team purchase would be a lot more feasible if we all knew what the figures are?

makes it pretty confusing when it's a guessing game!

I just now, after all of my blathering about this, noticed it says "Seller will not ship internationally"...

Is this were Celga or something like it comes in as part of the middle man service?

That never stopped any of us before...

Yes, pick an agent and swing whatever you want.

Celga has already bid once on this one. That leaves Rinkya or M-world I think. I have a person I've dealt with a lot and am really happy with if someone's pulling the trigger ont his - there's certainly a couple I'd be happy to kick in for.

Celgas first bidder was under the reserve-they contacted me to see if i still wanted this auction,this was after they declined me due to the first guy/girl, but it may still be open.

I keep wanting someone to jump on this but I lack the know-how and the big brass ones to do it alone.

But the idea of missing out on some possibly choice shit is drving me nutty.
So if the group option starts up before this ends I'm willing to go in for a couple hundred or more.

My guess is that this may very well not reach the reserve price, although who knows? If not hopefully the seller will break it up into smaller, more manageable lots - that would've been a better idea for them anyway.
