Thanks to Darth Hank for helping me get my URU Obake. $50! . . . Today was a good day!

 Re: Underrated Secret base toys
I don't have any SB stuff, never been a collector. I've thought a few times about picking up some pieces, but seeing that coca-cola brain pic and those dogs lined up make me want to start collecting. soda-colored vinyl looks so great. maybe if I get a chance to handle some SB at SDCC I'll become a believer. Sometimes seeing it in person is all it takes.

 Re: Underrated Secret base toys
I'm a big fan of the OG Obake sculpt. This Atmos silver flake version is a personal favorite of mine.

No arguments there, but I know this colorway along with the yellow Atmos weren't necessarily hot commodities and sat available at most retailers for months and months.

 Re: Underrated Secret base toys
I think the Blue Masked Ranger is my favorite (and first) SB Figure hands down. Mantises get no love either.

 Re: Underrated Secret base toys
Deka Bee- that is big awesome hunk of vinyl that dominates the collection.
Nightshadow Mad Mantis- why the hell is it still up for sale all over the place. That thing should have sold out a week after its release. Maybe my favorite SB figure.

 Re: Underrated Secret base toys
havingmysay wrote: way underrated.. i have that and the chase.. i need the ice blue and whatever else is out there it's also the most underrated CURE toy too. i was almost poor enough to offer my ice blue to you a couple months back, but i held back. the blue is just too good and i've always liked cooler colors over hotter ones. but i know it's in your long-term Wants list, so I'll keep my eyes open and offer it to you first if I need to move it. alifeintoys wrote: uberboy wrote: most underrated secret base toy is the collab with Cure Hedorah good call!!!  ...both regular & secret version are awesome. maybe im wrong but think there was an unnumbered reissue of it.  ...underrated with good reason. are you talking about the darker red and black one?

 Re: Underrated Secret base toys
I have been looking for the chase version forever. Can anyone post a photo of it? I don't think I've ever actually seen it, even around the time of initial release.
I have the regular version and ice version, though. Just missing the most elusive, of course.

 Re: Underrated Secret base toys
I was trying to sell that chase on here a few months back with NO takers. I decided to give it to a friend on the board instead. ha.
I still love it. GREAT toy.
