jackson did one or two to the best of my knowledge....the others that are floating around were done by gpk killa and atomboy if i'm not mistaken. maybe they still come here from time to time and can chime in. there was a website you can add in photos to works of art and other pics to create these, so a lot of cheap toy related ones were made during the "hayday" back in the day.

It is an exciting week in Cheaptoyland! We get a little "pulse of the market" check in with a Sunshine Phylis up for bid on eBay. She currently sits at $89.88. I guess it sells for $125 and $160. Anybody think it will go higher?

Who doesn't check eBay daily for new Cheaptoy listings anyway? |

I think it's funny how guys try to outbid each other days before an auction even ends. Your just raising it higher on yourselves. We all know an auction winner is determined within the last few seconds of an auction.

It's a CA but a bit cruddy on that top barbell. It could wash up pretty well. Somebody thinks so .... And yes Paul I never understood bidding early on things |

And yes Paul I never understood bidding early on things I bid early sometimes especially with sketch cards I wanted. Nothin like lettin chumps bid something up in $5 increments until that shi*s a couple hundred dollars. That lets them know what time it is and that's his shi* ain't a fu*kin game.  |

I've seen that too guys constantly bidding by $5. It's funny because I bid at the last second and usually end of winning 75% of the time. These guys who just bid against each other are pretty much just wasting their time with the endless back and forth and showing their hand. Maybe it's a bragging kinda thing? Just because your the high bidder for the week doesn't mean sh@t. You better bring your A game for the last 10 sconds is all I got to say.

I think most people, if they are serious about an item know their final number amd will stick with it unless they catch that last second fever. If I am all in on something, I would still babysit that auction until the end and usually throw some insurence money on top just to make sure I bring it home. True too that being the high bidder a few days out doesn't mean squat but if you are in it for real you can let the pretenders know this ain't for them with a nice initial bid. |

I will sometimes throw a high initial bid(not my highest) just to ward people away but I still reserve my top dog bid for the ass end with 5 seconds left

Well for those that care I threw a bid on the fire. It's a biggun so if you want it you gotta top $300 US. I say that because there's always that one guy who wants it cheap but can't afford it so they have to raise you by $5 to your max to make you pay as much as possible.It's actually still pretty cheap compared to how much these things used to sell for. A series 2 on average was $400.

If this toy goes for any more than it is now maybe it will move other folks to sell. that is exactly the reason none have moved/changed hands in years....it takes the high prices, to make the folks holding onto them, to want to sell them. collectors dont really care to sell a small plastic/rubber figure for a mere 200 dollars...psh |
