A Rare eBay Sale

A case with a dozen G1 Astrotrains and Blitzwings were recently discovered from deadstock. It looks pretty legit and a rare find from 1985.

They actually look legit, at least the box front differs from that of the infamous Zhong Jin KO...

Looks legit, but that's over 1,000 per figure and I don't think they go for that much even in MIB condition.

You really have to wonder what the point of buying this auction is. I mean, even if a collector wins, what is he going to do, display a big ass factory box full of MISB figures you can't even see?

I totally agree. From the description it sounds like the sellers know they have something rare but are not in the Transformers collectors business and threw a number out there. Unless you turn these all into AFA displays - I think the number is too high.

I think the potential for grading is why the seller listed these so high.

Someone offered to take 4 of those off hand for $500 a pop so he's about 2X higher than he should be. Still. what a rare find. Even the box that carried it might be worth some scratch.
I'm a LEGEND in my time...
Not a LEGEND in my mind.

Pittsburgh? I'm betting he's a buyer for the one collectibles store there. (If it still exists.)
