Check this out! Somebody paying more than $70 for the new STAS 4 Pack + shipping from Hong Kong!

LOL this bidder is located in the US, did nobody tell him that he can this at amazon for $20?

*LMAO*

I paid $30 (using buy it now) for mine but only because amazon won't ship toys to Germany.

Well, one's man's trash is another man's treasure. It may seem funny someone is buying it for that much, but hey, at least you know these Batman and Superman toys are a good investment, and people are willing to buy them at almost any cost. It makes me look at my collection and almost value them more knowing there are people out there that are willing to pay an outrageous price for them.

But then again, I don't collect my toys for their market value, I collect them because they're dear to me and they hold the greatest personal value. A true Bat-fan.

Is the Hong Kong pack different in terms of packaging or painting or anything? That could be a reason he's paying...

it shouldn't be different only US and Canadian TRU stores get the 4 Pack. I don't even think they have TRU stores in Hong Kong. They are all over Europe and in Japan but in Hong Kong? Well I don't really know.

BTW Cosmocat from which episode does your avatar come from???

I'm not sure, either. They might have them in HK. If the package itself is no different, I guess the guy's just impatient.

My avatar is from Day of the Samurai, when Bruce is poked in the chest by Kodai Ken.
