Blood for the Baron!

American collector, now no longer collecting. He was selling off a lot of his stuff. I scored a short boot variant (loose) for very reasonable money. Hang on a minute, I'll see if I dig out his ebay id. Or you could try messaging him here on BFTB, but I don't think he's around any more. He might have one... or 6 spare.

Yeah, as Hop' says, an American chap who went nuts over & .

He's a nice bloke but drove prices through the roof with his crazy high bidding, @ one point, I simply gave up trying to find complete loose (@ least on ebay) in fear of getting into a bidding war with him.
He seemed determined to buy up every single & he could, even if they weren't up for sale.
I mind posting a dio' picture once featuring my (one & only) ... I soon received a p.m. asking if I would be willing to sell it to him.

jez he must of had deep pockets if thats the crack he was at

He also de carded some very rare German and series one figures

He told me he was writing a book on The German line before selling up.

What exactly did he open out of curiosity?

Can anyone remember that time he (Travis I think his name is?) posted up a video of his young son opening a rare M.O.C. figure?

(Of course it may of been a custom re-card job)

Phoned, night patrol and a few others

He opened a night patrol?

Bloody idiot! Thats about 200 pounds to get. Phone 100-200 depending on the day.
So he probably wasted a thousand US dollars in opened figures

Those closed stay closed and can always get a nice loose version if needed
