what you need to do Ironblood is buy both now then sell the boxed version later to recoup your cost!

I couldn't afford both Jamar and knowing in me I wouldn't be able to sell one off.

And rightly so! Most US collectors know of The Shadows as they go mad for the "European Variants" of the figures they know, so I certainly think most collectors will know of these over the Argen7 or other 'groups'. Also, going back,

being a different coloured

,

&

etc puts the Red Shadows on most peoples "liked" list. So this set is long overdue really.
But then again, we're a tad biased around here!
My prediction - vintage Shad prices to climb even higher in months to come! I suspect JohnGIJoe had advanced knowledge of this and as such his vast army of Shadows is going to be drip fed back onto the market to fund his pension. I have yet to come up with a theory about the pants though....

That makes 4 of us so far then Redrage! Only 296 sets of loose and 496 boxed sets left!
Does anyone know if one member can order any extra sets? i.e could I order 2 or 3 sets of each on my membership? I know you can only get one loose set per boxed set ordered, but just wondering if there is any limit on it?

I'm hoping Red Torch isn't an actual torch! Perhaps a Jamie and His Magic Torch action figure? Jamie has been brainwashed by the Black Major??? Does it say anything about a Wordsworth action figure at all?
Okay, sorry about that - I've had sugar and coffee this afternoon after going cold turkey on it for a while, which coupled with Shadow related giddyness has made me a little mental.
Back in the real world I'm expecting it might be some sort of Flamethrower toting Shad?
