    Wow, I can honestly say that, that is the first time I have ever seen this! Cool find, but don't blow all of your hard earned dough on it though...

    That is cool, but I don't know if it's $5000 cool. At least he threw in free shipping, I guess! I love when ebay sellers charge thousands for a figure or set of figures, but won't throw in the $5-20 for shipping.

    I'm guessing this toy is just a redesigned Stretch Armstrong, but I've never heard of it before!

    Also, I've been "promoted" to Hydra Lackey, but as a staunch DC advocate, I would rather be a Kobra Lackey.

    thanks alot for the advice guys and im with you, i wouldnt pay that much for a figure. in my opinion that price is insanely high and ridiculous... i personally wouldnt pay anythin beyond $250, for an action figure no matter how old or rare it is..... and i also think its funny when ebay sellers are sellin an item at extortion prices, but then the shipping and insurance is free... and at $5,000 for this figure (and this is not even factory sealed, so i cant even begin to imagine the price, if it was....) makes me wonder if the figure was personally made, by the hands of God.... this thing is just like the stretch armstrong and you can stretch it the same way, it probably even has that same jelly substance inside. the only thing that makes them different are the head sculps, and that Plas has the grid on his chest. but other than that, its the same figure. ive never owned this figure, and i was always lookin for it. but i would only buy it, if its within the price range that im willin to pay.

    I remember the Superman and Batman versions, didn't realize they made a Plas version as well.
    You won't find me paying that kind of scratch for any figure though, even if it was made of gold and diamond encrusted. (Unless it was actually worth ten times that and I was getting an incredible deal, then maybe.)

    dont forget that the figure also has to have, a "pure petroleum" filling....and a map to find the "Aron Habrit"....
