Not really. We broached it a few times in the Hasbro Q&A sessions, but it wasn't really the place. We were looking into doing something ourselves but the costs were too high and the legal ramifications too risky. The easiest and best thing is to persuade Hasbro to do it for us as not only do they have the means and the distribution, the line will also be official.

There are plans in motion, but nothing to really report yet. Does anybody know of a statistics site that could chart the increase in Red Shadow values over the past five years? That would be really useful.

I have a spare left leg. PM me your address, please.

It's a thin boot non-dufus foot.

Saw that one, seems to be a few up for grabs at the moment, i got my first red laser exterminator today its in really good condition. I don't think i'll start bidding on the shadows yet, still looking for another 65 cobra troopers, hopefully in that time the shadow price will drop.

I think we might see a lull in which the price of Shads will drop, not sure how long it will last, grab em while you can

All us BFTB'ers will probably end up driving the price up even more if JohnIgoe bails out ;) Be like lambs to the slaughter.

I don't think he was outbid on any, it was a good thing he was only bidding on single red shadows. I think he could well have just stamped £20 on them, can't see anyone else doing that

The only hope of beating JIG is if he missed one I think. But $40 for a shad is way too rich for me.

The problem would be now that even if johnigoe decided he had enough shadows that due to them being so difficult to buy would it then start a buying frenzy from all other collectors which in turn would keep prices higher than necessary?
