    Most wanted/rare Vintage MOC?

    What are your most desired, rare and/or most expensive Vintage MOC?

    The one's that come to mind are:

    He-Man 8 Back (with He-Man and The Power Sword Mini-Comic)

    Faker 8 Back

    Scare Glow (Last issue without the 'New' and with glow in the dark Halbred weapon)

    I know I am missing a lot here. What would you consider the most rare/hard to find MOC? Thanks.

    I would take all of those on your list.

    Others that I think are rare are Trap Jaw, Snake Face and Man E Faces. I don't see too many Mekanecks either. And for that matter, Multi bot!

    What would you consider a decent price? I saw one on ebay last week with a decent crease along the top of the bubble that went for something like $800.

    A minty Sssqueeze MOC is impossible to find - or pay for!
    In the above mentioned gang; I'd go for 8-back He-man.

    God, I hope for you, you didn't rip that card yourself back then?
    It's painful enough to think of all the 8 backs one have destroyed!

    I had no clue Mosquitor with Ultimage Battleground mini-comic was rare. I have won Mosquitor case fresh a couple of days ago and after reading this thread I realized it has the UB comic : http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWNX:IT

    I know Mosquitor in this condition usually go ~$175+ but is it a better deal because it is this variant?

    Wonderbread He-Man

    I suppose the infamous Wonderbread He-Man isn't listed because it's not an official He-Man and the Masters of the Universe item. Otherwise I would go for Original He-Man- quite expensive!

    Amazing deal man!!! I had to pay 4+ for mine... It's uncommon with the UBG mini comic and in that condition you found yours in, well that's just sweeet!

    I would say a Really nice Man-e-weapons with Ordeal of manefaces is quite rare!!

    Well I'd say that a MOC Leo Faker is less common than an 8 Back US Faker, regardless of region.

    My childhood MOC Mosquitor has the UB comic in it. I paid $35 for him in like 1994. :-)

    The rarest and most expensive carded figures would be the US 8-back, but in Europe we have a lot of very rare carded figures like the laser power he-man spanish release with classic head, Euro Faker, YB , YB super, 6 back FR TV, 8 back FR...
    And some of them are still unknown...

    Amateur

    Look, I don't pretend for a second that I am anyting but an amateur collector. What I can tell you is that I received a vintage Trap Jaw loose figure this morning, and it gives me even greater pleasure than when I got him as a child!

    Is anyone interested in these figures just because of nostalgia like me? Or is it just about how much they're worth?

    From the listed above I think the most rare is Man-E Faces with extra weapons but for me is definitely He-Man 8-Back with "He-Man and The Power Sword Mini-Comic".
    The gleam of the Power Sword lights your way as you enter the fantastic world of Eternia...

    I don't collect carded figures, but if I did I would be foremost interested in the original 8 first wave, and He-Man would be the top of the list as the most important nostalgia figure being the most historically important to the toy industry and 80s culture.

    Man E Faces with extra weapons would be a second choice out of the list given (i would've taken Skeletor as the number 2 want option) , because of the importance of the true confirmed origin of the maroon weapons often associated with the special edition promo he-man, but unconfirmed.
