I know for Marvel, it is not that Lego does not have the rights to sell action figures, it is just a business decision by Marvel to only sell the figures in sets.

There are a lot of unbuilt Lego sets on eBay without the figures, I'm assuming purchased by people who just wanted the figures.

theres a guy we always see at the bigger cons. thats his business. he busts all the sets and sells the minifigs and then the complete set without the minifigs in a ziploc bag. probably cheaper to buy just the sets, but, i did score a Rancor and bacta tank Luke from him last year. the sets those were in were pricey.

Don't know if any of you seen these, but i was shocked to see a copycat of the Lego SuperHeroes. We already had the regular size Avengers Quinjet. So when i saw the miniature one....i was very delighted until the clerk brought me the box that it came in. It cost $7. The pieces looks exactly like the Lego pieces, but without the Lego logo on the plastics. They even had Star Wars ones too.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Cool! If they do, I would appreciate it if you could pick up two for me and I will repay you for the two plus shipping. (one for me and one for my youngest daughter).
