Auction Watch #16

Posted by Chad Perry in Auction Watch, UofM News on October 7, 2009

Diligence and resourcefulness are two of the most important qualities in a M.U.S.C.L.E. collector. This auction, which is ending soon, is a great example of using those qualities to find M.U.S.C.L.E. figures – including a Magenta #136.

Art 200 highlighted Marty Hansen’s custom M.U.S.C.L.E. figures. Normally buyers need to order directly from Marty, but there is a unique opportunity to own around 100 figures because of a current eBay auction.

Satan Cross has been a relatively popular topic on UofM lately with the SCI and Auction Watch #10. With the appearance of two Satan Cross auctions on eBay it seemed worthwhile to acknowledge both auctions for various reasons.

Auction Watch #11

Posted by Chad Perry in Auction Watch on September 3, 2009

For any M.U.S.C.L.E. collector it is exciting to see a legitimately large collection. It is equally exciting to see it on eBay and, sometimes, even a bit surprising. This auction is a “Lot of 450 Muscle Men (M.U.S.C.L.E.)” and makes the most detrimental mistake for an auction of hundreds of M.U.S.C.L.E. figures – terrible pictures.

This week saw the introduction of the Satan Cross Index (SCI), so it seemed fitting to highlight the sale of a Satan Cross figure. After ~25 hours of work, someone in Mexico City could have a legitimate chance of winning this figure.

Several auctions could have been selected this week, but one auction was especially noteworthy – it highlighted both the good and bad aspects of M.U.S.C.L.E. lots.

Experienced M.U.S.C.L.E. collectors have often heard about but rarely seen the prototype Hot Wheels M.U.S.C.L.E. HiWay Hauler. Some collectors have taken it upon themselves to create custom versions. This is a perfect auction for customizers looking to create a HiWay Hauler.

A New eBay Problem for Collectors

Posted by Chad Perry in UofM News on August 14, 2009

eBay will be stealing your pictures and letting someone else use it to sell their junk. They’ve made a simple trick of nefarious sellers much eaiser. One stolen picture example is given. What does this mean for M.U.S.C.L.E. collectors?
