I don't think so. But again, I bought these when they came out. I would hold off if I were you.....

I've bought from this seller before, good guy to deal with. He had a set of these awhile back I saw that at regular auction a same set brought $150 which explains the buy it now price . IMHO they ain't gettin' no cheaper...I don't think is such a bad deal, just me.

Not if you think paying over $20 per figure is a good buy.

Are you looking to collect these Vietnam figs BECAUSE they are on the card?

The newer ones that just came out have some better features than the older ones. But you may be wanting the older ones to complete the collection.

If you are wanting to collect the older VN figs, the Buy/Sell/Trade section of this board is a good resource.

Ok administrator, delete one. Wasn't there a time when you could delete your own post?

I think the high price point is because of the NVA and Vietcong figs, which is apparently almost impossible to find these days.

But eh. Not really worth it, IMHO.

Corey offers the SS figure set as an exclusive through smalljoes.com for about $80. According to the website, they are still in stock.

I agree Razor.If you are looking to collect them than this might be the way to go.You can grab them all in one auction and you don't have to keep searching for them.I don't think the price is great,but for the right collector it might be the answer.
