Irrational Craving For Bionicles


Ka-Chan

413 views

I figured I had matured more then this. Perhaps it's just that I have so much I can spend that I've begun contemplating things I never would have considered before. Maybe the resurfacing of the Toy Story franchise reawakened some inner kid in me?

 

But man, I got a bizarre urge to get my hands on some Turaga. Maybe the Bohrok Va too.

 

Why? I have no clue. I always knew I wanted Nuju, but this bad? Holy dooley.

 

I own the green guy *yes, I forgot his name*, Nokama, Vakama and the black one... But I never managed to get a hold of Nuju or Onepu. That's where the dilemma comes into play.

 

 

Unfortunately, people on Ebay think that six 4$ figures *which would add up to a mere 24$* apparently quadruples into 100$ worth. Seems they're trying to appeal to collectors, and I guess in this scenario I 'technically' fall into that group. The difference being I don't feel like spending a full blown Benjamin on 2 inch tall plastic robot men.

 

So I guess my real question is this: Anyone on here got a more reasonable alternative? You wouldn't get a lot of money out of me, but I might be willing to trade off things.

hmm

 

try looking around on other sites as well for better deals?

 

 

also I know why you want them, it's because they're too awesome not to have~

Other sites? I'd ask for examples, but there's that whole "OTHER WEBSITES DO NOT EXIST" policy that goes on around here.

There's a much better site for purchasing old sets (among other things) - it's an "Unofficial Lego Marketplace." The Turaga can each be bought from various sellers for only a little more (sometimes less) than their MSRPs. I recommend searching around the Interwebs.

You could check the B/S/T forum as I have a feeling there are plenty of people in there who are probably trading off/selling off their 2001 Turaga sets.
