The female sort of looks like Hepzibah, from the Starjammers. That would be a rather random choice.

That is Hepzibah. She ran with the X-Force for awhile. Not sure how that came about but she's in the Messiah Complex series.
I hope these end up like Gargoyle and Nighthawk. (More available and the prices go down...)
--
Just noticed Hepzibah on the Rise and Fall of the Shi-ar Empire Novel. Might be the connection. I'll have to re-read it. Of course I could always just look on the internet but where's the fun in that?
--
Hepzibah gets stranded on earth after the death of Corsair. Warpath has the hots for her. I'm not sure if they ever hook up.

These look real and not custom. Did I miss something? Are they just displays from the Toy fair, or will we see these?

I believe they showed up at a Toy Fair 1 or 2 years ago. But nothing was ever said about their release. I'd have to assume that X amount were made for display purposes at least...

I think it was a year ago they were displayed at one of the conventions (comic con or toyfair.) I was hoping they would come out as I need the Warpath head and hands for customs. However at the rate they are going I will ahve to just figure something else out.

I think the seller inadvertently shot himself in the foot by letting everyone know that he has at least 15 of them left. The first few auctions went for as much as they did because nobody knew that there were that many to go around and every auction could potentially be their last chance.

I bet the guy who paid $300 is kicking himself now.

Last nights Warpath went for just about $50 and Hepzibah went for a little over $40. Meanwhile, he's still showcasing that he has at least 15 left in reserve so expect these prices to continue dropping.

Anyone here get Warpath or Hepzibah yet? I've been trying to snipe the last couple but feel bad because while I don't want to pay more than $40-60; I think they would've sold for a lot less had I not bid at the last second. Gotta love ebay...

Yeah, I just got them in the mail today along with the new lizard. Very fast shipping considering where they're coming from. The seller even threw in a complimentary Mandarin figure.  I way overpaid for them (about $100 each), but I'm not beating myself up over it because at the time there was no way to know that he was going to put so many up for sale. I couldn't miss the opportunity a second time since I was very regretful for missing out on the short-lived first round of Warpath/Hepzibah auctions over a year ago while waiting for prices to drop and thought I wouldn't get a second chance. |
