I've had this since I opened the game in 1992. I'd say it's mint condition. just wanted to see if anyone on here needed one to complete their mimp cib.

    Collecting is just astounding, isn't it? A crappy little figure like this can go for $150, and people will pay $65+ for a literal paperweight... Well, such is life

    Well, it's actually been above $200 at some points and it is in line with other figurine inserts I can think of. Gauntlet Legends on N64 is probably about $150-$200 for the figure, and the keychain plush on Big Box Rampage has been as high as $1,000.



    So $150 for a MIMP figure isn't too bad GL bud!

    Ditto and thanks guys. I always thought I was a collector until these prices started getting so insane. then I realized I was a player first and foremost. I am selling this to fund a snes powerpak purchase

    I'd be more willing to pay $150 for this than the $1000 I sold my pepsi invaders for!

    I was just saying that people paying this much for a crappy figure in general is kinda funny when you think about it, not that hne listed it at an insane price or anything

    This is really cool. MIMP CIB is actually one I've been on the hunt for lately. I still have all my MIMP figures from when I was a kid. My sister and I used to play checkers with them because it was more exciting lol.



    Just curious though, why sell? This seems like one of those personal items from your youth. I'm a big nostalgia guy so I have a hard time letting things like that go.

    EDIT: Nevermind. I see you sold it on ebay.

    Even though I've owned him for 23 years and also it is my only surviving original mimp toy from my youth I decided to sell it mainly to fund the snes powerpak(my wife loves snes) purchase and I also figured that a mimp collector should have it. To me it's just a lil piece of video game merch but to those guys it's the grail! FYI for anybody concerned with price charting for future reference I accepted a best offer for $120 from a die hard mimp collector. I shipped it today. if somehow this guy backs out and actually ships it back to me or something(crazier things have happened) I'll let you guys know
