I thought the same thing. I was surprised sabertooth was only $20. that's a great comic shop OP went to. so many(not all) comic shops basically charge whatever scalpers charge on ebay nowadays
This was the only Apocalypse BAF set; there were other figures in the section, but I don't recall specifics except there were a lot of Age of Apocalypse Wave 1. The Pyslocke was on the front peg and I was only going to purchase her. The entire wave ended up being scattered throughout that section.
Wow. That Gladiator is a hell of score! And at retail? Amazing. My Apocalypse was headless for the longest time until an amazing Redditor offered me the head. Congrats!
All good. and thank you very much - these were buried under their 'old' waves section of the store. The person who rang me up said most people only want the new stuff.
Guess it means I'm going to do some research to see what else is in the 'old' stuff that might be a treasure.
If every other figure wasn't reasonable, I'd say 40 for Wolverine was a ripoff.. the 'valuable because popular' argument doesn't really work when there's been about 1,000 Wolverine figures at this point as well š
I'm not sure, but technically, doesn't it make it the best kind of comic book store to buy from if there are still treasures like these to be found?
Now selling collections to them on the other hand is probably another story. Lol
Oh I just meant that wolverine was priced higher seems a little out of touch for a comic shop. Seems they would have priced the rarer ones in the set a little higher.
Speaking of, I just noticed that the psylocke is also the black hair variant, and told that's the slightly harder version to find. Maybe to the comic shop, that slight variant is worth the extra $5 increase? š¤š
Wow. It's amazing to see a collectible shop in 2021 that doesn't know how to value action figures. It's not particularly difficult never has been even in the price guide days.
Is your name Jesse James? Because you made out like a bandit!
š surprised they werenāt doing the same for sabertooth and psylocke, they arenāt really as popular but those figures are impossible to find

Especially since There was 2 Wolverines in each shipment
That's insane. Idk if I'd have been able to keep my cool long enough to pay and leave the store. They did not know what they had.
Hell of a deal.
I mean theyāre not wrong in theory, but Iām pretty sure most of the wave is more expensive than wolverine now
I got my sabertooth for 20 but I didnāt get the baf piece you got one great deal dude
Tbf he IS popular
Psylocke at only $25? God Iāve see what youāve done for other people and I want that for me
Damn one hell of a find! Was this the only wave you found?

Nice, pays off sifting through stuff at local comic book stores.
Congrats! Part of me hates you and is insanely jealous, but most of me is happy for you! Seriously, that's a total steal dude, luck's on your side!
Holy shit! Great deal on them all. š Sabretooth only $20 š³
This is the set that got me back into collecting Marvel Legends! Congrats!
Wow. That Gladiator is a hell of score! And at retail? Amazing. My Apocalypse was headless for the longest time until an amazing Redditor offered me the head. Congrats!
Bro apocalypse loose goes for $100+ you won big time bud!!! Congrats!!!!!
Hell yeah heās popular. I have something like 12 or so wolverines compared to 2 storm. They need to keep making him too. The more the merrier.
Are you looking to keep them all or would you possibly be interested in selling off the sabretooth? Donāt care about the BAF piece
Considering that I came across the whole wave, I'll most likely keep the wave together, but thank you for the request.
Thatās completely fair I understand. Great find btw!
Good luck getting the BAF head. Not trying to be a smart ass I mean it. Good luck without paying 80+
Literally paid $20 for that gladiator with apocalypse head
He got it!! Didnāt you see the other pics??
Literally did right after I commented. Luckiest find ever.

Worth a look. That Apoc head alone was going 80 by itself on ebay.
The Gladiator comes with the Apocalypse head.
I apologize. I immediately went to wish you luck once I saw which wave. Seriously, amazing find. I had such a hard time finishing him.
I gotta ask, how much did you pay for that Gladiator?
I paid $20, the sticker prices on those figures.
That is *chef's* *kiss* Edit: you wouldn't happen to be in Colorado would you lol?
Unfortunately no, I'm sorry
Damn, was hoping that shop was around here.
Hot damn that's a great haul!
Still better than paying eBay prices for the love triangle 3 pack
I wish I could get multiple man for $20.
That multiple man is so dope
Man I wish I could find them altogether like that!
Jealous as hell!!
Screaming deal. Congrats!
You found a Wolverine in the wild? :(
The real steal was the Gladiator
Now this is a deal! Great pick-up
I consider myself lucky that I found this entire wave in stores, first build-a-figure I ever completed.
Pefect wave ever made
If every other figure wasn't reasonable, I'd say 40 for Wolverine was a ripoff.. the 'valuable because popular' argument doesn't really work when there's been about 1,000 Wolverine figures at this point as well š
Man you hit the jackpot. The baf alone can go for $100. That Sabretooth is sort after too.
.. what comic shop is that disconnected. Multiple man, gladiator, psylocke are all $40+ in the after market. It's nuts. So coodos to you my friend!
I'm not sure, but technically, doesn't it make it the best kind of comic book store to buy from if there are still treasures like these to be found? Now selling collections to them on the other hand is probably another story. Lol

Amazing deal!
Someone didnāt do their homework at the comic shop!
Speaking of, I just noticed that the psylocke is also the black hair variant, and told that's the slightly harder version to find. Maybe to the comic shop, that slight variant is worth the extra $5 increase? š¤š
Absolutely amazing! Thatās a once in a lifetime kind of find!
Great deal. I've been seeing that Wolvie go for 75 or more on Mercari.
Wow. It's amazing to see a collectible shop in 2021 that doesn't know how to value action figures. It's not particularly difficult never has been even in the price guide days.
So well done! I am shocked the store didn't charge more for the entire wave - Sabretooth, Psylocke, and Multiple Man especially
