Your Latest Pickups........ Volume 2

hellhippie wrote:Lol yeah Steve that was the plan bro.. but now the plan is to get any coin i can get under 100$ so the royal guard was a must at a decent price. Some cat 3s are just too pricey .

The bargains are potentially still out there Bill, so you never know what might come your way.

I don't recall ever seeing coin offer stickers at retail in the UK on imported Kenner cards & I'm not aware of any Palitoy cards with the offer, so I presume it wasn't available here.

I. Coins for characters introduced during the POTF era that were found bundled with carded figures. Kenner produced these new figures in greater proportions than characters that had previously appeared on a card, hence these coins are the easiest to find.
II. This category pertains to coins for characters that were found on POTF card but had also appeared on earlier cards. These coins are less common than the POTF exclusives in Category I.
III. These are mail-away exclusive coins (i.e. they were never bundled with carded figures). Coins in this category are almost as common as coins that appeared on card as these coins were the most likely ones to be received via the POTF coin mail away offer.
IV. Tougher mailaway-only coins. Some of these were shipped to consumers, but in far fewer quantity than Category III coins.
V. Coins in this category are extremely rare. Most people attempting to complete POTF sets spend half their time looking for this small set of coins. Extremely few of these coins were made available to the public and most of the coins in circulation from this category were obtained directly from Kenner employees.
VI. Prototype coins and rare variations. Coins in this category are so limited that only a small handful of each is known to exist.
