I can't do it. I can't "Iron Man" my Indiana Jones collection. It must stick only to a few vintage figs and some of the new figs.

JCMA, I believe that AFA has been around longer than CGC, and yeah, there is a pretty serious (read: demented) toy market.

IMJ, first off, nice pickup! I believe those boxes are the same size as vintage 12" Star Wars figures, so there must be something. I believe AFA sells cases even for non-submitted figures, and they assuming that they are the ones that I keep seeing at conventions, and have all sorts of strange ones to accomodate things like Transformers box flaps.

Awesome... I'll be at the Chicago Convention next week for all of the events days so I'll scope it out there then. I've gotta store this thing in something that gives it some presentation.

Congrats. I used to have all the Indy figures. Alas, a box got put in the basement, the box got wet and...you know the drill. Coolio for you to find such a minty edition. :clap:

Ah, I feel for ya man. And that my friend, is why Rubbermaid storage totes are so essential for collector's storage.
