Inventitive hoard pics, as the condition isn't going to be an issue.

EG.

Fill a bath of them and lie in it re-creating the scene from Scarface.
or
Singing in the Rain style pic, with Turok bouncing from your umbrella (Titled: Singing in the lost land)

Or just lay them on the floor nice and neatly... 8-)

I dunno... I figured what the heck. It added up to just over a dime an issue and I thought it'd be fun to own a whole bunch of one issue... even if it is Turok #1. :D

So, yeah, I'm the "lucky" one. :lol:

Wanna split them? I was going to take the chromium off and use it as wall paper in my Valiant room. I forgot to bid as it wasnt high on my list :lol: :lol:

You can slab the chromium-less Turoks and sell them for $200 each. :lol:

Funny thing was that the first thing I thought when I bid on it was, "Wow, now I finally have enough issues of something to make a hoard pic!" Then I pretty much figured there are probably plenty of guys here who have tons and tons of this, so it wouldn't be anything new. :lol:

It may seem pointless, but I think I'm going to try to fill a long box with nothing but Turok #1. Two reasons: 1) Because they're so cheap, I can afford it and 2) I won't ever say anything to my family about it so one day when I die they can all sit around, scratching their heads, trying to figure out why I thought this was a solid investment. :P

Yeah, I wanna try to do something neat. My problem is that I'm an old school collector, so the idea of messing up a comic (ever a completely worthless one) just drives me nuts. My wife tried to cut out some panels in a Sonic the Hedgehog comic once and I just about lost it.... IT'S A COMIC BOOK!!! YOU CAN'T CUT THAT! :D

Your 200 turoks a dime each is still worth more than a GM share :P

From what I've read, the V6 has a surprising amount of pep.

The V6 commador in australia is faster than the V8,cheaper, more economical to run.

But it still not a V8, I love that sound.
Or a JAgs 12.

A high-compression, double-overhead cam, 4-valve per cylinder, fuel-injected V-6 can make a surprising amount of power!

Then again, add two more cylinders and think of how much more fun you could have!!!

:wink:

Yep! "Sports cars" can have turbocharged 4-cylinder engines, that's fine.

"Muscle cars" should have V-8s in the 5.0-litre range, at least.
