I would have voted for Harbinger 8 if I did not already have a copy.

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
Just saying that if someone has a Harbinger Wars #3 Variant I would trade a SM Gold for it..

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
I'm not sure how Rafael Grampa feels about being called Grandpa. Unless there's a SM#5 elderly variant that I've missed

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
My personal want is an X-O 15 Kotaki Printing Error. It's the only book printed before this year that I don't have yet. There are a few variants this year I'm still tracking down.

No Rai mask error option?
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
It will be interesting to see how this list changes down the road.
There are a few books that could really zoom in price if things fall the right way.

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
Unity Gold is harder to find than Shadowman gold. It's always been the toughest, in my experience.

I debated that actually, and you are likely correct. Maybe next poll...nycjadie wrote:Unity Gold is harder to find than Shadowman gold. It's always been the toughest, in my experience.

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
The X-O Manowar #15 (Kotakai 1:50) error is very elusive. Does anyone knows how many of them are out there?

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
The X-O Manowar #15 Kotakai (non-error) was the hardest one for me to track down.
Though I personally like the Eternal Warrior #5 (Mack) cover the best

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
Ninjak #1 (LaRosa Gold) appears to be leaning at the tape in the race for expensive HTF VEI 9.8 slabs! A sale this past weekend for $350; and before that one sold for $415!

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
I also think the Archer & Armstrong #10 1:50 is a hard to get.

Re: Most desired VEI Variant
XO 15 and Bloodshot 3 1:20 took me months and months to get. In fact, X-O 15 inspired me to get a sub with Ed.
Shadowman Black might be a contender on this list, as might Unity 2 and 5 (whatever the most limited versions are, maybe 1:125).
