Finished My Acclaim Run
Well it took me the boards, Ebay, and FaceBook, but I finally finished my run of Valiant Acclaim comics. I had to pull out all the stops on this one. I even got Armorines #4 for $100.00 It's easily a 9.4. Good deal.
I did get the Shadowman The Good, The Bad, and the Very Ugly for $110.00 on eBay. Was super ticked off when I got it as it was a seriously flawed with at LEAST 7 spine ticks. Hate paying top-dollar on a sub-par issue.
What's cool is that I got a BUNCH of Acclaim Shadowman Vol 2 from a FB guy who lives in the UK. Very cool dude. He shipped the comics to me before I even paid him. I got a great deal and a solid Valiant fan.

Re: Finished My Acclaim Run
On a side-note, I even was able to snag a Magnus v Predator TPB 9.6 for $50.00. It has long been a goal of mine to get it.
I may and this is a stretch, start looking for the Valiant Validated Sig issues, but I doubt it as they are very hard to find.
I think my next goal is to get all of the VH1 pins as I have a half-dozen of them already.

Re: Finished My Acclaim Run
Awesome! I think I have somewhere from 90-95% of them, but some of the ones I'm missing are really tough ones (like Shadowman v3 #6, the glow-in-the-dark, and some of the Turok video game stuff)
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.
