(Backstory) Me and a friend were having a conversation about this minor variety. He says to me the most I would pay for it if I found one is $35 He goes to the local flea market's/LCS as usual and has his eye on some benji's. Looks them through and spotted one! Hah he gave me a call as soon as it happened. He payed $35 for it so I would say there is not much meat left on the bone but he is gonna keep it for a while. I feel accomplished as I have been teaching him about variety's! Almost like a student ;)

    Nice find... does not 'appear' to be FBL....Always fun to cherry pick... (I assume it was not labeled as such)...Cheers, RickO
