    (insert jaw-dropping emoticon here) Am I correct that this is a rare pattern in copper, or do I have to hand out another "I Made Gonfunko Feel Like An Idiot" (IMGFLAI) award?

    I'd have to see it in person to make any kinda judgment.....looks AT at first glance.
    Family, kids, coins, sports (playing not watching), jet skiing, wakeboarding, Big Air....no one ever got hurt in the air....its the sudden stop that hurts. I hate Hurricane Sandy. I hate FEMA and i hate the blasted insurance companies.

    Probably! Similar to the individual that posted the pics.

    Obviously AT - None of the services will grade it......better sell it to me before you have to blow it out wholesale....

    By the way, if it wasn't copper, I would have no interest......imageimage
