They may have shot themselves in the proverbial foot.
I've never gotten less than $50 for one of those sets.
It may be ugly, but it's not a *bad* set. And besides,
I thought the ugliest set ever would have to be one of
the vaunted Time Losers monstrosities (except the ship
and maybe the big base--great for parts).

I was looking because I discovered one last MIB Crossbone Clipper hiding in
my closet (and one last Redbeard Runner and one last Armada Flagship). Why
in the world people bid so much for them is a mystery I'll never understand.
TimeTwisters was perhaps the worst series of all time, but having bought a
half dozen TimeTrains for a paltry $5 each at Legoland, I like them better
than my half-dozen $15 Crossbone Clippers. :-)
