(...) I am sure anybody willing to pay that much for it knows exaclty what it is - and I think it would be safe to say that they are Bionicle freaks.

(...) I have seen it sell for $150 two different times, and over $100 more than a few times. Crazy? Yup. But Lego/TRU only gave 6 of them to each TRU... and thats IF the TRU got it (here in San Diego there was only 2 stores that got them at all). (...) (20 years ago, 31-Aug-04, to lugnet.market.auction)
