Actually when those sdcc pieces are already going for quite a decent amount, i am not too surprised with the manda prices. Some of the pieces were sold/distributed in japan in the most obscure of ways which are hardly available to overseas collectors. To even see them popping up on manda will be rather rare, as brobles put it 'nice to be able to see what some if these look like'. Personally I think this line does deserve its premium status. The heritage, appeal, folks involved, making, paint-job, rarity, release pace, distribution etc all contrived to make it highly coveted along with bragging rights. Knowing it is pretty much hopeless or too expensive to stay complete, i just hope to be able to continue to pick some pieces up whenever chances appear at not too far retail. I have this! Luckily it is pretty affordable
speaking of manda,..damn, someone dropped 685+ shipping on that powder blue croc. must be nice to have that disposable coin laying around.
Yeah the TO color way is so damn good!! I know that one would have fit right in at your house...mine too
This is my single likeness of Take Shit... Not counting his homie Skullhead. Not of the Fink variety, but it counts.

The uncut Fink Shit is a 98 version that I stumbled on a Japanese auction. It is red in color like the O.G. painted version. It does look orange in my pic. I couldn't believe it. A true holy grail for me. I was so nervous that week hoping that I would get it but not knowing how many people were after it. I still can't believe it. I wish the head was also uncut but still happy to have this in my collection. 98 Brown Fink Shit. This is dark brown it almost looks black sitting on the shelf. 98 Fink Shit Brown 001 by mildew180, on Flickr
the holy grail of fink shits, and uncut too - glad you got this jason! an awesome sight to see all the others lined up next to each other.
You outbid a lot of people by a large margin on that one. Regardless the dark brown from Scott? is amazing. I love brown vinyl.
I'm guessing the brown one was the one on eBay. From the collection of a board member who passed away.
Totally agree. There are a lot more unpainted (and also uncut) Finks out there then people realize...but all in all the painted ones have the character and depth (plus extra artistry from Hirota).
What a truly phenomenal shelf and level of dedication Next year I'd love to work on acquiring a painted release myself!
