Guys I have been thinking about this for awhile about these figures. My question is has anyone ever taken the final step and destroyed one of these figures?
I know a few would like to destroy Toni himself (in a nice way )
I have a lovely carded Han large head which I bought on e-bay around 4 years ago. I am not sure but I think I paid around £200 for it. The figure is also graded and I felt really happy at the time I finally got a carded Han.
I now realise while I was bidding on it you guys had probably spotted it as a Toni. And yes I was another victim of his scam. It's easy now to say people should research before buying but it caught alot of us.
I had absolutely no idea about this until I joined this forum.
The figure I bought came from England and from what I remember it stated it was a general mills. To me it was just a carded Han figure. There's no doubt people are still buying these unsuspectedly and have no idea.
Has anyone ever taken the final step and destroyed one of these figures or more?
The figure I have it means nothing to me now I don't even know if the figure itself came from someones loose mint collection that he bought from e-bay.
I do feel like selling it back on e-bay with full disclosure of what it is and looking for a original Han.
But then I am thinking am I just keeping the cycle of these figures going? I don't know? Whoever buys it could then sell it on again and rip someone else off.
Or should I care because I don't own it anymore?
What ever anyone does with there own figures is not my business because it's yours to do what you please. And I don't blame anyone not wanting to lose money on them. I am just curious to know has anyone smashed one of these up or thought about it? I am beginning to feel like putting a claw hammer though mine. But deep down I know I am losing £200 which is a hell of alot of money to me. Maybe I still don't really hate it enough to put it out of circulation.
