And then some stickers from Hellbat, and a few little cards, and free magnets, etc.

My favorite haul, that you saw in the first pic tho -

BROWNING. I never ever see these loose. It has a broken piece on one side of his inner shoulder, and on his foot, that don't really affect much, but you have to aware of when playing with it. Has both fists. I paid $90 for it, which I think was a little too much for him loose and with only fists, and the few broken spots, but I just never ever see him besides boxed for $500-$700. I splurged as a gift to myself  

I think overall the prices and trades were pretty fair, the targetmaster prices weren't anything special, but I saved on having to dick with eBay, plus shipped expenses, so I got them anyway

sorry about the Mix-up with the Sketches dude , I was such in a rush and people asking me for sketches just as IDW was packing up, I guess that's maybe why Denny started charging for sketches, just so maybe people would just stop asking for them. I did'nt even know you got charged until I finished and he handed me the cash, I dont usually charge for sketches, I figure it's the least I can do for all the support through out the years I've been doing TF comics. anyway, it was a great show and it's always a pleasure to see you guys.
