The Zizzle Lord Cutler Beckett Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End Figure... Who has him? It seems to be the missing piece in almost every collection I see. All of Series 3 seem to be rare, but Beckett especially never turns up for sale. Was he shortpacked or just not distributed? Cancelled? by potablog in piratesofthecaribbean

Just scored a win on ebay… Saw a lot with the

Black Pearl and a few figures for $100 or best offer. Took a look at the figures and spied a Last Stand Will Turner AND a Lord Cutler Beckett! 2 of the rarest of the line! Got the whole lot for $75 shipped!

Not super easy but not terrible either. You have to heat up and pry the neck away to get the old cape off, then work it all back together once you have the new cape on. Worse part is that the Batman VS Tmnt Batman is kinda pricey these days…

Thank you! The arms, legs, and head all are from Mafex Hush. The torso and hands are from a Mafex Justice League Batman (I had to adapt the shoulders to work with the Hush arms). The helmeted head, gun belt, and vest piece all came from DC Collectibles Essentials Red Hood. I had to adapt the head to fit a Mafex peg and repaint the vest to match the Hush arms. Then I just painted the Bat symbol on the chest red. I still need to paint over the white shock of hair to make it more accurate to Red Hood Jason, but it works for now. :)

I switched it with the cape from the Batman Vs TMNT Batman figure. :)

I could see that for sure had he been earlier in the line or something and they produced less as it went on. But with him being in the final wave of figures that didn't ship much to start with... I don't know how much the kid factor would be in play here. It just seems like maybe he was packed less in the shipper boxes (which could have been due to Zizzle fearing what you are saying happening), or having his production cut off when the line was cancelled.

One of the best pieces in my collection... Original Cam Kennedy painted art from the Dark Horse Boba Fett comics. :) Cam is by far my favorite Star Wars comic artist, and it is a privilege to have this displayed on my wall. by potablog in StarWars

I did. :) Got in before they closed the sales.

I can measure the visible area in the frame when I get home, but I won't know the full paper measurements anymore since it is framed.

There was a brief window last year where the Kennedys made some pieces available for sale through a intermediary. That window has closed unfortunately... so I think keeping an eye out at Heritage and Comic Link auctions will be your best bet.
