.... or it's real? I was surfing on ebay and found that Toywiz is selling cog s3 figure for 125$ + shipping... is this a mistake or this figure value is greater than carmine. ,,,,or ... maybe it's carmine and was a mistake from the seller.
one think is sure, i think more than this auction is for people that doesnt know a lot about figures ... its easy to be mixed with a carmine figure.. if they done that just to get an unexperienced buyer then its not nice at all from them
here the link http://cgi.ebay.ca/Gears-War-NECA-Series-3-Action-Figure-COG-Soldier-/370416118357?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item563e856a55
just some lines before i have A carmine auction that starts at 40$ ...lol funny and unreal
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Gears-War-ANTHONY-CARMINE-Rare-SDCC-2008-Mint-/190426923626?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5654426a
if mods think that i was not supposed to add ebay links here pls delete them but one of the reasons is to prevent future buyers to purchase this overpriced cog s3 figure ... cya
Carmine won't sell for 40 lol. Cog soldier s3 can be found for about 30 bucks buy it now on ebay/amazon :)

It's toywiz, go to their site, it's an entire rip-off. Series 5 is like $200, RAAM VS Kim is like $80. BULL****!
yeah you only want to buy when toywiz when items first come out. For example, when I got my series 3 preordered it was cheaper than anywhere else AND I got my gold lancer Marcus ;-D I think I only paid like 50 bucks for the whole series.

ToyWiz, in itself, is a HUGE joke. Highest prices anywhere Ive ever looked. And someone else always has what they have, you just might have to dig a little. The 12" kratos is $200 on there, I got it for $55 on eBay.
And they advertise their A. Carmine as 'damaged package, mint contents!' for $250. They must be selling to baseheads. or maybe they ARE the baseheads.

Yea agree with everyone. They're a rip off. I'm reluctant to buy ANYTHING from toywiz.

ToyWiz functions just like E-bay scalpers.
They rip anyone who buys from them a new one.
I don't like wasting my money on bloated prices when I get it somewhere else for a much better price.

I've gotten most of what Toy Wiz sell (in terms of Gears) for a lot cheaper.

ToyWiz are nothing but a bunch of scalpers. You can see that anything that is remotely worthy of retaining any collecting value has been tremendously marked up. I purchased from them way before the Neca Gears figures caught on. After Series 1, they raised their prices to the stratosphere. Avoid this dealer like the plague.
