I just finished an historic eBay battle (yes, I know there's no such thing as an historic eBay battle) with some unlucky soul who thought his/her dedication to collecting Real Ghostbusters figures exceeded mine. The price was at $64.01 for the last 5 minutes, which was the total for all 5 Fright Features figures MOC, and I was in the lead. Then, with less than 10 seconds left, someone put down $100 as their max bid.

I, however, had put down $151.55, so I won all 5 of these figures for almost exactly $20 a piece (and $50 under my max bid). I'm definitely very happy right now. I've been looking for these figures for a very long time, and have an eBay search for them saved so I get email alerts whenever someone lists anything "fright features". But to get them all MOC in one fell swoop is fantastic. I'm sad I didn't get them for the absurd price I got the Super Fright Features, but these figures are older and carry significantly more weight to me. As kids, my brothers and I had Egon, Peter and Ray, but they were broken so fast, and their pieces lost so quickly, that I hardly remember them. My cousin (the same cousin who had Ecto-500) had the Winston, and I always remember wanting him too.

Now, my wait is over, and my RGB collection grows steadily ever larger.
