Definitely be worth alot down the road, heck theyll even be worth alot in the near future. These collectibles sell out fast, and a Chicago bears dual pack with lach and butkus? Definitely going to sell out. Although, im sure there are going to be plenty of speculators who are buying these up just to resell for profit, what a shame.

Yeah, that's always the case with collectibles, especially with limited run stuff. There is always someone out there buying them up so they can horde the market and dictate the price......all about the $$$$$$$$ as are most things in life unfortunately.

I always said the guy must have had a third leg to be able to stop on a dime and make the cuts he did......a freaking mini tripod.....

if do not live in chicago, you go to any "card and sports show" in your local town, uually can get them for list there, usually at last one dealer buys 10+ cases of the whole set( mcfarlane gives them a discount to do this) and they piecemeal the sets at shows- so in oter parts of the country they go for list..i've alays gotten them for that here locally.

Btw k-mann- haven't seen a briggs one- figure its a "repaint" of another figure, which figure did they use for it?

Not sure DB, I can't seem to find the website I was on yesterday but it was a SuperBowl set with him rushing/tackling Manning and they also sold it separately.

No it definitely is not that as the Urlacher figure if IIRC is laying out in the air in that set. The Briggs figure is in a rushing pose with both arms outreached to grab Manning who is in a throwing posture.

Here's a guy on Ebay that does custom figures. This is not the Briggs that I saw on the other website but it's still not bad.
