Anyone know what this is? I wondered if it’s a Treebeard figure from the old Heritage range, but have never seen a picture of the actual figure:

No idea sorry.

No, I’ve never seen such an ugly and badly painted tree-figure. It’s horrible. And that price … ???

I think the price merely reflects its rarity, and makes me suppose that the seller at least knows what it is, even if the rest of us have no idea……

I don’t understand and I cannot imagine, who’ll be ready to buy such a ugly figure

well, I don’t know for this one but as the actual final owner of the previous M16 in blister being sold I can attest it is genuine, I analysed it with magnifiers to check details without opening blister. and even the blister and sticker seem authentic (and authenticallly old with some mold fragrance lol)

Postage is always the killer buying anything from the US these days – highest P&P costs on the planet! Also, the set is far from complete – about half the figures are missing:-

In fact it’s outrageous that the seller should describe it as “mint”.

Why do you write it is not complete?
Do you not see all pictures of this auction?
the box contains 29 minis (30 if you count the horse also)
and all figures are there. There are two layers of foam.

…some sligthly bend spears, but looks fine to me,
I wonder.

You’re quite right, Master H. I only glanced at it, and didn’t notice there were additional pictures. Probably because I’m getting old and and my brain doesn’t work properly any more (assuming that it ever did, which Mrs B. doubts). I shall go and have a lie down.

I think this seller has been selling for daft prices for some time now – seems that he/she is changing tactics by offering them as a multiple listing

first he/she has to find a buyer spending the money for such prices…

Indeed, I myself have picked up same figures from other sellers at a fraction of the price that this seller is trying to sell them for (and auctions were concurrent). I think also that this is one of those sellers that appears to sell many items of different sorts so probably doesn’t have a clue as to what the actual worth of the Mithril figures are
