Yeah, I see what you're saying. I do want him badly, but there's always another copy out there. Sadly....One other did pass by about five months ago for 32.00! I was like: DANGIT. Give me a break!
I had my paws on the Rockin' Rockets Booster years ago. Bought him for 4.00...at least I think I did. It's been a long time. Never saw the Star Command version. Wish I did!
So that's where they got the Mira! I bought one at a garage sale way back when. I was about to say, I never really saw a Mint Mira around those parts.

I bought mine for what was then 15$ <.<... hey... it was 2002, my Booster hype was at it's earliest stage!. Plus I was on a trip and if he had costed 30 I would have payed it... when you're traveling you relax about everythings!
it's still unopened and the placticpackaging is all yellow... I see some small white small furball inside... I THINK IT's GROWING FUNGUS!!! (nooooooo!!!!). I am SO opening this thing this year. I'll save it for December, not for all the gift things or costumes or any of what people would think, but because I save everything for happier times (like buy a video game and don't play it until then), that way when I remember the time that I opened it I will think of joy for sure.
"Ah , I remember when I finally opened Booster, it was Christmas!, the good times!. <3"
I'm also saving a canson bristol pad for December, OH YEAS.
So eez, you always on the look out for these toys?, if you ever run into an auction for any Booster for a decent price let me know, k thanks?.
Right now there is one going for 50+ dollars on ebay. I just can't afford that :c
EDITZOR: afte looking at the toy more carefully I think it could also be a tiny ball of spider web, HERE IS TO HOPING IT'S JUST THAT!,

www.vks-shop.de/merchandising/figuren/500730941413ee752.phpWell...here's the international site with Booster. Honestly, I don't understand a lick of German-I think-so if you could get someone to translate this, and if the site does indeed do international shipping, I think this is pretty good! Course, I don't know if they don't ship outside Europe, or if the shipping is going to hammer you down hard. I'd say this would have to be a last resort I'll continue to look, and hopefully something will pop on eBay OHNOEZ! Here's to the spider web! I had fungus once in a Star Wars toy...IT WAS DURGE! DURGE! I was so mad! D<

Thanks eez!, I would have bought this one. It says that is Rockin' Rockets, but I'm sure it's Star Command Booster ;p I'm probably gonna skip the German web site, I don't know much about it and it's always a good idea to be careful when giving your credit card number, unless they take paypal then the only risk is loosing the money that was sent to them. I tried altavista translation but it's still hard to understand, Be sure though, that I am VERY tempted to buy it there!

ARHGHRHRH! I'm still waiting for the guy to take my money and ship the figure >_>
The suspense is killing me!
Oh, yeah...there are some items on right now. XR, Buzz, Warp, Mira, and so forth separately. If anyone's interested in buying a BLoSC figure, I can send them a link if they desire

I hope you get it soon, I know what it's like to wait long for a package you really want.
The seller you bought zurg from only has one negative and 526 positives. So I wouldn't worry much.
I saw the wrapped mira on ebay and it had the mc Donald's M, so I guess I was misinformed about the coca - cola thing...
which is weird because I do remember seeing an ad some years ago o .O, I never actually saw what the figures look like though.

I'm not worried....and I hope I don't have to be. He's just taking his time. The seller accepted it today, so maybe in four days? If I'm lucky Now that I think about it, I want a Norbert Klerm action figure just so I can torch it Mira was only available in the great Down Under...or so that seller says. Wow. No wonder I got confused when I first saw it!

"not Buzz Lightyear but apparently in the movie somewhere"
Frankly I'm offended. :<
We-e-ell, I wouldn't use the McDonald's one for a reference or anything. He's kinda deformed looking. |D; Misshapen head. Also, his head's on a spring, which kinda bugs me. And the proportions are way off, tiny helmet, big feet, ew.
The remote-controlled one I have is much, much better. If you can get one of those, do so. There are a few picky details off on the body and his expression is kinda goofy, but he's really on-model. Better than some of the animation in the show, anyway (XR NO HAVE SQUARE MOUTH PLZ). And the details are great, he has all the lines on his arms and legs, even. The proportions seem right... the head might be a tad too big, just a little, but otherwise I think he looks good.
...lol, "very thin yellow pencil head"
it's true akshualy

yeah, the lady has no idea of what she is selling, I mean, the name is RIGHT THERE ON THE FREAKING PICTURE SHE POSTED. I'm gonna skip this then, she is also asking way too much money: 4 dollars the toy (usually go for 1...) and a ridculous 5 dollars for shipping (they usually ask 2.50). The price tag on the remote xr kinda makes me cry. If only I were rich... or at least if I didn't have to pay too much for the shipping. But the one available is in Hong Kong, which means they'll open it in customs (as a sure thing). Total price I would have to pay would be 250-300 bucks ;_;.... I'm gonna have to make my own xr, all the geometric precision, BOY!, sounds easy and fun...
