Ultimate Toy Box Question

Hi Guys,

Found a used copy and wanted to make sure it is not an import. For anyone who owns a copy...can you please give the UPC code...Anyway, how can I tell if it is an import and even worse, a bootleg. I can't find a new copy anywhere....guess it is OOP? Anyone heard of a re-release anytime soon?

Just curious....what's a fair price to pay for a used copy in good condition.

Thanks

Hope that helps.

Chances are, if you bought it off eBay, and it came from Asia, then it's a bootleg.
Hopefully not, in your case.

I paid $35 for a good used copy about a year and a half ago.

Right now you won't get it for less than $60-70. A legit copy has a shiny silver box and a clear plastic box that goes over it and it has pictures of Woody, Buzz and the cowgirl. Give us a link, maybe we can help

Here's an old thread discussing the Ulitmate Toy Box . Unfortunately, the pics might have been taken down but soe of the discussion might help.

Actually I found it in a used dvd store. They are asking $35.00 for it. I think that it is a very fair price...if its a legit copy and not an import.

if that's a legit copy that's a great price. You could probably flip it on half.com for about $75 or so with no trouble at all.

I'd check the condition of the discs and to be sure all the inserts are there. Disc 1 and Disc 2 has it's own chapter list insert and Disc 3 had 2 inserts (booklet & navigation map).

Sounds like it might be a good find if all is in good condition.

It's a great set and it wasn't much less than $35 new, so that's a steal if it's in good shape.

I found my Fantasia box set in a used store for $30 earlier this year. I made sure to pick up the Toy Story box the week it was released.

When I started lurking in the laserdisc forums a few years back, one of the things I learned from that hobby was: "If you see it, get it." Cause you'll probably never see it again.
