Amos Toys and James Jarvis Presents the Last Stash Today

Amos Toys is opening up their Stash to the general public for the last time. Over the years Amos and Silas have built a stash which is made up of long sold out figures and products that they have conscientiously kept aside. The Stash contains examples of all Amos classics, and some Silas Specials too, all in limited quantity. These were kept specifically for their own store. When the Stash is empty then that is it! The figures are gone forever.

Because of the scarce nature of these figures, and a thriving secondary market, they realize that some of these items have a much higher value than the original retail price. And considering they have held onto and stored these figures for a long period (some of them 8 years), the prices have been increased accordingly. They are charging an amount that will discourage speculative buying for resell purposes, yet will be under what these items would probably fetch on the open market. Therefore, hopefully real collectors will have access to these at a price that is fair considering the circumstances of sale.

The final stock includes many favorites such as King Ken, The WOP Policeman, Nokia figures, Leon figures, Evil Martin etc. Once these figures have gone, then that is it. THIS IS THE LAST OF THEM! Lots of figures are already sold out, but they’ve still got this cool World of Pain Kubrick set (below). Unfortunately, the US dollar is weak enough that many of these Jarvis figures are going to hit hard in the wallet. Nonetheless, if you need to fill in gaps in your collection, this is looking like your last shot.

THEIR RULES: No more than one figure per color per customer. If you attempt to buy more than one of a color we will cancel all of your orders. If at any time in the near future we have reason to suspect that a Store Member is trying to sell any recently purchased item, by any means, for speculative profit then we will permanently revoke their membership. This is not a threat. We will do this! Re-selling is unfair to those who genuinely want to collect the figures.
