jaisonline Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 So earlier today, I'm in a boring meeting and decided to search eBay. I tripped on this auction.http://www.ebay.com/itm/LEGO-Star-Wars-Darth-Vader-On-A-Horse-Minifig-Minifigure-/251313366074?pt=Building_Toys_US&hash=item3a8371a43a I love it. The pic and description are fabulous. "Why is Darth Vader on a horse?: One of our ToyBurg employees was recently looking at a Lord of the Rings LEGO set which contained a Ringwraith (black hood, black cape) on a horse. After looking at it for a moment she was heard to exclaim, "Oh, I didn't know Darth Vader had a horse." So naturally, we couldn't resist creating this listing so someone could own their very own Darth Vader on a horse. Feature 1: This minifigure has not been used. Feature 2: Includes everything seen in the picture above. Also includes filler blocks for when the saddle is not in use. Saddle is not included. Darth Vader rides bareback." 1 Quote
chinothegeeko Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 "Darth Vader rides bareback." Nothing else needs to be said. haha 1 Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Clearly Darth Vader was for real if he road bareback. Quote
comicblast Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Lol...That's awesome. Obviously Darth Vader has a horse he rides bareback. Quote
jaisonline Posted August 1, 2013 Author Posted August 1, 2013 I can attach pics again. Here they are. Quote
Diabolos80 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Between his leather pants and bareback riding, I bet Vader chafes something awful. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Ha, this is just so funny I actually hope someone buys it! :lol: Quote
jaisonline Posted August 1, 2013 Author Posted August 1, 2013 Ha, this is just so funny I actually hope someone buys it! I was going to but $25 is no horsing around money. If it was $10, I would have. Then I would have resisted it on eBay as "Lego Death Vader from Lord of the Rings w/ Mr. Ed. complete" 3 Quote
spener90 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 This is great! If I made more money, I might budge for the fun of it, haha. I remember listing a Tiger Woods Bobble-head with 14 barbies once. It sadly didn't sell. Nobody gets my humor... 1 Quote
Anakinisvader Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Will he force choke the horse if it doesn't listen? Whoa horsie, I find your lack of faith disturbing. Quote

spener90 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I undertand your humor. What was your price It was a while ago... but it was too much, lol. I tried $500 first just because you see things sell for ridiculous prices online occasionally, then I tried it for $100. I don't know how to sell my game the way Woods did... Quote
brickolodon Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 "Why is Darth Vader on a horse?: Do you think ostrich will be better?....??? Quote

El Guapo Posted August 3, 2013 Posted August 3, 2013 I was bored and messing with my Legos. My 5 year old put Luke's hair on the minifig I got with the summer scene. Totally reminded me of some of the lame dudes at college that always seemed to get the girls. So I made up a listing and threw it up there....my sense of humor is pretty random, so if you don't think it's funny, well then you are wrong. http://www.ebay.com/itm/300944039609?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 Okay so it's lame...but you know what? It's really late and the aforementioned five year old will be bouncing on my bed in like 5 hours... Quote

jaisonline Posted August 3, 2013 Author Posted August 3, 2013 EG, I love this listing. Great job on the description, but you need some better pictures... Let us know if you sell it. i think the blurry pic as character Quote
El Guapo Posted August 3, 2013 Posted August 3, 2013 i think the blurry pic as character I wish that was my intention but really it's just the iPads version of an extreme close up. Quote
jaisonline Posted August 3, 2013 Author Posted August 3, 2013 Now I'm jealous and will need to think of a clever yet dumb eBay Lego auction that would sell. Hmmmm. Quote
JoshTX Posted August 3, 2013 Posted August 3, 2013 So, when are they going to list the Lone Ranger in a Tie Fighter? Quote
akohns Posted August 3, 2013 Posted August 3, 2013 EG, I love this listing. Great job on the description, but you need some better pictures... Let us know if you sell it. Actually I think the photos are perfect just the way they are. They remind me of the Myspace profile selfies taken in the mirror taken my Chets everywhere. Quote
