Breaking Up Is Hard to Do (1 Viewer)

[Der Alte Fritz]

It always saddens me when I see various Trophy sets being broken up with the individual pieces being sold separately on eBay.

For example, the other day I saw one of the Roarkes Drift Hospital figures, the 24th Regt soldier firing upwards towards the roof, offered as one figure. Durnford's Last Stand and the Rocket Troop have been broken along with many of the other AZW vignettes.

I just wish that sellers wouldn't do this to the various Trophy sets.

I agree with you. One problem sellers have with retired companies is sometimes its hard to know what goes with what set. Not sure that’s what happened here, but who knows.
For companies like trophy, this forum is so valuable in asking about contents of sets.

I would love to add Trophy sets to my collection but it seems that individual unboxed items are being offered on ebay for the price of whole sets, or at such a high price nobody is bidding and they just appear time and time again.

I don't mind buying broken sets because over time you can put the whole set together, possibly at a price cheaper than if you purchased the whole set originally. All you need is a little patience.
