Faker on rare 12-Back card

“Skelly Arms” figure variant

 

Faker on 12-back card is, by far, his most difficult release to find (much rarer than the 8-Back release).  This one takes it a step further and encroaches into unicorn territory – it’s the ultra-rare “Skelly Arms” variant on 12-Back card. Instead of Faker’s normal arms, this one is actually equipped with Skeletor’s arms.  Advanced MOTU collectors are all too familiar with this one and have been waited for quite some time for it to finally surface.  Check out the unique hang tab!  The front of the card looks great with only limited flaws.  The reverse exhibits several veins throughout that are visible in the accompanying photos.  Otherwise, the back of the card is very clean and quite a bit whiter than most 12-Backs.  The bubble, although yellowed, retains perfect form and is firmly attached to the card.  The “Skelly Arms” figure within looks amazing!  An awesome piece that has eluded the most advanced MOTU collectors. G2, Made in Taiwan.  Encapsulated by AFA (80+y, 80-85-85), #11905990
