Addendum 10/21: According to population data provided to us by AFA, there are only 4 clear bubble examples across all grades.  Only 1 example is graded higher.  It is unknown if the AFA 85 example is still clear.

 Highly sought after with clear bubble, we present Ram Man from Series 2.  A very distinct figure in the MOTU toyline, this example checks all the boxes.  “New!” logo is present in the upper corner, bubble is clear, and grade is 80 (with no inferior subgrades).  Card imperfections include a bit edgewear at midpoint and below, price tag sticker residue in the upper corner, a light vein at the hangtab, and two faint impressions along the top/left side/below the last S in the MASTERS logo.  The reverse is clean with the only blemish of note being a vein that corresponds to the impression mentioned on the front.  This one is equipped with a very hard-to-find beautiful clear bubble.  The Ram Man figure within retains a bit of his silver cuffs (completely worn off in most examples).  The tape that secures the upper sleeve has detached but the sleeve remains firmly intact.  Overall, a wonderful example, one that checks all the boxes and is amongst the finest in the hobby.  G3, Made in Taiwan.  Encapsulated by AFA (80, 80-85-85), #11795502
