ive been all over Brian Grahms website and i think that pink handmade may have come from the same place American toy co., BG has a beat example of this type,, thanks for the cudos, i havent had any good luck finding mibs in months,, i have no idea about the spotty ones, they are unique,,a couple of people are asking me if i was going to sell them, i have no idea what their worth all i know is i didnt have any in my collection, so i guess i can check them off the list, lololol,, whats also amazing is the condition, in the photo they look beat up, the blue banded ones but that look is actually the color as the surfaces are very very clean , im shocked,, i wished mib hunting was always this easy, jeepers, im glad i read Brians site a while ago , which is how i spotted them,,, bj

I hope he doesnt mind, heres the links to BG's site, very great website to learn about some rare mibs, thanks Brian.
