Id rather try to buy 4 or 5 cases of S3 and hope I get lucky. if nothing else, you could sell the COG Soldiers for a nice piece.
This is the last single packed Gears figure I need as well, and its driving me crazy. I dished out plenty for the Carmine, but I like it. I think Id hate myself if I pay that for a Marcus figure.
Heh, just checked ebay again, and you can get it there for $300 OBO. Money is the root of all evil.

its ok i got one in the end, i had to go on american ebay for it, there was two for sale at the time, one was the $300 one your describing, but if you read the item discription, the figure actually has two right hands ! lol crazy stuff ! but anyway the guy who sold the other one for sale to me only shipped within the usa, and im uk based... fortunatly he was a really nice guy and he agreed to ship it here, the dude even went half and half for insurance, tracking and shipping costs with me as i offered to pay the extra shipping and other costs in full myself but he insisted on paying half himself which i though was really decent of him, the item arrived in pristine condition, i was so pleased it came unscathed but the guy made sure it was perfectly packaged, he was a perfect seller and a really honest and understanding guy, hard to come by these days as most are out to rip you off and dont care for you as a customer, i found it amazing how i can buy one from the other side of the world and it can arrive immaculate yet ive bought from ebay members in my own country and they have arrived in complete devastation... in total i payed 150 gbp for it, a HEAVY price but im an adament collector of the gears line, i have each and every one of them so far boxed and mint and not having this one would of ruined my collection so i had to have it no matter what the price. its worth the money simply owning one, i dont know what it is but theres something really "fulfilling" about the figure, even though its just a s3 marcus fenix with a gold painted lancer it has an unknown quality that makes it special in some way.
p.s i only payed 20 gbp for anthony carmine, im still smug about that lol
