Great Point Rob. Was going to respond with something similar...but you beat me to it, and included the leg work 👍. Other "rarities" within the set also fall into this hobby mystery, as they really aren't all that rare. The x factor may have more to do with how often they come up for sale/auction than how scarce they truly are?
