So I was surfing facebook tonight and I saw this posted on one of the groups here.

Now, this has to be one of the DK books. But I wonder what people they have writing these books. Can you imagine the thought process.
Luke “Hey, I am adding the Solid Gold c-3po to the book on page 13”
Han “What do you think that is worth?”
Luke “Oh, I do not know? maybe 300. What do you think?”
Han “Nah, that is too much. They will think we are crazy. I am gonna put $200”
How about like $20,000 after you threw this on an auction. I wonder, maybe even higher. What do you think.
Do any of you know what book this is from? I looked in mine and I cannot find it.

I will be adding this figure to the Price Guide shortly. I will also be adding the Ferrari figures as well. However, this figure is going to go up in price shortly. This figure is rare, easily damaged and very hard to find. On top of that, it is really nice looking.
If I was Lego, I would have given him a blue helmet, but that is just me. I love his Barcelona face and it is difficult to even tell that his torso is a sticker.
Nothing special on his back printing, as it is a plain torso with blue arms. Expect to pay 30 – 40 bucks for this figure in excellent condition and be happy when you find one.
This figure come in only one set. The Lego 8374 set. I found this one over on eBay here.

Update: The map takes a second to show up, so please be patient. The map is in the middle of the page and it works best on a computer.
Do you have a Mr Gold? If so, add yourself to the registry and get your historical record of having Mr Gold. See details below. About 10 have been added today.
Lego Mr Gold Prices have been skyrocketing over the past few months. I am pretty sure that they are all sitting in peoples collections and now the amount on the market is getting scarce. A quick look at eBay shows you that they are going for alot now. I found three worldwide on eBay and they are not cheap. You can see them here. I would get yours while you still can. See below for the ones that I found.
Last week, I went to the lego site to print out my Mr Gold Diploma for my son and I could not find the Lego site to print it out anywhere on the internet. I looked everywhere and I could not find it anywhere at all? I tried different links and still no hits. It appears that Lego has removed the site and replaced it with the Simpsons. They also removed the ability to track the Mr. Gold figures that have been found and the ability to register your figure if you did not already. Eek.
I had saved and old Diploma, so I was OK, but I thought what about all of the other people that have not registered theirs yet. Also, I always liked looking to see how many people were registered and seeing how many of these have been found. I decided to take all the inforamtion that I saved the last time I went to the site and recreate the Interactive Mr Gold map and keep a registry here.
Please see above an interactive recreation of the map before Lego pulled it down. I will continue to update as people let me know about more of these. Please click on the gold bubble to see the images for the figures found in that country. I just have one now, but more will come.
I had saved all of the data from last year and I decided to create a map of what has been found so far so that we all have a reference.
Additionally, it you send me an email to shawn@minifigpriceguide.com with the following in it, I will post yours to this page and add you to the count as a sudo registry of found figures and proof that you have one. This will serve as a dated history in case you ever want to prove when you obtained this figure and you are trying to sell it. You may also contact me through this page as well. http://minifigpriceguide.com/wordpress/contact-us/
The email should include
See below for an example of what I am looking for.
I will then add this to this page. This page is also directly clickable from the map. As we get a few more of these, I will break this page up by country.
http://minifigpriceguide.com/wordpress/lego-mr-gold-images/
And you will have your history.
Finally, if you need it, here is a Diploma that you can fill out and add your name to hang on the wall.
Also, here is the last map as shown on the Lego site.
Mr Gold Bios
Here is a wonderfull article about how the registration proecess worked before Lego pulled down the site. The registration no longer works, so do not bother trying. However, the article did a nice job of showing how it did work.

I though that this was an interesting item. This was released several years ago in 2008 when the video game was released. I have only seen a few of these and they are pretty rare.
It looks like it came with three keychains. Penguin, Mr Freeze and Two Face. This particular one is for sale by this eBay user here.
Here is the back.
And here are a few close ups of the keychains that came with is.
You can see this item for sale on eBay here. I actually just found a second one of these as well with different minifigures. Interesting? I wonder if the figures were just random?
