Last weekend was going through my collection. I came across some of my figures and thought I would add them to the display in the office. Came across this 1986 Viper with the Cobra Logo pressed on 2 times. I don't have any plans on selling it cause it is a factory error, but if I would have to sell him. Do you think the double print logo would hurt or help the value of the figure. Never seen or heard of a figure with this issue. Thanks for your input

Those types of random mistakes usually lower value if anything. It's not a "Red Star on Cobra cardback" type of thing.

A very loose rule of thumb:
variant = more valuable defect = less valuable Obviously a rule with plenty of exceptions, like upside down pennies and whatnot. But a good way to form default expectations in the absence of better info. |

Thanks for the your thoughts but I had a few people pm with higher then average offers for this error figure. So I would have to say it's in the eye of each collector if something like this is worth more or less. Like I said in the original post, it's an odd ball and I'm keeping it in the collection
