That's probably closer to the truth. I forget how many look at this as speculative investing. I kinda wonder if that's part of the reason for some of the retro o-ring backlash. I think there's an almost unconscious concern for value with this stuff for a lot of collectors.

I might bro lemme check this weekend. I gotta have that droid I think.
I think it?s a very blatant and loud come right for the value of their vintage stuff for some collectors. Some think it?s the highest value thing they have (maybe look at a 401k? or real estate? different topic though?) and are panicked. However there is another group that is making the current o rings sell out. It will be a never ending debate.

I tell people all the time if you're investing and not collecting, you're fucking up. Action figures are not a sound financial decision. Hasbro makes no money on consumer investment beyond the initial purchase- it always wants to sell more toys. So nothing is sacred in that regard.

I think some people are selling their stuff because they need the money, too.
Like I'm even at the point where I look at my boxed Flagg that survived two floods rotting in the garage and go "maybe it's time?" I have and likely never will have a place to put the damn thing. Same with all my Clone Wars 3.75 vehicles, playsets, etc. it just hurts to look at my Battle of Christopholis set and Arena and Gunship and MTT and Starspeeder and whatnot and go..."Dammit, I really have no place for them...but...". |

this 26 dollar boba fett is not a 26 dollar figure.
there's so much air in this box. weapons are separated in three white tissue paper pouches. there's nothing for these stormtrooper heads to rest on other than the ground (as an accessory they dont make sense. AND inexplicably they have neck ball pegs.) take these stupid helmets, take the stupid jet pack effects, and it's a 13 dollar figure. oh my god. if it didnt have soft goods cape thing i think i'd be pretty pissed. i was dreading this figure coming, honestly. im not surprised how im not really thrilled with the value/cost of it. the first positive thing i can think of is i can replace the super rotj fett figure i keep on my tv stand in my bedroom with it and put that one at my work desk for something cool to look at all day long and it's standing next to my first release walmart mando/baby yoda figures. the second positive, is i made the right choice not preordering the other 26 dollar fett figure.
