No $10 figure is ever worth 10 times it's value. Ever.
This figure uses the crummy old body type as well so anyone chasing this and paying lots for it is likely getting a bonus amount of buyer's remorse at the same time.
never say never, the thing about the marketplace is this, take a mu base figures say $10, if it's the variant and limited run and production and happens to be of a popular character like a wolverine,ironman, etc the demand grows as people want the better of the 2, the distrubution dies, lines changes, new waves come out, the figure becomes harder and harder to find, unless you go online, and scalper/sellers know this and capitalize on it, now in some cases they could of paid a premium and just want to make their money back, in the case of Hot Toys figures. But that driving price, of $90-200 for a 4'' piece of plastic is because some jackass bought 1 and the sharks swam and said wow if he can sell it for that I should sell it for that, or more or less, etc. Until people stop paying crazy prices, prices wont change, the rates will be inflated, which is good for someone who say finds a full case of colored visions, but for someone that needs 1-2 figures to complete a wave you might as well buy the wave online.
