Anyways, if time has answered anything, from g1 transformers to voltron, it takes YEARS to get that so called sweet value for your figure. Of course, you better damn well hope theres nostalgia for it or your screwed. Im some cases it doesnt matter if a toy is rare, it just doesnt have the value down the line. The truth is, MU doesnt have the widespread appeal that 80s or 90s or whatever toy lines did, where thousands of people were lining up to grab these things. Chances are when this line gets cancelled in like 3 years(please no) we will definitly see some change in value. Us collectors now will most likely be the ones pining for these things 20 years from now.

G1 Transformers were getting out of control price wise 10 years ago. Now that they have reissued almost all of them the price has fallen big time. I didn't care to much for that. Re-issues kill the vintage market.
