I don't agree that in 30-40 years these things will be worth what the toys of the 60's and 70's are worth today. back then there was no such thing as collectors. No one kept anything in the box toys were meant to be played with so they were. That's why there worth so much in good condition. Starting with the 90's people started holding on to everything MOC. Take the SW POTF line. Big hype and prices out of the gate and now you can't give them away. There making too many MU figs and we are keeping them MOC so they will never be as rare as out parents toys.

I'm not suggesting they will be worth 1000's or millions later on but there's a greater chance they will enhance in value the longer they stay MOC, as the supply goes down and the demand goes up. But honestly there's only certain figures really commanding $$ sdcc, mail away, mandarin , vision and regular warpath, masterworks, and the gigantic battle sets. Would love to find a peg full of colored visions, I'd buy em all.
