Toys as an invmestment be it old toys from the 20's-30's, you toys as a kid from the 70's-00's or the toys just being released, what do you feel are the best investments, in the form of over all companies, toy lines, characters.

What personal items do you own that you feel over time could be worth a bundle or do you have figures already that over time have shown investment in the form of ebay pricing or just general banter amongst collectors. Which toys are you looking for that maybe investments either for yourself as a collector or trade bait or other?

I think companies like HOTTOYS,3A and SideShowCollectables show the most promise for overall investment return and appreciation over time. Due to limited quantaties made and overall purchase price being greatly higher then general store peg toys. Limited edition versions to go with colored variants and 1/1 scale items are what in 20 years could be and more than likely will be driving up high prices on the online Market.

As for my own collection, I have 1 IM Hottoys figure that will be kept close to heart for a long time, and I have currently a few sdcc MU and the Mandarin wave Moc, same with my MU blue and yellow Goliath and my MU sentinel, some of it is just due to display room though but some I may never open. As fas as pieces to aquire, the Marvel sub figures for MU and ComicCon figures and some hot toys pieces are tops on my list of wants, also some Marvel Legends Variants/rare items such as giantman Baf, series 1 stealth ironman,faceoffs and destroyer variant, and some movie concept stuff. would love to hear what you guys/girls think.
