Not really, with the production numbers of retail toys, how many are really worth money?
Most TF classics, Marvel Universe and any other retail toy does not go for a high value and most are not rare. There are always exceptions to that but the norm is high supply low value.
Other toy companies produce a low quantity while having a large fan base like Glyos, Callgrim, 3a and that keeps the value increasing on most products that they do offer.
Has nothing to do with justifying, its the way how I've seen the toy market since becoming a collector.
As I said before, this should be about the hobby unless you run a toy business and make a living off this. With most hobbies don't expect a big return financially but more of a return in happiness and sanity in dealing with the every day world.
