Anyone in the market for a Professor X or Beast MOC of those? They were awesome at the time, and everyone loved them while that was going on, but now we have something different, and some would argue better. The same thing is going to happen with these current lines. So if you really want to get the value out of your rare figures, either play with them like you want to, or sell them while the getting's good.

It's a bit of a harsh reality, but I believe it to be absolute truth. Just imagine what the figures will be like in 10 years. No one is going to want these older, then 'crappier' versions when they can have the newest.
Hard to say man, the way MU is selling.growing no telling when the line will offically die, plus it hasn't happened to marvel icons or marvel legends, they're always going to be "soft" items that have half the appeal/resale value of when you first bought it, but there will be items then appreciate and go up overtime, it;s like anything. Hell talk to the arker who paid $150 for a white suit bob reboot figure moc. shows been over for like 10-15 years and the items still command money. It'll all about supply and demand, plus as long as you have the supply, someone will have the demand.
