Found a spelling mistake on the 2007 Star Wars Battle Pack Jedi Vs. Darth Sidious. It's spelled correctly on the front, but on the back Darth Sidious is spelled Darth Sidous. I have an unopened package and wonder if anyone else has any insight of the worth of such package. I have seen a couple on Ebay but no mention of the mispelling and the price doesn't reflect it either. Any help would be good...thanks!

It is only worth $19.99 maybe less.

Spelling errors do not add any value to such an item.

Yeah spelling errors are pretty common in toy packaging. Like the DCIH Gotham city 6 pack on the back there was a sticker over Catwoman's description that read 'expert thief' under the sticker it read 'expert theif'. So it happens a lot, the coverup stickers are a little rarer but still not enough to warrant a higher price. Now if it was say a Han Solo package with Darth Sidious packaged in there instead that would most likely raise the price a bit, though I'm not aware of such a figure package mishap.

That too happens from time to time, but even that doesn't put too much of a premium on the item.

What are you guys talking about? That typo makes this figure worth at least $500,000 on the secondary market.

The value of error packaging is a very quirky thing. Some think that due to the uniqueness that the item should be worth more, while others see this as a flaw, and think it should be worth less. But, much like any other item on the market, the value is only as high as the next person is willing to spend. So, with that said, the only true way to find out the value of your error card is to list it as such on places like eBay at a low starting cost, and see how high it goes. If your intentions are to sell it, you lose nothing in the end.

More importantly, is there a corrected version? If not and this is a mistake on every single one of these, then you will see no difference in value.
