Instant Kenner Collection

[Darth Waller]

I saw this posted on Rebelscum. Some guy is selling the complete Kenner collection on eBay. The figures are recards, but all the other items are MIB. $40,000.

Beautiful. But there is no way between heaven and hell that I would fess up 40k for the lot.

 

[Darth Waller]

It does include free shipping, but it's definitely overpriced. Maybe if those weren't recards.

 

[budafett]

Over price but quite excellent to look at! Too bad those figures are all recarded...

 

[Darthrazz]

Let's all chip in and buy it!

If the figures are recards, how can you trust the vehicles aren't just the boxes with a brick inside?

Because it has free shipping, silly.

Unless you've got some x-ray device, how can you ever know with boxed toys? And the more profound question--if you never find out, and don't know any different, then does it really matter. . .?

No Rancor, no sale.

 

[Darth Waller]

He has it listed on his lists, so he must've forgotten to include it in the pictures.

 

[icruise]

I'm no expert, but I don't see how this can be anywhere near 40K, even if the figures weren't recarded.

 

[Darth Waller]

Yeah, his price is up there. Star Wars Frames up there.

 

[UncannyX]

The seller listed those originally on ebay a couple of months ago for 70K.

 

[Smudger9]

Yep, insanely overpriced. £10k would probably still be excessive. MIB vehicles aren't worth a great deal. If memory serves the POTF A-Wing is pretty rare, the rest not so much.

 

[EVILFACE]

I don't see 40 grand there.

Heh...always makes me chuckle when i see the old Kenner SW stuff...

When i was a kid i had the Ewok Village and Battering ram...back when it was re-released as part of the Kevin Cosner Robin Hood movie toy line

Not to mention that when i was REALLY little, we used to play with the entire Kenner SW series in Pre-School...

Ah my youth...i both miss it AND am glad its gone

Funny thing is, there was a time when this would have gotten snatched up, even for the listed price. In the late 90's Vintage Star Wars was gold, and people were paying insane prices for the stuff.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Jesus, I had no idea I had that much money laying around in my garage.

 

[Jedi Princess]

Wow, I guess Steve Sansweet is really serious about moving on from Star Wars.
