>>10516408- produced in huge numbers
- hoarded MIP by collectors
- star wars figures never stopped being produced after their debut
Original SW figures were worth money in good nick because most of them wound up heavily used. Star Wars also disappeared for about ten years. So you had nostalgia starting to fuel demand, scarcity, and a product vacuum. In contrast, there are shit tons of PotF2 figures in mint condition, consequently fewer of them were played with as toys, and new figures came every year thereafter. There's no nostalgia, no scarcity, and always something new to spend SW collector money on instead. And all that is without going into the somewhat dubious design choices that are also unpopular, like beefy figures or stuck already in action pose. In sum, as a collector's item PotF2 hits literally every single marker that would kill its collectibie value. That's why they aren't worth shit, and will never be worth shit - barring the very few odd ones that for some reason might be genuinely rare and sought after. In fact, the only reason they're even worth as much as they are is because everyone's asking price is set at the minimum nobody wants to go below. If it was a more dynamic market responsive to supply and demand instead of set asking price, probably you could get these MOC for a quarter apiece.
