>>9270596...There pretty much WAS a bubble that burst in the late 90s/early 2000s, though.
Toys, and collectibles as a whole were being seen as premium collector's items that were meant to saved and kept pristine, and "invested" in. That's how you got a fucking insane Beanie Babies market, among other thing.
>"B-but that's not capeshit!"This whole collectible's disaster in the 90s was lead by McFarlane and Image, and his toyline, where there were dozens of variants, and club exclusives, and online exclusives, and gold versions, and silver versions, and glow-in-the-dark versions, and a million other "premium" items that were meant to be bought and kept sealed.
And then everyone woke up one day and decided this shit was worthless, and that's why you can find most of that shit, still to this day, for barely its retail price from 25 years ago. Its very possible for this shit to collapse. American comics are a joke. Comic stores are failing. The fans have all left. Once the wokies leave, Capeshit will be a burned husk of what it once was.
