Ghostbusters Price Update

The new Classics line is obviously a MUCH cheaper way to re-live your childhood, so it’s naturally going to have an affect on the values of the original toys from the 1980’s. Dedicated collectors may be inspired to acquire the original toys of their childhood, but for more casual fans who don’t have the desire to drop hundreds of dollars on originals, these new Classics figures offer the perfect alternative. The Classics line has most definitely had an impact on the values of the original toys, but the line was limited and seems to be coming to an end now. All original items that were “re-issued” under the classics banner saw a downward trend of recent. This is obviously due to collectors now being able to obtain the items they’ve always wanted at more affordable prices. That being said, many other items from the original line that were not re-issued or part of the Classics line saw an increase in values. Some of these items saw a slight bump while others like the Fire House Headquarters and Proton Pack Green Ghost saw big increases. Overall, the Real Ghostbusters line remains extremely healthy with many items remaining very affordable. This means there is only one way to go, and that’s UP!

Real Ghostbusters items that saw an increase on this update include:

Green Ghost

Once again, most of the downward moving items on this update are due to their re-release through the Kenner Classics line, but I have no doubt these items will begin to gradually rise with time.

Masters of the Universe Price Update

Since the values of certain items can fluctuate greatly over time, The Toy Collectors Guide prides itself in keeping up with the most current market trends and any shifts that may affect the various secondary market prices. There are many factors that drive those trends and shifts which include, an item’s time period, scarcity, consumer demand and overall condition. The good news for Masters of the Universe collectors is there is always a demand for items from this era, as Mattel created some truly iconic pieces. The original Masters of the Universe toys had always remained popular with collectors and fans throughout the years, with consistent value, but the line has seen a revival over the last couple of years. This was mostly due to the new animated series, Masters of the Universe: Revelation on Netflix. The show was a big hit with fans and critics alike, and toys were launched from the new series in 2021 with new versions of fan favorite characters. In addition to Revelations, Mattel also had their Masters of the Universe Classics line, and Super 7 continued with their Re-Action line of figures. That being said, the biggest new series of figures came from the commemorative Origins line, which featured molds of the original toys in their original packaging. The big question for collectors was…….how would these Origins “re-issues” affect the values of the original toys from the 1980’s? That question has now been answered.

The Origins line is obviously a MUCH cheaper way to re-live your childhood, so it’s naturally going to have different affects on different types of buyers. For dedicated collectors, this may inspire them to go back and acquire the original toys of their childhood, but for more casual fans who don’t have the desire to drop hundreds or even thousands of dollars on originals from the 1980’s, these new Origins figures offer the perfect alternative. The Origins line has most definitely had an impact on the values of the original toys, that’s for sure. While playsets, accessories and vehicles look to be holding their value fairly well, the original carded figures are mostly showing a downward trend. This is obviously due to causal collectors now being able to obtain the figures they’ve always wanted at more affordable prices. That being said, the loose versions of the original figures are still holding steady with only minimal movement. Some had ticked slightly up and some have ticked slightly down, but they’ve generally been pretty even. This supports my theory that many collectors and fans from that era still have their loose Masters of the Universe figures, but can now finally get carded versions of them without breaking the bank.

The re-release of new Masters of the Universe toys should be considered a good thing for everyone. Not only does it allow us the opportunity to buy new Masters of the Universe toys again, but it also introduces this amazing universe to a whole new generation that never would have had the opportunity to experience it otherwise. It keeps the franchise alive with brand new stories being told about our favorite childhood characters. At the end of the day, Masters of the Universe fans just want to see their beloved series continue on, so this is an amazing gift that we get to share with others who have not been able to do so in the past. Besides, isn’t it a truly beautiful site to be able to walk down a Wal-Mart or Target toy aisle, and see new Masters of the Universe toys lining the shelves again!

Among the downward movers on this update, were:

Beast Man
1982

Man-At-Arms
1982

Mer-Man
1982

Skeletor
1982/1984

Battle Cat
1982

Roton
1984

Land Shark
1985

Slime Pit
1986

Not all news was bad when it comes to Masters of the Universe toy values though, as many items saw an increase in value as well. Most items from the 1987 waves saw an nice increase in searches and prices, as well as many of the creatures from various waves. Included were:

Blade
1987

Scare Glow
1987

Sssqueeze
1987

Comet cat
1987

Rotar
1987

Twistoid
1987

Despite the downward trend with some Masters of the Universe items, the Princess of Power line saw the opposite effect. Collectors of this line didn’t have the option of purchasing a similarly vintage packaged figure like the Masters of the Universe Origins series. Only one Princess of Power figure was released under the Origins line and that was She-Ra, but she was on the traditional MOTU card back, not the regular Princess of Power pink/purple card. As a result, many figures from the Princess of Power line saw an increase in value since the Masters of the Universe revival began.
It should also be noted that all eight of the 1986 Fantastic Fashions sets saw a hefty increase from previously listed. This is mostly due to their scarcity on the secondary market and low production numbers.

Among the upward movers on this update, were:

Castaspella
1985

Catra
1985

Double Trouble
1985

Kowl
1985

She-Ra
1985

Entrapta

1986

Sweet Bee
1986

Starburst She-Ra
1986

Shower Power
Catra 1987

Arrow
1985

Storm

Only a handful of items saw a value decrease from the Princess of Power line. Among them were:

Bubble Power She-Ra
1987

Crystal Castle
1985

Big Jim Price Update

Since the values of certain items can fluctuate greatly over time, The Toy Collectors Guide prides itself in keeping up with the most current market trends and any shifts that may affect the various secondary market prices. There are many factors that drive those trends and shifts, which include an item’s time period, scarcity, consumer demand and overall condition. The good news for Big Jim collectors is there is always a demand for items from this era, as Mattel created some truly iconic pieces. That being said, values on many Big Jim items have seen an uptick over the last year, since Mattel released a trio of old school re-boot figures that included Big Jim as the Wolf PACK commander. These figures were made available at SDCC in 2022, and sparked some serious interest in the old lines. The Big Jim toy market had already been very steady due to that ever present 70’s and 80’s nostalgic desire for the kids who grew up during those years (myself included), to re-acquire the toys they loved from their youth. This, coupled with the new SDCC figures, caused enough of a ripple to shift the market upwards.

Among the upward movers on this update, were:

Big Jim

Power Rangers have arrived at the Toy Collectors Guide!

IT’S MORPHIN TIME!!!

How many of us instantly think of that colorful team of heroes doing battle against giant evil space aliens whenever we hear those words! I would venture that almost every one of us do, since we all collect toys as a hobby. Whether you collect them or not, whether you watched them or not, whether you enjoy them or not, the Power Rangers have certainly etched out a permanent spot in fandom lore as one of the biggest toy franchises of the last thirty years. There is absolutely no doubt of the huge impact this team of heroes has had on pop culture.

The very first episode of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers aired on August 28, 1993, while the toys were actually released about a month prior. Since then, this franchise has just grown and grown over time, and continues to this day.

The Power Ranger toys that are featured on our Toy Collectors Guide site cover the period between their initial launch in 1993 until Disney sold them back to Saban Entertainment in 2010. These are generally considered the golden years of the franchise and canvases the largest portion of the series.

The pages for all the Power Ranger releases covered on the site are separated by the year and theme of each particular season. Each page contains a full breakdown of all items released during that season, including photos, secondary market values and more. Like the rest of the site, these values are taken from the most current data available from all the major secondary market sites across the internet. This data is based on actual sales of the individual items and not necessarily the listed prices.

I hope you enjoy our new Power Rangers section and have fun exploring the site.

Now……………………Let’s Power Up and GO GO POWER RANGERS!!

Hasbro Announces The Selfie Series.

Turn yourself into an action figure this fall!

Click this link to check-out Hasbro’s Selfie Series Page

Are you ready to make your wildest dreams come true…………………..well, at least the one involving you being made into an action figure. Beginning this Fall, that’s exactly what Hasbro is doing. Every child growing up with toys and action figures has dreamed about an action figure of themselves, and it’s finally becoming a reality.

In collaboration with 3D printing company, Formlabs, Hasbro is offering fans the opportunity to put your face onto the body of one of their favorite Movie or TV characters from Star Wars, Ghostbusters, GI Joe, or Power Rangers. Those are the only ones released at this point, but Hasbro owns a lot of licenses, so we’ll see who gets added to the party later on.

You will have to download the Hasbro Pulse App to participate in the Selfie Series

Hasbro’s Official Announcement

“Want to immortalize yourself as your very own action figure?”

“This one-of-a-kind experience will be launching in Fall 2022 exclusively on the Hasbro Pulse mobile app (for fans aged 16 and older, in the US only).”

Many details have yet to be announced, but the process is seemingly painless. First, you will have to download the Hasbro Pulse app to get started. Then, you will scan your face, choose your desired look, and then stand by the mailbox and wait.

Once again, exact pricing details have yet to be announced, but Hasbro has floated out the number of $60 for the entire process. That seems like an amazing deal for something this cool, but we will definitely have to see how the pricing plays out closer to launch. If the price point holds true, that’s a bargain, because I would pay WAY more than that to make myself an action figure.

The Selfie Series will all be made available this Fall, so stay tuned for more information.

Star Trek – U.S.S Enterprise Playset (Mego – 1974)

A look back at an action figure classic!

This Toy Spotlight focuses on a true legend in the action figure industry, and an item that many kids had from the 1970’s. When Mego launched their Star Trek toy line in 1974, it was an instant hit. The first wave of items included a few action figures, accessories and one gloriously fun playset. That playset, made for the 8 inch figures, is now considered a iconic toy classic. So without further ado, I present Mego’s U.S.S Enterprise Playset from 1974.

By 1974, Mego Toys was quickly becoming a global name in the toy industry. With the World’s Greatest Heroes line already proving to be a huge success, Mego turned their sights on other licenses from the the big and small screens. The original Star Trek television series ran from 1966 to 1969 and spanned 79 episodes. In late 1969, Star Trek began running syndicated episodes in over 200 markets, which sparked a huge revival of interest in the show. Star Trek became so big, the original actors returned to voice their characters in an Animated Series from 1973 to 1974. Mego took notice of this, and quickly signed Star Trek to a licensing deal for a very reasonable price. Mego had high hopes for the line from the very beginning, and their attention to detail really showed with the first wave of figures and accessories. Since Star Trek Mania was at a fevered pitch, the Star Trek action figure series turned out to be one of the biggest selling lines that Mego ever produced. It did well enough that additional waves of figures and accessories were released in following years.

The first wave of Star Trek items included five action figures, and a few roleplay accessories such as the Communicator set, a Tricorder, and of course, the Enterprise playset. The Enterprise was arguably the most successful and best selling playset that Mego had ever created, depending on who you ask. It was available in abundance due to massive production numbers by Mego, but you can’t really blame them. Despite the large production runs, it still sold extremely well. The U.S.S Enterprise Action playset was the first one released for the Star Trek line, and would go on to become an icon of that era of toys. The playset itself was not incredibly accurate to the actual bridge from the Enterprise, but it definitely captured the spirit of it, and it was just plain fun.

The Enterprise playset itself could be folded up into a neat and tidy carry case, complete with a handle on top. The set included a computer console with two crew member stools and of course, the captain’s chair. Also included were three different two-sided viewer screens that could be manually changed out. The Enterprise set was basically broken down into three different areas of the ship. The main part was of course, the bridge. This is where you could set up the computer and chairs, along with the view screens. This was the largest area, and could easily accommodate several Star Trek figures. There was a small room to the right of the bridge, which is identified as the “Engine Room”, but has no accessories. The final section of the playset also happens to be the absolute coolest part of it, the transporter room. A figure would be placed inside the transporter, and then you would spin it by using the spin button on top of it. Then you mash the stop button, and the transporter would come to a sudden stop. Just like that, the figure would disappear…..….or at least be on the other side of the transporter.

A “Gift Set” version of the Enterprise also exists, and came in a yellow box. The Gift Set is basically identical to the regular version, but includes the first five figures (Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scottie, Klingon), and that’s about it. A separate “Transporter Room” was also offered overseas by the Mego subsidiary, Palitoy. This was essentially the same transporter as the one inside the playset, but sold separately. It was actually a nifty piece to have, especially when you wanted to re-create “transporting” from the Enterprise to a planet surface or another ship.

Mego’s U.S.S Enterprise Playset was a huge hit back in the mid 1970’s, and is highly coveted by collectors nowadays. There were a LOT of these sold back in the day, which obviously affects the secondary market value. The good news is that any collector of Mego or Star Trek needs one of these in their collection. It remains extremely poplar on the secondary market, and still brings good prices. Loose versions of the Enterprise playset can be easily found, and usually sell for affordable prices. Boxed versions can also still be found, but are getting harder and harder to find in a decent shape. Mego really set the bar high for future playsets, and the Enterprise is genuinely considered an all-time classic. Mego’s USS Enterprise remains the gold standard for what a successful action figure playset looks like. Despite its simplicity, it worked really well, and provided hours of entertainment for children (myself included) from that era. It still holds up extremely well, and if you don’t believe me, just ask my kids who loved making their more modern action figures disappear in the transporter room while playing with it. A big thank you goes out to Mego for their creative ingenuity in putting this classic together and shaping an incredible era of toys.

ReAction Figures By Super 7

A throwback to the good old days!

When it comes to toy brands, everyone knows the big boys such as Hasbro, Mattel and maybe even Playmates, but you are sorely missing out if you aren’t familiar with Super 7.

The Super 7 Company was founded in 2001 by Brian Flynn out of San Francisco. It started out as a magazine about vintage Japanese toys, which was published until 2007. Flynn, who was a designer by trade, also happened to be a rabid collector of vintage toys. So he began designing toy lines based on the popular brands from his youth. Super 7 now is the home of many fun and creative toy lines, but the one we are focusing on is my personal favorite, the ReAction line of figures.

Super 7 began the ReAction series in 2013 with the classic style of the vintage 3.75” Kenner figures from the 1980’s. The figures basically created vintage style action figures of movies and brands that we grew up with, but never actually had an action figure line of their own during that era. The figures feature some pretty basic sculpting, but that’s what makes these figures so unique and charming.

When the ReAction line first began in 2013, Super 7 partnered with Funko to give them the licenses and distribution channels they needed. A few years later, in 2016, Super 7 announced they had resumed control of the line solely, and would began producing figures of their own without Funko. The ReAction figure line has been going strong ever since, with an ever growing lineup of brands and licenses.

If you were to create a comprehensive checklist for all of the ReAction figures since 2013, it would be quite the long list. The line actually began with one franchise, and that was the classic 1979 movie, Alien. An action figure line was initially planned for the movie by Kenner, but never made it to release at the time, due to the mature theme of the movie. The figures were famously displayed in catalogs but were never actually releases to retail stores. ReAction launched an Alien line of figures in 2013 to mirror the figures that were originally produced by Kenner. The line launched at San Diego Comic Con that year, and turned into a huge hit.

The following year in 2014, ReAction went into full production mode with lines based on all kinds of franchises, such as Back to the Future, Goonies, Escape From New York, Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Predator, Pulp Fiction and the Universal Monsters. The next year, 2015, saw the launch of Gremlins, The Karate Kid, Jaws, Terminator, Big Trouble in Little China, Nightmare Before Christmas, The Flash, and several modern horror brands such as Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th.

Super 7 definitely had the reputation of making action figures from just about anything they could get their hands on, and that has only grown over the years. Nowadays, Super 7 produces ReAction figures based on everything from sports figures (MLB, NBA) to music entertainers (Grateful Dead, Brittney Spears, Johnny Cash), and from established franchises (Transformers, GI Joe, TMNT) to famous Disney brands (Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Haunted Mansion, Buzz Lightyear). Super 7’s ReAction line truly does it all, and then some.

In fact, more than 100 different brands or licenses have been turned into 3.75″ action figures, thanks to Super 7. The good news for collectors is there are no signs of slowing down anytime soon, as new waves continue to get cranked out each month. Much like Funko’s Pop bobble head figures, if you can’t find a ReAction figure that speaks to you, then you really aren’t even trying.

GI JOE Has A New Menu Format

The Toy Collectors Guide has now consolidated all three era’s of GI Joe figures under one banner on the menu.

Each era from the GI Joe line deserves its own section and needed to be separate from the others to give it the proper respect and attention it deserves.

What is different?
Previously, I had separate tabs for the 1970’s Adventure Team and 1980’s/1990’s modern era figures. Both tabs are now under one “GI Joe 1964-1994” tab on the menu. In addition, I have now added the 1960’s Joe era as well.

What will I see when I click on the “GI Joe 1964-1994” tab?
If you are searching for GI Joe items, you will begin by clicking on the master “GI Joe 1964-1994” tab from the menu. That will bring you to a Joe home page with each separate GI Joe era. This makes it much easier to find the Joe information you are looking for, and is perfect for browsing.

Are the individual pages the same?
Yes, each individual page remained the same, I just consolidated them under one GI Joe banner to make it easier to search.

Why separate GI Joe into three different sections?
GI Joe is naturally divided into those three sections because of the very unique era of each. The 1964-1969 waves focused on the military, while the 1970-1978 waves shifted from military to adventure themes. The 1982-1994 series shrunk the figures down to a 3.75″ size and went back to the military focus.

I hope you enjoy the new GI Joe format, along with all the new information I’ve added.
