Admit it. We must have some heavy spending collectors. I’ve been watching auctions and prices have been going up quite a bit lately.
Anyone have a collection photo to share?

 PS. I saw a few GoBots, Carded US, for over $600 each! One was a Hornet in blue, late model. The other was a plane as I recall. Are you surprised ? E |

I didn't expect those kinds of prices. I have a hand full. I am waiting on the machine robo Steam Robo to come from HK. I love action toys reboot.

I think it's partly due to nostalgic retro card and box art is totally king, on the upswing, and what a lot of modern collecting, and even modern made retro toys are lasering in on homages to the retro style of the 60s-early 90s, The packaging of a certain era is much more important to reaquire, for its funky feel and jolt of nostalgia, than the actual loose toys themselves.
Loose prices aren't going crazy, the premium competiveness is always that packaging.

Voltron....ALL the Voltron stuff, is also on another upswing, as a big new wave of collectors are finding each other in the scene, on social media groups.
