Mint MOTU (Masters of the Universe) Action Figures
Master of the Universe action figures are not a huge rarity by themselves but when they are in mint, unsealed condition a MOTU toy can fetch hundreds of dollars. I used to have several He-man toys as a kid but I never bothered leaving them in their original packaging and I'm sure most of you didn't either. That makes for a rare toy. Combine that with a popular series of cartoons in He-man and you have yourself a low supply with a high demand my friends. That's right, expensive.
- Mint He-man MOTU Figure
I'm not a collector of Mint Masters of the Universe action figures myself but I do know some collcectors and have witnessed first hand how lucrative a business it can be. Collectors don't just spend big bucks and keep these action figures, they sometimes find great deals and turn around and make huge profits with these figures. Imagine going to a yard sale and finding a sealed mint Faker figure from 1982 for ten cents! After working for two hours to remove the stupid yard sale sticker without damaging the antique cardboard you list the toy on eBay and sell it for $500! That happens to those diligent enough to put the effort in to look around.
