The Action Figure Authority grades the condition of any action figure, MOC or loose. They are a very trusted organization in the toy collecting community, and figures with a high grade can fetch many times the price of a figure that isn't graded. They also put your figures in really nice acrylic display cases. They also have other divisions, which grade dolls, die cast cars, and video games. This link is their site, and should answer all of your questions. toygrader.com/ |

An afa figure is when you send your wrestling figure to legendary wrestler Afa from the Wild Samoans. He looks at it and tells you what he thinks of it. He then gives it back to you and proceeds to hit you with the Samoa Drop. It's kind of a cool thing, that is if you don't mind getting beat up a bit.

I would like to get my figures graded, unfortunately, I live in philippines and it is very hard to get it graded because I have to ship it then ship back again. grading of collectible cards can be done here but I've never hear of action figure grading. hopefully afa opens up a branch here because there are lots of collectors here.

i have most all my 1 of 100's graded. One time AFA was at comic con and i brought them a ton of figures to get graded. it was great because i didnt have to spend any money on shipping. It is very expensive so you dont want to get just any fig graded

It is very expensive so you dont want to get just any fig graded How much does it run to get a Jakks figure graded? I have some non-wrestling figures I'd love to get graded if only to better preserve their condition, but they do seem to be a bit expensive to deal with. |
