Depends on who wants to pay for it. I say US$40,000.
I have 1,000 action figures, 3 adult replica belts signed by the likes of Hogan, Bret Hart, HBK, Undertaker, Cena, etc.
Three Undertaker Wrestlemania plaques, several prototypes and unreleased figures and a Wrestlemania 25 poster signed by most of the big names - Cena, HBK, Rey, Orton, Big Show, etc.

'Bout tree fiddy.
But really, I can't put a price on my collection. Collecting figs has been my favorite hobby this year.

Probably not much. Other than the like 12 or so I have on display in my room, the rest of them are mainly older Jakks RA figures sitting in a blue tub in a storage locker. I have no idea who or what I have in there anymore. Lol. For the last several years I've only been buying one or two every year or so and it was only of my favorites. Now I'm trying to go back and collect a whole bunch of Elites that I really like the looks of (with the preference still being for my favorites)

The only thing I see when I look at my collection is regret.

I know how much I've paid for the entire thing, which ranges close to 300 boxed figures, but to put a price on it is kinda difficult to do.
Really, it depends on how much the demand is for a particular figure amd what someone is willing to spend to get it.

I have no idea what my collection is worth. I will never sell it. I would rather die then sell my collection.

Are we talking Mattel only, or also other brands?
If I take all brands into consideration, I do think that my collection is worth a pretty penny.
I have a couple of MOC Hasbro's to begin with. I had almost a complete MOC collection, but as I decided I could not collect everything, I sold most of them last year. I did keep some of the more expensive and rarer ones like Dusty Rhodes, all green carded figures as well as the first series on butterfly hook cards. I also kept my unpunched Akeem, and also a signed Ted Dibiase series 1 one.
I also have a complete Jakks Classic Superstars singles collection with almost every Exclusive that was made, such as the Hogan Canadian Exclusives, the 1/3000 Toyfare Exclusives, The ProFigures Exclusives like LOD and The Hart Foundation, and the 24/7 Flair, just to name a few. On top of these, I also have several 2- and 3-packs (but not all like my singles collection). I also have most of the 1/100 figures, with the exception being the black/white Piper.
With regards to Mattel, I have every 1/1000 figures and most of all Basics, Elite's and BP's that were made till the beginning of 2014 (all MOC). After that, it all got a bit too much and too expensive for me, so now I am stockpicking, meaning I only buy the figures I want like all "First in Line" and Flashback figures. I also collect (and have most) Walmart, Kmart and TRU Exclusives.
Moneywise, all together, an amount somewhere between USD 15.000,- and USD 20.000,- perhaps?

Whatever you think your collection is worth, you should probably cut it in half and you'd get a more accurate #. Many people think "well I paid $20 for this figure so its worth $20" but in reality the chances of you getting $20 for that figure later on is highly unlikely. You're much more likely to get it into the $10-$12 range for resell. Even when you get an exclusive or limited figure that you spend $20 and it resells for say $50....you've probably got 3 other figures that you bought for $20 and cant get but $8-$10 for, so your profit offsets. Ive got 119 Legends/Flashbacks on display and I would estimate that if I resold them Id only get $1200-$1400 max on them. That's at an estimate of $10-$12 per figure average.

Nivro, look at Ebay, you would be amazed at what older flashbacks and Legends are selling for these days. Or maybe just the UK is super expensive.
I'm currently re-auditing mine with values. I know what I paid for most of them, and it's easy to figure out what most are worth.
I was lucky to get huge swathes of classic superstars and hasbro's in bulk, and very cheap. I bought every mattel I own at retail price, (Around 300 items)
CC, I reckon you are being bearish with that figure, knowing what you have in your collection
I think that my total action figure collection, which includes most original Turtles figures Moc, Vintage star wars and newer Star Wars, Star Trek, He-man, Thundercats, Transformers, and M.A.S.K, could be worth about 40,000 GBP if sold individually through a good ebay shop account. I have about around 10 figures that are worth between 200-1000 gbp, and around 800 MOC in total. Wrestling figures probably worth 15k gbp. (24k usd)
Only 10% of MOC I would sell (if I had the time), and another 5% I would sell if I could get a better conditioned item. Some of my Hasbro have seen better days.

With the going prices on the market? I have over 200 elites with most fetching down 30-100 loose. All mine are complete and clean and unplayed with. So by going market rates, hell, I dunno, I don't math so good.
I don't want to sell anyway. Not in it for value. If I ever lost so much interest as to never want them again and sold them, I wouldn't be mad if the value had dropped. And let's face it, it will drop, at least on loose figures. I'd take whatever they paid and say "well, at least that was a ton of fun putting that collection together".
