I’m Unearthing My Old Jakks Collection. It’s Been Years.

[randycabbage]

What’s up guys. I’m not exactly sure how to begin this, but I’ve recently been going back into my old figure collection. It’s been at least 10 years since I’ve gone through them, and even longer since I did more than a quick glance while moving them.

I’m not looking to sell or anything, but after going through the first few boxes, I want to get back in collecting/trading. My issue is that I really don’t know the value/rarity on the things I have, other than a quick look into eBay and stuff like that, or my memory of what was rare. So I’m really just looking for friendly advice from people who know. And I actually had an account here back in the early-mid 00’s, unbelievable this site is still around!

I’ll post if I find anything I think is crazy, but most of my stuff is from the late 90’s - the mid 00’s, but with a bit of older obscure things thrown in. Actually, a lot more than I thought I owned, and were things I was looking to buy now that I’m older. I was an HBK collector, so I do have most of his hasbro figures up until some Classic line stuff, with lots of random stuff in the middle (a teddy bear and an air freshener were the weirdest ones).

But on top of the HBK stuff, I apparently collected Classic a lot more than I remembered. And also have the Three Faces of Foley 3 pack, which I had NO clue I ever got. I did find a Blue Blazer as well, but it’s not in great condition. Another that I had forgotten I had.

Sorry for rambling, thanks if you made it this far. Are there any certain figures I should be looking for? Any advice on how to figure out what my toys would be worth in a trade, or even where to trade them?

Hi mate, so without knowing what you have I'd say your first job is to really go back to eBay and check out sold listings on them to give you an idea on pricing. Another thing you should maybe do is look at MOC pictures of them, if yours are out of box, to see what accessories they come with. I'm not well educated on the late 90's stuff as I didn't start seriously collecting tile the mid 2000's, but Hasbros in good condition are always good to make money from if that was what you were ultimately going to do with them. I'm pretty good on the Classic Superstars line, so feel free to send me a message and I can try and help you with that. You'll maybe know since you said you were on this forum years ago, but there's a classified section that opens up to you once you get to 50 posts, so that would definitely help you as I'm sure there's people here looking for what you might have.

Was it this HBK bear by any chance?
