[QUOTE="Dannywhiteley, post: 448028, member: 6547"] Prior to Disney/TFA prices increased relatively steadily. The last 17 were always seen as the 'grails' of a loose collection and hence the most expensive figures. This was always the case since back in the early 90's as commited collectors chased full sets. I think post Disney, it's brought lots of more casual collectors to the market who just aren't interested in Barada or Romba but want an absolutely mint first 12 for display purposes. As a result the values of those figures have really been affected. The weapons of the first 12 don't help either, black Leia blaster at £50+, three different sabres that need mint tips as well as Jawa blaster, vinyl capes etc. Add to that risk of C3PO floppy limbs and R2'S decal needing to be mint.
