[QUOTE="_Lee_, post: 492289, member: 418"] Ive just been thinking about how much some adhesive and a bit of plastic changes the ball game in this hobby. My point in question is that you can buy a resealed Palitoy 12 back for 100 or so, but for the same one sealed its maybe 10 times or so more. When you actually think about it, it makes you realise how the hobby has evolved. Is it the mystical,sentimental feeling knowing that the figure has been in the pack for 40 years since the good old 1970s ? thinking that it was made when you were a lad?? When you think about it, it is staggering how much we value and covet such sealed pieces - just because of some glue and plastic. :) [/QUOTE]
