[QUOTE="edd_jedi, post: 258149, member: 2"] Just to back up what I said before, this is exactly what I mean. I'm in no way belittling anybodies collections here, but you made a choice to buy the 'pricey' Palitoy carded figures, and even if the sealing story isn't true it has been a well known fact for nearly 20 years that Toni has hundreds if not thousands of mint examples of many figures, even if he has chosen to drip-feed them rather than flood the market. So again these are just toys and in many cases there is nothing rare or valuable about them, we all know there is a huge stockpile of them sitting somewhere but that doesn't stop most people paying good money for them. Sorry but that's not Toni's fault, that is a choice you have made. They are beautiful things for sure, but I don't see how anybody could believe they are scarce knowing where they come from. And Joe I completely agree it would be a big shock if it was true and would cause a massive ****-storm, no doubt. But again this hype is something the collecting community has created itself. Nobody, not even AFA, can 100% prove wether anything we have in our collection is the real deal (whatever that means.) There is no science behind it like precious metals. [/QUOTE]
