[QUOTE="Wreck-It Ralph, post: 447241, member: 8648"] I think it would only be money well spent if the Action Figure grading companies continue to only grade unrestored items which is not the case with Comics. Many years ago certain comic book owners decided to professionaly restore thier comics that decision on a volume 27 Detective Comic or an Action Comics volume 1 would have cost the owner hundreds of thousands of pounds as the comic grading companies grade both restored and unrestored comics with restored comics selling for considerably higher values. The comic grading companies can differentiate between restored and unrestored comics, if this practice was to move in to Action Figure grading the restoration could significantly devalue the MOC. I guess while AFA/UKG/CAS do not look for professional restoration then you could considerably increase the value of your MOC as there is a significant price jump between a 70 and 90 grade. [/QUOTE]
