The Price Check/What is it worth Thread

[SkyWarp91]

Hi everyone, I bought this recently from my local Big-W. I realy didn't like the series probably because I don't realy like star wars in any capacity. Sorry, no offence to those 'down with the force'.

This 'clone trooper > AT-AE' has been mislabeled at the factory as a 'magnagaurd > magnagaurd starfighter'. (see images)

I'm just curious & only bought it cause it was $15 on special & don't mind if thats all its worth....It's just I have seen some mislabeled TF's sell for alot.

Any input about this inparticular or some president about factory miss-labeled action figures would be cool.

Thanks All!

Hi there, for $15 it is a bargain of a deal for toy - but it's nothing rare. If you did hold onto it and would sell it later in a few years I can't imagine the value for this toy going down as it is a Transformer. It probably won't go up, but will just stay at $30-$40ish.

By the way - usually you would ask the worthiness of a toy in the 'Price Check/Is this toy worth it' thread, not start a thread on its own.

There are a few vintage mis-labeled TF and SW toys that can fetch high prices, but there is no immediate value for current mis-labeled ones. I'm not aware of any precedents for mis-labeled figures, sorry.

Yep, and threads merged.

Hi Skywarp91 & Tober, Nice to meet you and thank you for imparting your knowledge- Appreciated!

Sorry about starting a new thread ... believe it or not but i like must have searched for half an hour today b4 i 'found' the appropriate place to ask this....Maybe an hour next time.
I'm becoming more familiar with the boards so & thanks for moving it here so I don't look like a complete (add expletive here).

They were $33.95 reduced to $15 .... there were maybe 12 x magnagards only so i was fortunate to get a cool cheap toy based on the miss-label.I assume it was slightly more popular as clone trooper looks pretty cool in robot mode.

Oh and for anyone that has read my intro including my righteous rants regarding my MISB collecting.... I opened a MP-09 last week!
Man it was tough (Not the just under MP-05 level complex 'i'm going to snap this arm off soon' transformation - but having to cut the box tape! )

Thanks again!
