The Price Check/What is it worth Thread

[Jetfire in the sky]

Not really a lot go up for sale to have any kind of price guide. Depends on the character. The harder to find ones will still sell quite high even in the Spanish boxes.
But generally the Spanish boxes are valued a lot less than the English ones. There are a few up on Ebay AU (and UK/US) that have been listed for a long time - but haven't sold yet. Best bet would be to check the sold auctions on Ebay.

Agreed....
Spanish sets go for a lot less than their non Spanish counterparts, there has been a renaissance of sorts in the last 18 months or so for gold box collectors so the prices have risen a little but it does depend on figure, condition etc.

How much for Hasbro Mexican G1 OP MIB?

[Jetfire in the sky]

As an MIB Prime collector I have seen a lot of crazy prices over the years, and I say crazy because of how low they go for now. It's like nobody cares about the greatest leader of all time. I recently missed out on the French/Euro Red Feet variant Prime MIB for under $180 !! (thanks to the seller having it finish around dinner time on a week night in our house) I also missed out on a metal plate trailer Prime for around the same price for the same reason late last year.

Here is a good write up from my favourite TF reviewer/blogger Maz. http://www.tf-1.com/articles/mex/mexprime_template.html

But to answer your question, I would say between $150 and $250 which all depends on condition of box, figure etc
Add postage on top of that

I would love to have one.

I'm only missing two Takara main line MP's. MP-1 and MP-3, kinda want them to finish off the set (I went with the Hasbro versions of them back in the day). Are they coming down in price since they have been replaced by MP-10 and MP-11?

So will you be forthcoming with more information?

[Kazza]

Well it looks like Toys R Us cleared all previous Hasbro MP listings. I would like to know what the price tags were for when they were released here. Below I listed what I think they were but if anyone can confirm, that would be great! (I need this information for something special)

Clear box Optimus Prime (MP-10) ($150?)
Clear box Thundercracker (MP-11) ($100?)
MP-02 Soundwave ($150?)
MP-03 Grimlock ($130?)
MP-04 Sunstorm ($100 or 150?)
MP-05 Prowl ($100 or $130?)
MP-06 Bluestreak ($130?)
MP-07 Starscream ($150?)

[MEEEGGGAAATTTRRROOONNN!!!]

MP-03 Grimlock and MP-04 Sunstorm both retailed at $130.
