I would guess that it helps being a crossover piece. Maggy collects the Walton's stuff. We both enjoy the show. I bought a cool, cast signed script this year. We got it from Mary McDonough who played Erin on the show. She is very nice and Maggy has chatted with her in the past. Maggy's Walton collecting brought me here due to the Mego items.

The one in the auction may be a bit nicer (the box) then the one I hit the BIN on but they are close. Ours still has the pool balls and cue in the package. I guess I don't feel so bad for paying nearly $200 for one now. I really didn't have the extra cash but they just don't show up regularly. Of course now there seems to be a frenzy. I honestly think it may be a Walton's thing since I also finally scored one of these playsets too.

The last one went for $100 and I had a private party offer me one at $80 but I had a feeling another would show up, which it did.
