    Curiosity Price Check.

    Saw a Mint Never Removed from Box Wonder Woman in what was stated a mint original box inside an acrylic case listed at $218.00 (Includes the acrylic case) at an Antique mall in Byron Georgia.

    Did not ask to see it outside of the case as I was in a hurry and its out of my price range anyway!

    Actually anything above $25 is out of my price range right now. Just wondering about the price.
    Too many toys. Not enough space!

    If it is mint (band around the hair and all) AND the box is in decent shape, let alone mint, you need to get back to the mall and get yourself a boxed WW. In fact, I'll give you $250 for it.

      It sounds like a good price, but i'd be very wary getting it at an antique mall.

      Those people don't underprice things

      chances are there's something wrong with it

        I didn't take a real good look at it. It was in a locked case on the top shelf. Just don't see many in the wild. Seemed too high to me as are most antique malls. Just curious.

          If the box is really nice, and the figure is mint, it sounds like a good price to me.

            Is the figure 8" or the larger doll? If it's 8" thats real good. I personally never want yhe bigger one.

              I agree with what has been said. If it is the 8 inch doll, mint box, and plastic band around the head, it is a great deal at $218.

                8" doll. I took a quick look as I was running late and noticed it on my way out. I wish I had taken a better look (its about 90 miles away from me). Its out of my price range so I just took a quick look.

                  Just a thought. Is there anyway that you can get some pictures of it the next time you drive there? That would certainly eliminate a lot of the guess work as to the value if you could. I have bought an extra digital camera to take along my travels to the antique malls and stores and what not. I wanted to get some pix of store displays of current toys like the Mego Museum has of the Mego's back in the day. Those are something that one does not see a lot of so I thought that it would be a cool idea.

                    Sometimes I travel with my camera, Sometimes I don't. This was one of those times! (Always seems to work that way)

                      Yeah, I hear you. It never fails. That why I bought a second one for back up. Better luck next time.
