        The most valuable---Either my Star Wars early bird set with the envelope or my MEGO Bruce Wayne alter ego.

        The least---Cobra Commander from the Rise of Cobra movie.

          Most- Probably one of my boxed old Lego sets- the original Castle or the Galaxy Explorer Classic Space ship. They're worth at least a couple hundred each.... Least- I'd say some small Lego sets or some incomplete & naked Mego dolls.... I guess I don't have a massive amount of money tied up in toys and dolls...Mego & Lego are the only toys I collect... But I guess I consider guitars and bicycles as toys... That's another story....- a couple thousand dollar guitar, and a bicycle that was more than twice as expensive....

            Probably my Mego Buck Rogers spaceships. I have them all. I also have a metal Daisy Buck Ray gun from all those years ago. Least valuable? I have so much stuff it's hard to say.

              My guess would be my '79 carded Joker. The value in my collection is more overall with a lot of pieces in the $150 to $200 range. I'm sure least would be my some of my childhood loose Star Wars figures which are pretty worn. Ditto for my childhood Mego Spider-Man who's presentable but has a sewn up suit among other issues. That said I would let every "valuable" piece in my collection go before letting go of those pieces.

                My boxed Mego Green Arrow on the high end... on the low end a handful (literally) of monkeys I got out of a gumball machine in Branson, MO.

                While I love my GA he doesn't make me laugh like the monkeys do.

                  Most valuable - hand painted/hand carded Toy Fair sample of Samurai & unproduced All-Terrain Trapper vehicle cromalin. Both about $2,500-$3,000 each.





                  Least? Hrm...there are lots! Most Super Powers ephemera goes from $3-10. :D

                      The most valuable Toy isn't necessarily the one you paid the most for, nostalgia and sentiment can mean that those toys are the most valuable in your collection.

                          My childhood Mego Kirk. He survived it all, including a dive from the roof, three floors down into the turtle tank in the garden.
                          Kirk survived unscathed, the turtles needed counseling...

                          I also have the original George Lucas, encased in carbonite, while his evil twin roams free...

                            Yep, they're ALL of sentimental value..

                            Probably my Robin/Aqualad Action Boy sets, my Ideal Spiderman playset, my few minty MMM's, and my only really cool custom (Famous Covers YellowJacket..). Humbly sayin', it just rocks.

                            Oh, and my Beatles butcher cover.., but I know it's not a toy.
