    Toy Biz Invisible Woman value?

    I am referring to the very 1st one produced around 1990-92, the color changing one. They were produced in very limited quantities before reissuing her with some type of flying disc at her side and without the color changing feature.

    I was wondering if there is any value on her now. I can't find any type of info these days on her.

    Thanks!

      I sold a BIG box of carded Marvel 1990s figures at a local shop a few years ago. When they came to the Rhino and Invisable Woman they said " oh no not any more! "

      Sorry.

        The color chane was VERY sought after around 1992-94.I remember seeing these sell in the $120-$200 range then. Now you'll be lucky to get $20 for her.

          I've pulled mine out recently and noticed her color had all faded.

            ^^^ No, her color had "changed" as advertised.

                    I still think this is a rare figure and will probably increase in the future. I remember how hard I hunted for this figure but with no success. I do own two and love the figure.

                      I doubt it....It's a Crap figure from a Crappy toy line....

                        Although it can't hurt to try your luck on trying to sell it on ebay.

                        I just did a quick search and there doesn't seem to be a lot of them listed (or recently sold). It's the catapault one that is plentiful, and you can find a couple of the Color Change Hall of Fame carded ones, but I don't see any of the original Marvel carded Color Change Invisible Woman.

                        So while there doesn't seem to be high demand for them currently, there is also not many of them to be found in the wild either.

                        Keep in mind that they were actually Rarer than all the other figures at the time of release, not only was she the short-packed female figure (following the Storm peg hanger), but they pulled her and replaced her with the catapault version due to problems with the color change feature.

                        It might be worth watching this one to see how it does...

                          It was one of those artificially "rare" figures because it was so heavily scalped.
                          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                            By way of vague comparison, I recall the other "Hot" figure that was seemingly comparable in $$$ value to finding an Invisible Woman Color Change figure, was the Spawn Malebolgia figure.

                            Those are plentiful on ebay.

                              The question I have is, have most of the figures' colors faded over time? Has anyone seen one that still retains it's color? If so, I would imagine that would be the high ticket one.
