Actually I thought it might end up going for more than that. Might have had a pop myself if I had the spare cash. Do we think that's a fair price? What about 12 back Palitoys generally?
There used to be a fairly consistent pattern, they'd start around the Ã'£3-400 mark and gradually rise in price as the character became more poular.
So C3P0 for example would be Ã'£300 ish, then would usually come Sand person, Jawa, R2, Stormtrooper, Death Squad commander. up to about Ã'£500.
By the time they Hit Vader, they'd be about Ã'£600. the remaining characters would easily get Ã'£800+ on many occasions they would reach well over Ã'£1k. Luke's were known to sell for over Ã'£2K!!!!!
I think the availablity of palitoy 12 backs is much better understood. Luke is no longer as rare as people thought so has dropped drastically in price. Chewie is now largely seen as the rarest.
The lower end six are now very available and appear regularly on eBay, so their prices have dropped. Vader is also much more available then first thought of, so he too has dropped a lot. The remaining five, apart from the Luke and Chewie have remian fairly consistent.
However, that could all be bollocks, because Palitoy is highly unpredictable.:roll:
