Grades have been established to help define a common vocabulary shorthand to communicate the condition of vintage action figures.

Getting a good list of Star Wars figures is only part of the challenge. How to best use an action figure checklist is also discussed.

Where is an updated action figure price guide?

Action figure price guides help collectors estimate the value of their toys. Historically, expert collectors of specific brands of action figures have written books, which have included price estimates for various grades of action figures. With the advent of online marketplaces, the publication of these action figure price guides became less common. Given the dynamic nature of collectible pricing, online price guides have distinct and obvious advantages over other types of action figure price guides.

How much is my action figure worth?

Determining the worth of an action figure is a common question for action figure collectors. In the good ole days, you could just buy an action figure price guide from the local bookstore.

The best ways to estimate the worth of an action figure are discussed.

What are the most popular action figures?

There are certainly some dominant brands of action figures with regard to popularity. Star Wars, Marvel, DC, G.I. Joe, and Transformers are very popular brands of action figures. Of course, these action figure brands are popular also relative to the overall number of figures made over the years. The popularity of individual figures changes frequently and often based on new figures and/or releases of new movies or other “news” related to the brand or figure. Another measure of popularity is measured by the figure’s desirability.
