How much for a MP collection?

[brr-icy]

Your main sources should be Japanese sites, $45- $70 a car when they are released. Failing that, eBay is your next cheapest. US Stores and Canadian stores are dead last, usually around $80-$110. The larger figures should run you about $120 - 150. These are all shipped prices as well.

Thanks everybody for your comments. What are some of the good Japanese website to go? I searched on a few of them (Nippon-Yasan, amiami and HLJ), they all seem to do pre-orders only, but they either sold out older ones or they are super expensive (like $250 for MP12).

Those are the ones you want for new toys. For used toys watch the for sale section here and post a wanted thread.

One of HLJ, anime-export or Nippon-Yasan has the MP10 reissue for the equivalent of $160.00 + shipping Also check Ami Ami

The key is get the ORIGINAL releases and LIMITED EDITIONS. So if you need to sell later you have a better shot. Rember MISB C8.5 or better grade is what you are looking for.

Do people actually buy figures as an investment still?

Yes, they never stopped.

Not sure even the original G1s were good investments over the long term.
