G.I. Joe
Beyond the famous Snake Eyes model, there are plenty of other G.I. Joe toys that hold much attention for collectors. Those who held onto their little soldiers, and never took them out their boxes, can sell them for a handsome sum. The Laser Rifle Trooper, Cobra Commander, and Scarlett set straight out of 1982 can sell for around $300 – $500. Of course, that is assuming that they are in their original packaging. If you happen to have the original accompanying accessories too, you can inflate the value of these sets even higher. Finally, being able to provide the “File Card” will be the cherry on the top. You can expect to earn between $20 – $200 for these original sets.

Funko Pops
Funko Pops have dominated the current geek toy market, with most people have seen them in stores. These adorable little bobblehead figurines have also become highly desirable among collectors thanks to their massive appeal and extensive variety. Despite so many pop culture franchises having been given the Funko Pop treatment, there are only several figures which will be purchased for high amounts. A Shadow Trooper and Chewbacca figurine unveiled respectively at the 2011 San Diego Comic-Con are highly valuable entries to the Star Wars series. They each will be sold for somewhere between $800 – $1000, with the 2012 Darth Maul piece selling for an added $200. Moving on, we have the Dumbo Funkos which are a solid investment that will build in value as time goes by. At present, a blue and gold metallic edition will sell for more than $500. A decapitated, “Headless” Ned Stark from the infamous Game of Thrones series is another highly sought-after figurine, selling on eBay for $1,500.
