Good point- if things ever got bad I could always liquidate them. (I guess I have UCS boba too, I just didn't consider him a rare figure because I don't have him on display like my Thrawn, he's just chilling in the Slave One cockpit.)

I assume you'd display it, but there's just nothing special about him. I still don't get why lego made him in the first place, did the actor call and complain?

I'm gonna be honest, it was probably about diversity. I just checked UCS boba and he's worth $80, used to be even more before Boba arm printing became standard. OG Thrawn has also gone down a bit since the new one.

I got curious and looked up some other rare and expensive SW minifigs. Please correct me if I missed some! I’m going by memory :snicker: I think the top 3 are:

  1. The number one spot seems to go to the 2013 “NY I love” Yoda, priced above $2000 for a silly torso :laugh_hard:
  2. Finch Dallow is next, with the cheapest one on BL right now being $1400, which is also bloody ridiculous, but at least he’s an actual character from the movies.
  3. 2003 CC Boba Fett takes home bronze, priced at around $900. Also makes no sense to me since better versions exist!

Another baffling one is the Yuletide pilot from the Xmas X-Wing. Why is it worth over $600 now? *huh*

$45 for Young Leia. She’s a main character in a show I like and I don’t think Lego will release more Kenobi sets in the near future.

But I bought most of my loose figures (LOTR/Hobbit) in 2016-2019 so I paid around $10 per item.

So the UCS falcon is still in production, I know some people complain about the generic face used for Han does that mean technically they could (even if they obviously wouldn't) use that variation of a print they abandoned like 6 years ago?

I find weird production oddities like that funny, like how the late 2000s Rebel fleet trooper head outlasted it's 2012 replacement because they stayed in the Death Star until it's late 2015 retirement
