Posted June 10, 200915 yr Hi guys I was just wondering, which minifig would be the most expensive to buy to day... would it be the ones from the old spacesets, star wars, city or what. Personally I think the star wars figures is the most expensive, I haven't seen anyone more expensive than a SW figure... But I'm not that sure. Any help... for the most expensive and sought after figures. Henrik Edited June 10, 200915 yr by ImperialShadows Fixed things.

June 10, 200915 yr Chrome 3PO, I'm pretty sure. However, orginal MISP first minifigs would also be very valuable.
June 10, 200915 yr No way it would easily be the 24 carot gold c-3po. Oh and it is spelt expensive but I wont say any more as eb welcomes people from countries who dont speak english.
June 10, 200915 yr No way it would easily be the 24 carot gold c-3po. Oh and it is spelt expensive but I wont say any more as eb welcomes people from countries who dont speak english.They were 14 carat gold, and yes, expensive is spellt expensive !CopMike
June 10, 200915 yr They were 14 carat gold, and yes, expensive is spellt expensive !CopMike Unless you live in the US, then it would be spelled. Chrome C3po is probably the most expensive regular minifig.
June 10, 200915 yr They were 14 carat gold, and yes, expensive is spellt expensive !CopMike spellt is not in the English dictionary ... Spelt is the correct spelling :P http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/spelt%5B2%5D
June 10, 200915 yr I remember a sterling silver C-3PO figure which is a single copy. It was given away in a raffle while San-Diego Comic-Con.
June 10, 200915 yr Author Anyone got some pictures of that gold c3po or silver c3po...... what´s the gold some give away thing or what.. ?? Henrik
June 10, 200915 yr I remember a sterling silver C-3PO figure which is a single copy. It was given away in a raffle while San-Diego Comic-Con. I thought there was also a copper one given out? And as far as normal minifigs included in everyday sets, not exclusive figs, Watto and the Cloud City Boba Fett easily take the cake. Edited June 10, 200915 yr by booger540
June 10, 200915 yr Well in the u.k it is spelt or spellled but I am an ideot and cant remember which any way her is a pic of the gold c-3po. I believe it was a free random giveaway in some sets back a while ago. Edited June 10, 200915 yr by Eskallon

I believe it was a free random giveaway in some sets back a while ago.<snip> Actually, no, that is the solid 14 carat C-3PO, which there were only 5 of. The chrome gold one had 10,000 copies of the fig randomly sent out.
June 10, 200915 yr This guy is pretty expensive. You can get him for around 400 USD on Bricklink right now. That's a little overpriced. I had one that I got offered 150 USD for though. I gave it to a great friend of mine... that's being friendly
June 10, 200915 yr This guy is pretty expensive. Whats so special about him? I mean, why is this bloke so expensive? And what makes a minifig expensive? (Not talking about chromies, goldies, or silvies) I mean, some are very rare, only ever appeared in one set and look nice but are cheap as chips. Please enlighten... *puzzled*
June 10, 200915 yr Whats so special about him? I mean, why is this bloke so expensive? The ultra rare Maersk-blue helmet.
June 10, 200915 yr The ultra rare Maersk-blue helmet. A plastic helmet is worth $400? I think that the most expensive figure are those gold C-3POs. For regular minifigs that can be found in sets, I think that Cloud City Boba Fett and Greedo are some of the most expensive. EDIT: Fixed a typo... Edited June 11, 200915 yr by ILikePi
June 10, 200915 yr For regular minifigs that can be found in sets, I think that Cloud City Boba Fett and Greedo are some of the mose expensive. And Watto. I'm proud to say that I have Greedo, (did have two, now only one) Watto, and I'm about to buy an entire Cloud City set from a friend of mine, who is the one I traded my other Greedo to, and he also has a Watto. Luckily, he wants to sell his whole collection, mainly SW, and I'm in the market.
June 10, 200915 yr Regarding the 14 carat C-3PO and the Maersk MiniFig,... I think C-3PO - Chrome Gold (SW 30th Anniversary Edition) is one of the expensived MiniFigs around at the moment.
June 10, 200915 yr Don't forget Jango Fett - unless his cost has come down... Never got in the hundreds, but he was still pretty hard to come by, and thus pretty expensive.
June 10, 200915 yr A plastic helmet is worth $400? --> I understand you remark. And in this case is really for the helmet that you paid. But most of the time you pay because it's color or special accessories on the minifigure. And some parts concerning their size are way too overprized. For example if you would buy a minifigure with white pigtails or one with old red knight visor or ... I think that the most expensive figure are those gold C-3POs. --> No doubt !!! For regular minifigs that can be found in sets, I think that Cloud City Boba Fett and Greedo are some of the mose expensive. --> Those are still "ok" if you see that you pay 25USD for a single hair piece like the white pigtails (the cheapest one). - Boba Fett - Greedo
June 11, 200915 yr --> Those are still "ok" if you see that you pay 25USD for a single hair piece like the white pigtails (the cheapest one).- Boba Fett - Greedo A Cloud City printed Boba Fett is around $70. Edited June 11, 200915 yr by ILikePi
June 11, 200915 yr A Cloud City printed Boba Fett is around $70. --> Oops, wrong link... I was already surprised to see it at this prize (my link).
June 11, 200915 yr The ultra rare Maersk-blue helmet. Sounds like it'd be easier to just paint a red one, since it's worth almost $400 less A Cloud City printed Boba Fett is around $70. Cloud City Lando also sells for quite a bit. He doesn't seem to be worth $50, since there's a better version of him coming out in the Mon Calamari Cruiser
June 11, 200915 yr Whats so special about him? I mean, why is this bloke so expensive? And what makes a minifig expensive? (Not talking about chromies, goldies, or silvies) I mean, some are very rare, only ever appeared in one set and look nice but are cheap as chips.

June 11, 200915 yr All of these are the main expensive ones, right? Chrome Gold C-3PO Greedo Cloud City Boba Fett Cloud City Lando Watto Jango Fett Maersk Construction Worker I know there are more, but I can't really think of them off the top of my head.
June 11, 200915 yr I found a few more while searching for the highest price of minifigs on BrickLink (most of these are $20+): 50 Year Anniversary Minifig Classic - Knights Tournament Knight Black, Black Legs with Red Hips, Light Gray Helmet, Black Visor The Joker Geonosian With Wings Princess Leia Mace Windu, Non-Light-Up Emperor Palpatine (Imperial Inspection) Ninja - Green Princess Princess Leia (Cloud City) Chancellor Palpatine Luminara Unduli with Light-Up Lightsaber Complete Assembly Killer Croc Senate Commando Jabba the Hutt (Complete Assembly) More here: http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?pg=1&a...mp;searchSort=B EDIT: I'll add some expensive used minifigs later.
