Title: How much is a MISB Defiant worth according to you?
Post by: latinjoe22 on February 13, 2014, 01:44:03 PM: I want to know how much you believe or know that a Defiant Space Shuttle Complexe, still sealed in the box (never been opened) is worth .

I'd like to have as many of your own expertise as I can get on this matter ;D Thanks!

Post by: ARROW on February 13, 2014, 03:21:06 PM: $500 for the cheap, climbing to $1500.
What I'd call it "worth" , but not what I'd be willing to pay.

Of course any MSIB depends on the condition of the box since that's really all you care about if you're not planning to open it.

If you want a MINT Defiant, better to buy one that you can see is mint. MSIB is somewhat of a gamble. Those parts have been probably bumping around together for a long time are are scratched as hell. Also, the paperwork and decals are likely to be buggered.

As for me, not collecting vintage g.i joes at all. If i had the opertunity in front of me to buy a very, very nice MISB Defiant. ( just because of the memory from when i was a kid being in zellers going down the toy isle. And i pass buy this box, i look over and the box is taller then me. " MOM!, MOM! I fuckin want this!!!!"

NO DICE

I would pay 1000$ if the box was @ least an 8 out of 10 condition.
