What do you think its worth? Give me a dollar figure you think something like this is worth?

Id also rather have one MIB so I can take it out and look at it, the MISB is cool but you dont get to check the figure out, kinda sucks!

Ill probably end up passing on it, unless the guy drops the price. Its just a huge ammount of money for that thing...then I gotta pay more if I want it graded... Im sure you guys are right...not a good deal...

Hmmm, maybe I will check them out! That sounds pretty good. So Pete, in your opinion, the $1000 price tag is not worth it for the 1/55 Elintseeker MISB? You wouldnt touch it for that? From a collectors aspest AS WELL as if you were trying to make money off of it?

Ill keep the shop info to myself, thanx! The economic downturn is bad, true...but this is the "holy grail" of the Robotech series. AFA graded, should fetch at least $2000. I need to give it some thought, thats soooo much money for a freaking toy!! LOL! Its not really comparable to the Yamatos at all. This is a lot older and a whole lot rarer...

Im not a fan of the Yamatos. I like the old school "chunkey" ones, they are the ones that I grew up with and to me they are a lot better, the Yamatos are thinner and smaller and have to be taken appart to transform. Nothing like thick plastic and metal with the sharp CLICK and the feel of the 1/55. I wouldnt get the Yamato. I am just considering this one Elintseeker. Its so much to spend on a figure, its insane to me...but this is a super duper rare fig. I dont know what would be worth more $$ in Robotech or Transformers than this piece. This has to be so incredibly rare MISB with a c9.5 box, I mean who actually has one of these?

I dont have pictures, I saw it in a shop yesterday and been thinking about it. I dont collect valkys but a Robotech fan. I would like to keep it for a while just for the coolness of the figure and it's rarity but may sell it one day and it's been hard to find a price value. MIB ones seem to go for around $800, I would think a MISB one should be around $1300-$1500 and a AFA graded at least $2000...

So I have come across one of these. Robotech Macross Elintseeker Valkyrie from 1984. Its MISB and the box seems to be a 9.5 or 10 from looking at it briefly. Yellowed tape sealed on both sides, clear window, sharp corners and edges. The guy wants $1000 for it. I would like to know what would it be worth as is, and if I buy it, I plan to get it AFA graded, so as a 9-10 AFA graded what would it be worth? Although I may just keep it, Id like to know what you guys think its worth it both states. Thanks for your time and input!!!
