Hi all, I'm not sure if there's a spot used for this, but I wanted to get your thoughts. I have this set still MOC in my closet. It is a TRU exclusive 6-pack complete set of Mattel Basic Series 1 figures. I can't seem to find any comps on eBay, and it's 10+ years old now (which I can't believe!). I know that many of these figures aren't too desirable although I remember how hyped everyone here was anticipating Mattel's official takeover of the WWE line. Considering its rarity and significance of the start to Mattel's launch, what do you think is the value of this is?  |

You might be able to get $160-200 for it, but shipping will be expensive

I think this falls into the category of whatever anyone would be willing to pay. It’s essentially the packaging that is valuable here, as all of those figures can still be had for around retail or slightly more. It’s a great piece for historical purposes.

I'm not personally attached to it, and wouldn't mind selling eventually, but I'd rather hold off because I seriously doubt there are many out there still intact after all this time. It's also an exclusive for company which no longer really exists. It's not talked about too much, but I think it could end up being one of the highest valued WWE/Mattel sets. |

I think down the line a few years it will be worth more than $300.

Remember those annoying Triple H scans? Theres another box set that is similar which I have in the collection which is a champions 4 pack edition including basics of Stone Cold w/Wing Eagle Title, The Rock w/Attitude Title, Rey Mysterio w/World Title, and Cena w/Spinner Title. The box art commemorates all 4 superstars as champions.

The weird thing is I NEVER hear about this set. I know series 1 is old news, but you'd think a set like would get talked about more - a lot people probably don't even know it exists! |

A lot of people's first ever Mattel WWE purchase was something from Basic 1, so it might definitely hold some sentimental value down the line. A lot of the Toys R Us Basic multipacks are getting expensive now like the one with Stone Cold, Vince McMahon, The Rock, Sting and Ultimate Warrior. |

A lot of the old TRU Exclusive Kenner/Hasbro Batman 4 packs have skyrocketed in value. When they were new they retailed for $20. Now they are all over $100 or more |
