Every figure is worth exactly what you're willing to pay for it, and not a cent more.
So glad I got her at retail.

She seems to be going for between $40-$60 on the evilbay

She didn’t leave the company though, she still works for WWE Japan as an ambassador and trainer. While she isn’t on screen I don’t see why she couldn’t come back. I think she was just homesick. Still would’ve loved a Kabuki warriors battle pack before they ended those.

I unfortunately missed out on this figure because retail never got elite 73 in my area and if they did it was during the height of the pandemic when I wasn’t going to stores and I never got around to ordering it of Amazon

How much is it worth to me? Maybe I’d buy it for like $5. And that’s a big maybe. It’d probably go like this. “Ooh, an elite for $5. Regardless of who it is that’s a good deal. But do I need or want it? No, no I don’t so I’ll leave it here for the next guy.”

I just bought a used one in mint condition for $27. I would rather a MOC but you gotta take the chance when you get it. Her prices are crazy.

Only seen her once at retail when it was available at retail. Otherwise, I purchased quite a few of them when they were dirt cheap on Ringside during a sale in 2019. Can’t remember if it was Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Black Friday 2.0, Christmas, or the WrestleMania sale. Then I got another on the Bay (just to keep MOC) last year after she went back to Japan for about $30-$35.

I paid $21 and change after tax at WalMart when she was first released and that is all I would be willing to pay for her. There’s very few figures I would be willing to pay more than the MSRP for and those I preorder from RSC. Personally I don’t feel any figure is worth the prices people ask for on the secondary market.

Yeah, her price absolutely jumped when she left the active roster. It's one of the best female wrestler figures they've done, and it's Kairi, so I think it's worth paying it now because judging by the Elite aftermarket the price is only going to get more ridiculous.
Still upset we couldn't get a Kabukis Kairi made, but I have an extra of her that I'll probably get a custom made with.

She also got married, I'd imagine that was the biggest reason. The door's obviously open if she wants to be an active wrestler again but if she's being paid well for public appearances, training, and (last I saw on Twitter) commentary spots, I can't blame her for wanting to step back from the ring. Especially if they ever get NXT Japan up and running.

She warmed shelves for a little while here. I bought 2 but she was always the last one of the set to sell. Its weird how many of the older shelfwarmers have skyrocketed in value lately.

That is weird, but I wish I could say the same. For some reason around my area all the women’s elites sell out super quick. I’m gonna be on the hunt for rhea and zelina once I see other people start finding them 😂

I only saw this once in stores -- it's a GREAT figure. Better than Io in my opinion...

The only one that seemed to move was the Naomi from the wave with Billy Graham. I only seen her four times on the pegs and in all instances she was gone the next time I was at those Targets. Also the Carmella from the Fan Central (?) set. Although that whole set sold out within a day at the one Walmart I saw it at.

Yeah she sit on the shelves in my area for at least a month or two before they were all gone. Just like others have said most of the women figures sit for a decent amount of time around me. I thought for sure Io would sell quick but I still see her at a couple Targets.
