00:00:48pop mart who also made their spin-off crybaby toys with lububus peek behind them crybaby toys are

00:00:55hoping to replace them they were in high demand during 2025 but towards the end of the year

00:01:09interest increased like lububus they're also not conventionally adorable as the name suggests

00:01:16they're all constantly crying oh they're all right captain they're just happy

00:01:22quite a few rare ones can fetch a high price and they're likely to appreciate they also have an

00:01:28interesting backstory behind them a thai artist nisa mod srikandi created them while mourning her dog

00:01:35and they serve as a symbol that it's totally okay to cry i never wipe my tears away i'm not

00:01:41ashamed of

00:01:42them i wear them proudly like small wet salty badges of emotional truth number five stanley cups and

00:01:50collectible water bottles decline the stanley company was founded in 1915 two years after william stanley jr

00:01:58invented a steel insulated water bottle over a century later they exploded in popularity with stanley's

00:02:05bottles becoming viral sensations is there a void in your life fill it with cup

00:02:12big dumb cup have women killed for this cup almost and a bunch they became more than simply water

00:02:21bottles they were a fashion accessory eventually this led to their downfall with people spending at

00:02:27least 45 dollars on a cup they are part of a much larger ecosystem around which we market and brand

00:02:34and

00:02:34sell health as a a luxury lifestyle that you buy your way into people have become increasingly critical

00:02:41of them and since 2024 demand for the cups has plummeted the company has tried to fix this for example

00:02:48it collaborated with post malone in 2025 none of their efforts proved successful so far though thankfully i was

00:02:56thirsty enough to drink from meg's untrendy container it is really good because that's when it hit me

00:03:03what is this water it's not the cup it's what's inside that counts number four jelly cat toys explode

00:03:11this plushie producer was launched in 1999 and has since earned major praise for its products

00:03:18their toys are highly sought after often fetching a steep price they've doubled in value oh what kind

00:03:25of figures are we talking not just doubled some of them are tripled some of them have gone up 10

00:03:30times

00:03:31so for example even the new one in harrods the set the tea set which is going for about 100

00:03:36pounds

00:03:37in recent years their demand has soared due to online trends additionally they don't mass produce toys

00:03:44they release limited small batches of each design making certain plushies a nightmare to find the

00:03:51furthest i've traveled to pick up a jelly cat was probably the center of london um but all over the

00:03:56uk really and there's so many different places i'm yet to go in june 2025 they decided to reduce their

00:04:02supply to independent shops in the uk this was part of an effort to elevate their brand making their toys

00:04:08more exclusive so they've been fashionable for a while now but their peak is likely ahead of them

00:04:14it is you are customers who make us what we are so we're very appreciative of your trust and

00:04:22friendship on on this journey number four luxury watches decline during the covid pandemic the price

00:04:30of luxury watches reached an immense high with people inside all day they decided to spend their

00:04:36disposable income on things like watches instead of traveling or eating out they say time is money

00:04:42but some seem to have taken this saying a little too seriously enter luxury watches exquisite time

00:04:51pieces that cost more than a small country's gdp economies have had a while to recover now

00:04:57making fancy watches cheaper it's not quite a hard decline instead it feels more like the market

00:05:03returning to normal after a massive peak prices of luxury watches plunged by 32 percent from a 2022 peak

00:05:11rolex prices fell by 27 percent on the bright side this makes it a great time to expand your watch

00:05:18collection they probably won't make you a quick profit but given how sought after they've been

00:05:23historically in the long term you're likely to make your money back if you've got 10 20 000 to burn

00:05:29you

00:05:29really want to watch you're probably going to go to the resale market because the watch that you want is

00:05:33going to be available there and so the prices on the resale market have then gone up because there's

00:05:38more people going to that market number three magic the gathering explode since it was first released

00:05:44over 30 years ago in 1993 it's become one of the world's most lucrative trading card games this has led

00:05:51to them collaborating with tons of franchises there's really only one word to describe it

00:05:59if this trend continues someday almost all fictional characters will be in magic in 2025 a final fantasy

00:06:07set was released which became the most expensive set in the game's history you might expect it to

00:06:13decline in value after this but that's not the case in 2026 there are even more collaborations lined up

00:06:20this means that the market is being increasingly dominated by collectors we each have something

00:06:26special that gives us strength together we become legendary unfortunately for players that means it's

00:06:33getting ridiculously expensive additionally you can't opt out of playing non-magic properties the

00:06:39majority are legal and competitive dude it was complete brutality you've never seen anything so ruthless it

00:06:45was seriously almost hard to watch number three classic cars decline a lot of people would expect

00:06:51something as charming as an old-fashioned car to always maintain its value given it's in working order

00:06:57according to hagerty's guide almost 80 percent of all classic cars either decreased in value or remained

00:07:04the same in 2025 here it's first time we've seen that in a while if you look year-to-date

00:07:08classic car prices

00:07:10are down seven percent it is the worst performing collectible asset class right now this trend is

00:07:16also caused by a boom during the pandemic where they rose rapidly in value another theory for the

00:07:22decline is that people only buy classic cars they remember as a kid so as time goes on cars from

00:07:28the

00:07:2860s and 70s are becoming less popular car companies are also manufacturing a ton of new vehicles which tend

00:07:35to be more fuel efficient therefore lowering maintenance costs is it the hybrid engine that

00:07:40goes for miles and miles what if it's all of that and more number two retro games explode not only

00:07:50are

00:07:50new video games becoming more costly but old ones are too as gamers grow up they become nostalgic for

00:07:57the consoles they played as kids this means consoles will have phases of being cheap then demand increases

00:08:03as gamers grow older and they suddenly spike at this point a cynical person might think that you

00:08:08are offering just what we need when we need it most that person be right rupert supply and demand

00:08:16and it won't be cheap this time these systems have all been phased out of production years ago

00:08:21so demand increases but supply does not take genuine old pokemon cartridges for example there's another

00:08:28credit on pikachu's charge account we've got to grab it i know we gotta grab some rare pokemon for the

00:08:35boss but it wouldn't be such a bad idea if we grabbed a little bite to eat what it they

00:08:39can sell for

00:08:40hundreds even without a box an unopened copy will fetch a far higher price at least it's easier than

00:08:48ever to emulate retro games making physical copies only collector items many many hours spent playing this

00:08:54as a kid and that's precisely the point a lot of these people again since it's mostly nostalgia based

00:09:02are buying their childhood back number two funko pops decline well the bubble has popped no no you just

00:09:11think it has during the 2010s it felt like these toys were in every single shop now they've been on

00:09:17their way

00:09:17out for some time in 2025 funko's earnings dropped immensely and they're now in a difficult financial

00:09:24situation this is due to a handful of reasons like them oversaturating the market with products people

00:09:30are also just bored with them so they've moved on to other trends it's no longer collectible

00:09:41fans also criticized the company for a lack of creativity with newer models being only slightly

00:09:47different from their prior products still the rarest pops can sell for tens of thousands like the

00:09:52rare golden kinderjoy harry potter really hey she's only interested in you because she thinks you're the

00:10:00chosen one but i am the chosen one okay sorry um kidding number one cassettes explode what is the appeal

00:10:10of cassette tapes is it the audio quality is it the nostalgia what's going on

00:10:17well it's certainly not the audio quality vinyl has been popular again for years now despite their

00:10:23inconvenience people love them now cassette tapes are experiencing a similar resurgence

00:10:30they are a clunky way to listen to music plus they're fairly low in quality but that doesn't stop people

00:10:35from loving them

00:10:36people who weren't even born when cassettes were the norm are feeding the rebound with nine percent of

00:10:42gen z music listeners purchasing a cassette in the past year mainstream artists like taylor swift sell

00:10:48their new albums on cassettes now with many fetching a reasonable price there are a variety of reasons

00:10:54people would buy cassettes a main one is that people simply like collecting physical music for their favorite

00:11:00artists and albums it's also nostalgic plus can serve as a fashion accessory if you're going for a

00:11:06retro look livia alexander's sister collects them i was confused because she doesn't have a cassette

00:11:11player so she can't listen to them no i've been working on getting her a cassette player for either her

00:11:16birthday or christmas number one labubu's decline oh my god like the one that i want like it's sold out

00:11:25it's so hard to get the labubu craze peaked in 2024 and 25. these toy monsters are produced by pop

00:11:32mart

00:11:32which played a large part in making them a global brand it all began when a member of blackpink was

00:11:37spotted wearing one then they exploded almost overnight as 2025 drew to a close it became obvious

00:11:44that labubu's peak was behind them the prince of labubu character luck launched in april this year

00:11:52peaked in june when it was valued above 500 yuan or close to 17 dollars on the secondary market however

00:11:59it has now dropped to less than half the prices of other characters in the series do have reportedly

00:12:05fallen if you've got any rare labubu's lying around now might be the time to sell them pop mart is

00:12:10likely

00:12:10trying to prevent this decline given how many different products the company has they're probably

00:12:15safe to keep making a profit with fewer labubu's if you go to pop mart's website you're gonna see a

00:12:22lot

00:12:23more ips some of the ips they signed a deal with the artist some of the ips were developed directly

00:12:30within their teams what's your favorite thing to collect and do you collect it for the value or

00:12:35simply the fun all right get ready because our next video is going to sort fact from fiction in the

00:12:43world of collectibles welcome to ms mojo and today we'll be counting down our picks for the most

00:12:57commonly held beliefs about collecting and collectibles that may or may not be true seymour

00:13:02are you all right yeah that's just uh it's uh it's very valuable number 10 myth popularity guarantees

00:13:12value it's a simple notion of supply and demand supply and demand you control the supply and you

00:13:18keep the demand high agreed good now there's an underground vault where they put all the stones

00:13:25they buy up to keep off the market if a produced item proves to be popular during its heyday such

00:13:30as

00:13:30a beanie baby or the saturday night fever soundtrack then the price point is going to reflect that

00:13:35popularity while it's hot years later copies of that hit john travolta movie ost flood that same market

00:13:41for pennies on the dollar this doesn't reflect on the popularity of saturday night fever as a film

00:13:52or a soundtrack as much as it does on the thousands upon thousands of lp records that flooded the market

00:13:57back in the day and sure some beanie babies may have appreciated in value over the years but this

00:14:02serves as an exception rather than a rule for years nothing's been hotter than those cuddly little

00:14:08animals with cute little names almonds i don't have almonds right number nine fact distinguishing

00:14:15originals from reproductions is key this is the second time i've had to reclaim my property from you

00:14:20that belongs in a museum so do you it doesn't matter whether you happen to be a professional

00:14:27antiques dealer or just somebody with a personal hobby and collection at home

00:14:31the value of said collection whatever it is will rely on quality yes the museum will buy them as

00:14:39usual no questions else yes they are nice worth at least the price of a ticket to america original

00:14:44pieces of art old school toys or vintage lp pressings will usually be worth more than repressings or

00:14:50reproductions smart collectors will know all of the tricks and be able to spot all the differences

00:14:55between fakes and collectible pieces thank god it's fake

00:15:04see you can tell with the cross sections this knowledge often comes with trial and error making

00:15:10mistakes and learning from them so that the next time a question of authenticity comes up you'll be

00:15:15reading number eight myth cleaning always improves value original hand-painted face natural dyed

00:15:22blankets stitched vest little rip fixable different myths apply to different sectors of the collectible

00:15:28and antique community those who collect vintage coins for example will tell you to never shine up

00:15:34those old bits of currency found in the wild that's where we could retail it for i think that would

00:15:38be

00:15:38what we can get for it to me that seems awful low if this thing wasn't cleaned we'll be talking

00:15:43six figures

00:15:44This is due primarily to mistakes made during the process, such as using the wrong cleaning

00:15:48solution or accidentally removing markings or features that are intrinsically linked to the

00:15:53value. It may be true that the shining up of certain collectibles could brighten them up to

00:15:57the eyes of a potential buyer, but it's also important to know when to do this, how to proceed,

00:16:03and most importantly, when to leave them alone. It is such a shame this coin was clean because

00:16:08this guy would have been walking away with, you know, $100,000 easily. Just leave your coins alone,

00:16:13please. Number seven, fact, condition is king. Different collectors groups usually have their

00:16:19own unique grading scales and methods for judging the condition of an item. Importance of grading for

00:16:25the seller is that you want these people to come back. Every time you list a record, you have a

00:16:30chance

00:16:30to build a relationship. LP records, for example, can utilize the goldmine standard record grading

00:16:35system that classifies LPs from mint to poor. It's rare for an LP to earn a grade of mint,

00:16:41since even sealed vintage pieces fall victim to unavoidable shelfware and damage.

00:16:46But the crack is so tight, it's completely inaudible. But a tight hair crack is just that,

00:16:52a crack. I don't collect cracked records. I only pay premium on mint records. Poor, on the other hand,

00:17:00essentially means broken, making it inherently worthless. It's that middle ground that then

00:17:05becomes all-important. A gradation between near-mint and fair that determines a final price point.

00:17:11I bet that doesn't even play properly past one of these, uh, gouges because I can, that stops with

00:17:18my fingernail. So there you go, there's, there's a pour.

00:17:21Number six, myth. Any repair instantly destroys all value.

00:17:26Your father's dagger. I had it cleaned up and polished.

00:17:32What would I do with this?

00:17:34We've already discussed how the cleaning of certain collectibles can depreciate their value,

00:17:38but is that always the case? Well, not really. It all depends upon what you're collecting,

00:17:44and whether or not fixing some flaws can wind up netting you some big bucks.

00:17:48We just did a live appraisal about this piece, but one thing I've talked about for years,

00:17:51doing my appraisals for Antiques Roadshow, is how much better certain pieces would look if they're

00:17:55clean that I felt this was a perfect candidate. Take vintage timepieces, for example. Nobody wants

00:18:00to buy a broken watch, so ensuring that a valuable clock or watch runs on time then makes it worthwhile

00:18:06on the secondhand market. What's the matter, church? What's the matter? Then why did you want me to go to

00:18:14the church? You said it was important. This can also be true with vintage automobiles, which are big

00:18:20ticket items that probably need to actually run in order for them to be desirable to a potential

00:18:25buyer. Number 5. Fact. Certificates of Authenticity Build Confidence

00:18:30As a charlotte, I painted fake masterpieces. I began, he said, as low-trendy.

00:18:39The sad truth with collecting anything is that forgeries and fakes exist,

00:18:43so it's important that anybody putting down their hard-earned money can rely on the claims made to

00:18:48them by a dealer. This is where certificates of authenticity can come into play, since they can

00:19:01help prove to a potential buyer that what they're about to pick up is real and not a reproduction.

00:19:06These certificates are often used for comic books, movie props, or autographs. The industry uses third

00:19:12parties who issue certificates of authenticity, while some claim to use scientific methods,

00:19:18there's no government oversight or standard. They're statements from professionals that speak

00:19:23to each piece's quality and value. COAs, like anything, should also be inspected for truth in

00:19:29their claims. But reputable dealers often include these for higher ticketed items in their inventories.

00:19:34I guess I never really appreciated how exquisitely crafted they are. And each one comes with its

00:19:41own certificate of authenticity. Number four, myth. Antique furniture is always valuable.

00:19:48Grandma, look at this. It's got like little flowers all over it. It's very pretty. Is it something

00:19:53special? The collectibles market is a volatile one, with the ever-changing tastes of the public

00:19:58often contributing to value, supply, and demand. Home furnishings in particular rely on trends.

00:20:04Oh dear, that's no good. See, this is from our winter stock, where supply and demand have a big

00:20:08problem. That means that some pieces, no matter how old, won't be able to compete with pieces that

00:20:14are more in line with what consumers want in their homes today. The styles of the 1970s, for instance,

00:20:19were often daring with their adoptions of avocado green, safety orange, and brown. Lots and lots of

00:20:25brown. This may not always translate to modern tastes, regardless of how nicely those pieces have aged,

00:20:31or how limited they were in production. It works. It says home to me.

00:20:35All right. All right. Well, let Harry and Sally be the judge. What do you think?

00:20:42It's nice.

00:20:43Number three, fact. Actual sales data, not asking prices, determines market value.

00:20:50We're going to quote Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi here.

00:20:52There will always be sellers out there that ask an outlandishly expensive price for an item,

00:20:57just like there will always be an impatient fool willing to pay said price.

00:21:01Fool, I knew that you were going to say that.

00:21:04Who's the more foolish? Fool or the fool who follows him?

00:21:07This may briefly skew the market value of that item, but it's actual sales history that winds up

00:21:13determining asking prices for reputable dealers and their inventory.

00:21:16Have you done any kind of inventory recently?

00:21:19The car's not from our lot, ma'am.

00:21:21But how do you know that for sure without doing a...

00:21:22Well, I would know. I'm the executive sales manager.

00:21:26These professionals realize that they have to view historical data in order to properly set their prices.

00:21:32The outliers from eBay, where fluctuations of insane highs and lows are too chaotic, just aren't reliable.

00:21:38Number two, myth. Age alone determines value.

00:21:42What do I do, you ask?

00:21:44Oh, I do what all fathers do. I take care of things.

00:21:49The time, mostly. All the time in the universe.

00:21:53Let's face it, father time comes for us all.

00:21:56Everything ages, including stuff that we loved as kids.

00:21:59These are mine, but I'm going away now.

00:22:03So I need someone really special to play with them.

00:22:07This doesn't necessarily mean that older antiques are valuable antiques.

00:22:11Since it's desirability that serves as a deciding factor for pricing.

00:22:15Dixieland music may have once been popular, but those records, which were frequently pressed on fragile 78 RPM shellac discs,

00:22:23are a niche market that's largely aged out of collectability status.

00:22:27There aren't no other records like that.

00:22:30Actually, I have the original 78 in my collection.

00:22:34It's one of maybe five known copies.

00:22:37Elvis Presley may be the king of rock and roll, but it's primarily his son recordings and rarer RCA outings

00:22:43that have retained worth,

00:22:44as opposed to equally old but far more common LPs.

00:22:47Knowledgeable collectors can often find worthwhile pieces lurking right under their noses in the modern day.

00:22:53This track alone by Memphis Mini is worth about $500 if you own the original 78.

00:22:59I know the guy who owns the original and lent it for use on this reissue.

00:23:03Number one.

00:23:04Fact.

00:23:05Pop culture drives value spikes.

00:23:07Oh, did they hit anybody's Instagram, Facebook, Hopscotch, Reddit, anything?

00:23:12None, none, none.

00:23:12We live in a world that's often driven by social media trends via avenues like Instagram and TikTok.

00:23:17These trends, combined with the ebbs and flows of pop culture, can often mean big business for the world of

00:23:23collectibles.

00:23:25I'd like to buy a mint condition Spider-Man number one, please.

00:23:30And I'd like an hour on the holodeck with seven of nine.

00:23:35The incredible rise of the Funko brand, for example,

00:23:38has proven that there's no corner of pop culture that can't be marketed to an audience.

00:23:43So you can see a bunch of the different comedy movies on here,

00:23:45like Zoolander, Dodgeball, a lot of Will Ferrell, Mean Girls.

00:23:50The next section of the movies is more action movies.

00:23:53Fandom has grown in more ways than ever before,

00:23:56with each new generation craving the latest collectible fad.

00:24:00Thus, buyers can expect price spikes from sellers that closely monitor these trends in order to set their prices.

00:24:06John, one thing I can promise you, even in this market,

00:24:09is that I never ask my clients to judge me on my winners.

00:24:12I ask them to judge me on my losers because I have so few.

00:24:16What do you collect?

00:24:17Or are you looking to become a dealer?

00:24:21Sometimes, all it takes is one blast of nostalgia to send the world into collector mode.

00:24:27Don't believe me?

00:24:28Watch this.

00:24:30Clyde?

00:24:31Clyde.

00:24:32Yes?

00:24:33I've won one of these in the eighth grade.

00:24:35Awesome.

00:24:36Welcome to Ms. Mojo.

00:24:38And today, we're counting down our picks for items that have retained not only their emotional connection with buyers,

00:24:44but also their financial worth on the second-hand market.

00:24:48Omar, I've collected hundreds of antique cars in a theory that they don't make them like they used to.

00:24:54Number 10.

00:24:55Lisa Frank's Stationery.

00:24:57There's all these folders and pens and backpacks and stationery and stickers.

00:25:02Of course, stickers.

00:25:03We should never forget that practically everything is nostalgic for somebody out there in the world.

00:25:08As the years go by, more items from comparatively recent decades accrue vintage currency within the minds of young consumers.

00:25:16Rainbows, and then hearts, music notes, teddy bears, unicorns, stars, color, fantasy, jewels, glints, everything that makes a kid happy,

00:25:30smile.

00:25:30Lisa Frank's stationery was extremely popular back in the 90s,

00:25:35which means that adults in the modern day with disposable income can now purchase NOS, or new old stock, to

00:25:42their heart's content.

00:25:44Original examples of this retro 80s and 90s designed stationery can go for inflated prices on the second-hand market

00:25:51as well,

00:25:52depending upon how pre-loved these items were in their heyday.

00:25:55The stickers were so cool.

00:25:57The colors were awesome.

00:25:58I gotta find more.

00:25:59So I go to the store, and wow, there's tons of awesome Lisa Frank stuff.

00:26:04I gotta have it.

00:26:05What more can I say?

00:26:06Number nine, Hess Trucks and Toys.

00:26:08The fact that Hess is no longer a gas station is irrelevant.

00:26:13For many people, it was never about that Hess was a gas station.

00:26:17It's about Hess produced this really amazing toy that, in many cases, for some people who are collecting it,

00:26:23accrue value over time, but for others, it was just a great Christmas toy.

00:26:26A true classic never goes out of style, especially when they're manufactured as well as many of the Hess toy

00:26:32line.

00:26:33This energy company not only sells gas to its consumers, but has also delivered smiles to girls and boys since

00:26:391964.

00:26:51Toy trucks, planes, rescue vehicles, and more all seem to have one thing in common.

00:26:57Specifically, the sturdiness of their construction.

00:27:01In fact, the person writing this video can personally attest to how much their children enjoy playing with these quick

00:27:07-moving and engaging little vehicles.

00:27:09Additionally, vintage models from the 1960s can fetch a couple of thousand dollars today, if you can find one.

00:27:16Hey, I need some trucks, man. And you got somebody go, I can get you some trucks. I can get

00:27:20you some trucks.

00:27:21Listen, meet me by the back door, by the clock, I'll get you two trucks. But I need four. I

00:27:25can get you two. Take it or leave it.

00:27:27Number 8. Magic the Gathering

00:27:30Is there still a place where fun involves thinking, imagining, doing? Some of us think so, and we find it

00:27:38in a game.

00:27:38Some trading card games come and go, while others retain a special place in the hearts and minds of those

00:27:44who played them back in the day.

00:27:45Magic the Gathering was introduced back in 1993 by Wizards of the Coast, a gaming company that eventually purchased the

00:27:53rights to TSR's legendary Dungeons & Dragons brand.

00:27:56It was given away at first, then it was given to local game stores at the time, and eventually it

00:28:02just went on to become a phenomenon.

00:28:04And nowadays, millions is given away yearly in prize money, and people make livings out of playing Magic the Gathering.

00:28:11Magic's rabid fan following could easily be compared to that of D&D.

00:28:16This includes how this subculture is consistently on the hunt for rare and powerful cards for their deck.

00:28:21Magic cards that either proved incredibly useful or were manufactured in small quantities can be considered quite valuable today,

00:28:29as players around the world continue their gaming obsession.

00:28:32These cards are never going to be reprinted.

00:28:36Think of these as fine art, or that first Spider-Man comic, Amazing Fantasy 1.

00:28:42That's done nothing but go up over time.

00:28:44The same has happened with these cards.

00:28:46These cards are collectible cards.

00:28:48So yeah, for the most part, this is just something that you would sit on.

00:28:51This is something that is a long-term investment.

00:28:53Number 7. Coins.

00:28:55According to the prenup...

00:28:57This is ridiculous.

00:28:58Trey gave me that apartment.

00:29:01She gave him her word till death do them part.

00:29:05Some old-school collectibles refuse to go quietly into that good night, and instead live on, passed down through generations.

00:29:14Stamp collecting, for example, continues to thrive today, as does the collecting of rare coins.

00:29:19We're not really talking about those coins that are often advertised on TV, but rather those truly rare pieces from

00:29:26a bygone era.

00:29:28Coins whose existence and history need to be discovered by dedicated research.

00:29:32Heavy dye polishing resulted in the obliteration of the D-mint mark on some pennies, making them highly sought after

00:29:39by collectors.

00:29:40Low-grade examples of these coins can fetch around $500 or more, with uncirculated examples being worth around $10,500

00:29:48if they score in the high mint state range.

00:29:51It would be easy for the average layperson to skip a rare and valuable coin, scattered amongst some random sparrow

00:29:58change.

00:29:58True mint aficionados know what's up, however, and have driven the worth of some rare coins to impressive figures at

00:30:05auction.

00:30:06Uh, I've been around just from here, buying some, and I've actually sold, uh, about an extra $4,000 worth

00:30:13of coins, just from buying and selling here.

00:30:16There you go, man.

00:30:17Number 6. Polly Pockets.

00:30:28It just isn't the same as a phrase that some fans of the Polly Pocket toy line might be repeating,

00:30:35particularly if they're old enough to remember this toy's early 90s glory.

00:30:39That's because the Polly Pockets of today don't really feel like the Polly Pockets of yesteryear.

00:30:43Turn upside down, side up, elevator one, elevator two, that becomes a pool, cool, add a room or two, or

00:30:51three.

00:30:52Those OG examples retained their tiny size and well-developed little worlds, complete with itsy-bitsy accessories.

00:30:59Unfortunately, these accessories could easily be lost, which makes complete versions of some old-school Polly Pockets worth a little

00:31:07bit of coin.

00:31:08The Birthday Party Stamper from 1992, for example, can go for over $500 in mint condition.

00:31:15Typically, if you were to buy this complete on eBay open box, some of them, I don't know if they

00:31:21sell, but some of them are listed as high as around $1,500 American, $1,700, $1,800 Canadian.

00:31:29It's a lot of money.

00:31:31Number 5. Old Tech.

00:31:33They don't make that like they used to.

00:31:39They don't make anything like they used to.

00:31:41Picture it. You're staying over at your grandparents' house, and they're done watching their stories.

00:31:46You walk over to their gigantic television, that doubles as furniture, and flick the on switch for some cathode ray

00:31:53sunshine.

00:31:54Or maybe you've brought your Sega Master System over to a friend's house for the weekend.

00:31:59Old Tech can be big business, and this doesn't only include TVs and retro gaming consoles.

00:32:05I'm sort of an audio geek. Sorry.

00:32:07No, don't apologize. I love you.

00:32:09For that, for being that way. I love it. I'm like that too.

00:32:13A lot of folks go crazy for the Walkman tape players, iPods, or computer systems of their youth.

00:32:18While those who weren't even there for the heyday of these items want to pick them up to figure out

00:32:22how they work.

00:32:23In an age where so much of our media isn't ours, the old school rules.

00:32:28You give me back my Walkman.

00:32:30I never borrowed your Walkman.

00:32:35Well, then I lost it. You buy me one.

00:32:37Number 4. VHS Tapes. Disney and Horror Play Nice.

00:32:41The TV still works, and I know we've seen all our DVDs a hundred times,

00:32:46so this could be the perfect time to break out Staddy's VHS collection.

00:32:51It's something of a misconception that every old school Disney VHS is worth money.

00:32:56Most of them were mass-produced and extremely popular,

00:32:59and thus aren't worth more than a couple bucks secondhand.

00:33:03However, some Disney tapes from the early 80s can be worth something,

00:33:06as well as any copies of the band Song of the South from 1946.

00:33:11But...

00:33:11Do you think we could find it?

00:33:13Find it?

00:33:14Of course we could.

00:33:17But what's the use of speculating on that?

00:33:20When we's going away.

00:33:22This also isn't to say that VHS as a medium is worthless.

00:33:26Far from it, in fact.

00:33:27The horror genre has proven particularly lucrative for tape heads.

00:33:32Particularly rare shot on video efforts such as Spine,

00:33:36Black Devil Doll from Hell, or 555.

00:33:39These tapes are seen as holy grails,

00:33:42and can often switch hands for an obscene amount of money.

00:33:45I mean, it wouldn't be nice for me to let you get cold.

00:33:48You being a friend of Linda's,

00:33:51us having such a good lunch together,

00:33:54it just wouldn't be nice.

00:33:56Number three, vinyl records.

00:33:59Uh, this is the best collection I've ever seen.

00:34:02I wouldn't doubt it.

00:34:03I hope you know I can only afford to buy a few of these.

00:34:05I mean, this is...

00:34:06Like I told you on the phone,

00:34:08I'm only interested in selling the collection as a whole.

00:34:11A lot of factors go into what makes a vinyl record valuable,

00:34:14from the condition of the wax to the scarcity of its pressing.

00:34:18Modern audiophile tendencies have helped fuel the resurging vinyl market for years.

00:34:23Yet some of the priciest records remain those released in bygone decades.

00:34:27The Butcher cover of The Beatles yesterday and today, for example,

00:34:31can be worth big money, depending on the state of its jacket.

00:34:35These are unicorn records.

00:34:37I've never even seen some of these.

00:34:38Elsewhere, other valuable records include albums from the Prague and Psych worlds

00:34:43from artists that may not have enjoyed success while they were around,

00:34:47but eventually adopted cult status from the underground.

00:34:49All of those elements go into what makes vinyl obsessives get out there and dig.

00:34:54Dude! Dude!

00:34:57I've never seen anybody look at anything the way you look at that record.

00:35:00I felt like it was important you should have it.

00:35:02I was like...

00:35:02Number two, Funko.

00:35:04We saw people that would never come into our booth buying products,

00:35:07and I think we knew right then and there that we had something on our hands.

00:35:10We've actually hit something with, as far as design and aesthetics,

00:35:13that resonated with collectors.

00:35:14And from that day on, we just went around and signed as many licenses as I possibly can.

00:35:18We realize that Funko Pops aren't really action figures

00:35:21and shouldn't be lumped into how that equally popular market moves and shakes.

00:35:25Yet both of these collectibles often utilize their exclusive or limited runs

00:35:30to hype up their rarity and value.

00:35:32And then Barnes & Noble, they can drop their Harry Potter 9,500 piece exclusive just fine.

00:35:37Target can drop their two 9,500 piece exclusives just fine.

00:35:41But then you get to these smaller retailers where Toy Temple's getting an Ellie 1,200 piece Leroy,

00:35:45and Evens getting a 1,200 piece Goku, Chalice getting a 5,000 piece Freer,

00:35:49and the Naruto at 9,500 pieces.

00:35:53Limited edition Funko drops are nothing new,

00:35:55and often show up at places such as San Diego Comic-Con.

00:35:59The race and fight to be the first in line can be a stressful one,

00:36:02while the agony of defeat definitely feels real for those who desperately want a certain Funko,

00:36:08but might have to pay big time on the secondary market.

00:36:11Collecting should be joyful, but sometimes it isn't all fun and games.

00:36:15They capture the essence of our childhoods and just some of our most favorite characters.

00:36:23And, you know, people are willing to do a lot for the stories that they love and the characters that

00:36:27they love.

00:36:28Number 1. Pokemon Cards

00:36:30The Pokemon Trading Card Game Tour is coming to your area,

00:36:33and you and your friends are all invited.

00:36:35Learn to play the Pokemon Trading Card Game.

00:36:38Gotta catch the cards!

00:36:39The Pokemon brand made headlines for all of the wrong reasons in summer 2025.

00:36:43This was when a collectibles store in New Bedford, Massachusetts,

00:36:48suffered a break-in, not for money or jewelry, but Pokemon cards.

00:36:52Over $100,000 worth of Pokemon cards to be exact.

00:36:56They knew exactly what items to target and what they were going for.

00:36:59Owners say the stolen items have serial numbers that are now flagged as stolen,

00:37:04but the cases have now been emptied and the cameras are still rolling.

00:37:08This speaks not only to the brand's continued popularity,

00:37:12but also the lengths some will go to to capitalize in a financial capacity.

00:37:17Cards that were produced in a limited capacity for special events

00:37:19can go for substantial amounts of money.

00:37:22While Pokemon's legacy as an enduring brand is tethered to the nostalgia

00:37:26of every kid who once dreamt of catching them all.

00:37:29You teach me and I'll teach you

00:37:33Pokemon!

00:37:35Gotta catch them all!

00:37:37Gotta catch them all!

00:37:38Pokemon!

00:37:39What do you think is going to be the next great collectible?

00:37:4290s delightful stuff.

00:37:46And real unicorns.

00:37:46Scrunchies, gel pens, trapper keepers.

00:37:51Not every collectible becomes a goldmine.

00:37:54In fact, many crash and burn.

00:37:59Quit HitClip!

00:38:00Don't make me flop!

00:38:02HitClip, micro music system.

00:38:04You can collect them all.

00:38:05Welcome to Miss Mojo!

00:38:06And today we're counting down our picks for collectibles

00:38:09that were expected to become huge, but failed completely.

00:38:12Awesome!

00:38:14Star Wars The Force Awakens action figures, each sold separately

00:38:16for children and adult collectors.

00:38:17Star Wars!

00:38:19And let the wars be with you!

00:38:23Number 10.

00:38:24Go-Go's Crazy Bones.

00:38:26You can collect or trade over 80 characters in 5 colors.

00:38:29Play games like Battle!

00:38:31Or KO!

00:38:32Our first entry didn't fail entirely.

00:38:35During the late 90s and 2000s,

00:38:37they were a massive trend in school playgrounds.

00:38:39By the 2010s, they had been almost completely forgotten about by most people.

00:38:44What's this game they're playing?

00:38:45This game?

00:38:46It's called Online.

00:38:47All you have to do is throw your character close to the line.

00:38:50Whenever Go-Go lands close to the line, he gets the point.

00:38:52Now especially rare, Go-Go's can sell for a decent sum.

00:38:56Maybe a few hundred dollars.

00:38:57They're definitely worth far less than they used to be, though,

00:39:00with commons being worth pennies.

00:39:02All new characters with new colors and awesome laser finishes.

00:39:05Amazing additions to your collection.

00:39:08If you have any bulk boxes of Go-Go's lying around,

00:39:11it could be worth maybe a few dollars at best.

00:39:13Unsealed packs can also sell for a few bucks,

00:39:16but when you account for inflation,

00:39:18they've not appreciated a significant amount.

00:39:21Clearly a point for our team.

00:39:22See my partner?

00:39:23That should be.

00:39:24That's what we're doing.

00:39:25Number 9.

00:39:26Stretch Screamers.

00:39:28This would be great to have after a meeting with the network executives.

00:39:37You'd be forgiven if you had never heard of these electronic toys before,

00:39:41as they're now considered exceedingly obscure.

00:39:44They had a decent amount of buzz surrounding them in the early 2000s.

00:39:48At one point, they even had their own Happy Meal toy line.

00:39:54Stretch Screamers are at McDonald's.

00:39:56There's one in every Happy Meal.

00:39:58Their name tells you all you need to know about them.

00:40:00They're monsters with stretchy rubber arms.

00:40:03If that wasn't exciting enough for you, they also scream.

00:40:06The majority are now worth roughly $20 or less.

00:40:11Electronic Stretch Screamers.

00:40:12Scream when you stretch them.

00:40:14Rare and unsealed ones fetch a higher price,

00:40:16but even the least common peak at a few hundred dollars.

00:40:19There's almost no collector scene surrounding them,

00:40:22making them simply niche discontinued toys.

00:40:25All new Gut Bustin' Monsters!

00:40:28Gross!

00:40:28Electronic Stretch Screamers!

00:40:30Fight them!

00:40:31Stretch them!

00:40:31Number 8.

00:40:33iDog

00:40:33Adorable robot pets were a craze in the 2000s.

00:40:37At the forefront of this fad was the iDog.

00:40:39Rock, hip-hop, dance, or punk,

00:40:42iDog moves and grooves to your feet.

00:40:45iDog.

00:40:46Little dog, big sound.

00:40:48It launched in 2005, but was discontinued four years later.

00:40:52All the original model did was dance and react to music being played.

00:40:56Rock, hip-hop, dance, or punk,

00:40:59iDog moves and grooves to your feet.

00:41:02iDog.

00:41:03Little dog, big sound.

00:41:05Later variations took it to the next level,

00:41:07since they could also play music.

00:41:09It wasn't just dogs.

00:41:11They also made an iCat, iFish, iTurtle, and even an iPenguin.

00:41:15What's black and white and cool all over?

00:41:17It's iCy.

00:41:19Plug in your tunes and iCy plays your music

00:41:21through his built-in speaker as he chills to the beat.

00:41:24No one cares about collecting them all these days.

00:41:26A large reason for their discontinuation

00:41:28was that portable music technology advanced rapidly,

00:41:32making these robotic pets clunky in comparison.

00:41:36Now in every Burger King kid's meal an iDog toy.

00:41:38Each comes with its own costume.

00:41:40One toy per kid's meal.

00:41:41BK Kids Meals now with iDog toys.

00:41:43Scary fun.

00:41:44Number 7.

00:41:45Fingerlings.

00:41:46A defining feature of the Christmas season 2017

00:41:49was the hype surrounding Fingerlings.

00:41:51They're toy robotic animals that sit on your finger.

00:41:54Things are much cuter and bigger in person.

00:41:57If you turn it right here and blow it a kiss,

00:42:00it starts to move its eyes and kind of looks happy at you.

00:42:04Then they'll react to your movements.

00:42:06They were released in spring 2017,

00:42:08and by Christmas, it felt as if almost every child wanted one.

00:42:12This motivated a ton of scalpers to use bots to bulk buy Fingerlings.

00:42:17This morning, we want to warn you about a popular toy

00:42:19that is raising some concerns.

00:42:21Fingerlings.

00:42:22Have you heard of those?

00:42:23These are really one of the hottest holiday toys out there.

00:42:26Then they would resell them for an extortionate sum.

00:42:29By Christmas 2018,

00:42:31it felt like everyone had forgotten about Fingerlings.

00:42:34Now, the majority sell for less than $10,

00:42:37with the most expensive ones not even breaking $100.

00:42:41They love me.

00:42:42Everything be me.

00:42:44Everything hug me.

00:42:47And they never let go.

00:42:48Number 6, Hatchimals.

00:42:50Up early, lining up outside of Target stores today,

00:42:53and this is all why.

00:42:54The parents are hoping to take home the coveted toy of the season.

00:42:58It's called the Hatchimal.

00:43:00A year earlier, Hatchimals were all the rage.

00:43:03They launched in October 2016 with massive expectations.

00:43:07People assumed they'd be the number one toy of the Christmas season.

00:43:10Raffles and waiting lists were made.

00:43:12But when people got their hands on one, many were disappointed.

00:43:16This is because it turned out

00:43:18not all of the Hatchimals hatched like they were supposed to.

00:43:21It works perfectly in the commercial.

00:43:23The furry animal pecks its way out of the shell.

00:43:26But in real life,

00:43:27some kids are finding their Hatchimals aren't hatching

00:43:30the way they're supposed to.

00:43:31They were meant to pop out of an egg.

00:43:33But this didn't happen for every toy.

00:43:35In response, a parent filed a lawsuit against them.

00:43:38The company now addressing defective toys on its website,

00:43:43saying they've increased the number of consumer care representatives.

00:43:47They're not completely worthless now,

00:43:49still being sold for roughly $30 each.

00:43:52Still, few people are interested in collecting them,

00:43:54especially with the chance of early products being defective.

00:43:58And when the egg finally cracked,

00:44:00it looked like this.

00:44:14If you asked a child today

00:44:16whether they'd like a toy that only plays 60 seconds of pop songs,

00:44:20they'd probably think you were being sarcastic.

00:44:23Well, in the early 2000s,

00:44:25these toys were all the rage.

00:44:27They were called Hit Clips,

00:44:28and they came with cartridges

00:44:29that each played one minute of a pop song.

00:44:32Hit Clips became so huge

00:44:34that they even had Hilary Duff and Raven-Symoné

00:44:36as their spokespersons.

00:44:38New Hit Clips music players,

00:44:39like my fast-fashioned flower

00:44:40that clips right on my backpack,

00:44:41so I can listen to Vanessa, Michelle, and Hilary Duff.

00:44:44It's pretty clear why they faded into obscurity.

00:44:46In the 2000s,

00:44:48things like iPods became common.

00:44:50By the early 2010s,

00:44:51smartphones were becoming ubiquitous.

00:44:53So this meant Hit Clips were entirely redundant,

00:44:56as much less cumbersome devices could play full songs.

00:45:00Best thing about Hit Clips?

00:45:02Always something new.

00:45:03New players.

00:45:04And the newest music.

00:45:05Number 4.

00:45:0790s Star Wars Toys

00:45:08If you're into vintage action figures,

00:45:11you'll know the original run of

00:45:12Kenner's Star Wars action figures

00:45:14can fetch a pretty penny.

00:45:16They were released in the 70s and 80s,

00:45:18and are still sought after today.

00:45:19Darth Vader's firing a laser cannon.

00:45:22It's been hit.

00:45:23He's after low.

00:45:24Take the elevator.

00:45:26Hurry.

00:45:26Now cross the light bridge.

00:45:28You won't escape me.

00:45:29In 1991,

00:45:31Kenner was bought by Hasbro

00:45:32after people became disinterested in Star Wars.

00:45:35Interest in the series and the old figures

00:45:37increased in the 90s,

00:45:39leading to a new line of toys being produced.

00:45:41You haven't experienced Star Wars

00:45:43until you've experienced Comtech.

00:45:45Figures come with chips,

00:45:46readers hold separately,

00:45:46batteries not included.

00:45:47It's your universe.

00:45:48People expected them to appreciate as well,

00:45:51but about 30 years later,

00:45:52and they've hardly increased in value.

00:45:55This is because so many more of them

00:45:57were produced than the original toys.

00:45:59Even if you have a few lying around,

00:46:01it'd be a headache to sell them.

00:46:03People are so disinterested.

00:46:05Stormtroopers, attack!

00:46:07Or leave them in the box and never touch them!

00:46:09Number 3.

00:46:10Beanie Babies 2.0

00:46:11If you grew up in the 90s,

00:46:13you'll remember a period

00:46:14when Beanie Babies were unavoidable.

00:46:17That's why I'm here now, bye.

00:46:18The new has caused a frenzy in the Beanie world,

00:46:21especially among the adult collectors.

00:46:23They definitely didn't fail,

00:46:25as they were huge for a few years.

00:46:27Now, they're worth hardly anything,

00:46:29but they're still worth more

00:46:31than their sequel, Beanie Babies 2.0.

00:46:33Drove the prices up at the time.

00:46:36Since 1998, prices have dropped dramatically

00:46:39on Beanie Babies,

00:46:41as well as desirability.

00:46:43This line was announced in 2008,

00:46:45but barely lasted five years.

00:46:47They were different from the predecessors,

00:46:49as they came with online codes

00:46:51to enter a children's chat game.

00:46:53The last product from the line

00:46:54was announced in 2009,

00:46:56but with little popularity,

00:46:58the virtual world was shut down in 2013.

00:47:01Using its very own secret scratch-off code,

00:47:03unlock a unique playroom

00:47:05with great fun games,

00:47:08chit-chat,

00:47:08and lots of Beanie friends.

00:47:10Number two, Pet Rocks.

00:47:12Long before Labubu's trading cards

00:47:14and even Beanie Babies,

00:47:16there was the Pet Rock.

00:47:17It was an idea conceived by one man,

00:47:19Gary Dahl.

00:47:20It ended up making him a fortune,

00:47:22as they were all the rage

00:47:24for approximately six months in 1975.

00:47:27Dahl is the man who created the Pet Rock,

00:47:30an idea, he says,

00:47:31whose time has come.

00:47:33Each rock initially made Dahl

00:47:34a 95-cent profit,

00:47:36turning him into a millionaire.

00:47:38By February 1976,

00:47:40they were discontinued due to poor sales.

00:47:43People likely realized

00:47:44you can get rocks for free outside.

00:47:46We'll probably sell another million or two.

00:47:48And then you'll be out of the Pet Rock business.

00:47:50Then I'll be out of the rock business

00:47:51and into some other insane scheme.

00:47:54Or lying on a beach someplace

00:47:55not caring about it.

00:47:56If you ever struggle to understand

00:47:58the appeal of modern toy fads,

00:48:00try comparing them to the hilarious Pet Rock.

00:48:02That's right.

00:48:03The Pet Rock, introduced in 1975,

00:48:07was billed as the 70s alternative

00:48:08to man's best friend.

00:48:10Suddenly, Labubu's look a lot more

00:48:12creative and interesting.

00:48:14Number one, NFTs.

00:48:17I know it's a non-fungible token.

00:48:19Yes.

00:48:19I'm not exactly sure what that means.

00:48:20Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:48:21Well, it's just not very fungible.

00:48:23Non-fungible tokens were essentially

00:48:25unique digital images

00:48:26that could be traded online.

00:48:28They were first pitched in 2017,

00:48:30then peaked in 2021.

00:48:32The most expensive was called

00:48:34the Merge by PAC,

00:48:35which sold for an incredible $91.8 million.

00:48:39By September 2023,

00:48:41it was estimated that 95% of NFTs were worthless.

00:48:45No one quite understood NFTs,

00:48:48non-fungible tokens.

00:48:50And now they're tanking

00:48:52and people are losing a ton of money.

00:48:54It was easily the most prolific example

00:48:57of digital collector's items.

00:48:59A lot of people compare the trend

00:49:00to a Ponzi scheme.

00:49:02And to own its digital record,

00:49:03you buy an NFT

00:49:05off of one of a number of NFT marketplaces.

00:49:08One of their main flaws

00:49:09was how easy it was to copy an NFT.

00:49:11You could simply screenshot one

00:49:14or even right-click and save it,

00:49:16thus bypassing the need

00:49:17to spend millions of dollars on one.

00:49:19So it's not necessarily the long-term,

00:49:21not the value of that rock in 20 years,

00:49:23but it's what it gets you right now

00:49:26in terms of who else is in this future.

00:49:30Do you have a favorite type of collectible?

00:49:32And is it still popular today?

00:49:34Or did it also fall out of favor?

00:49:37We are going to end things today

00:49:39by looking at vintage collectibles

00:49:41that break the bank

00:49:42and the ones that break your heart.

00:49:46My Little Pony.

00:49:47My Little Pony grooming parlor from Hasbro.

00:49:51Welcome to Miss Mojo.

00:49:52And today we're counting down our picks

00:49:53for 10 vintage collectibles

00:49:55that nowadays have impressively high values

00:49:57and 10 with disappointingly low values.

00:50:00Charizard being one of the top

00:50:02collectible pieces in Pokemon,

00:50:04this is a one-of-a-kind collection.

00:50:08Number 10.

00:50:09Disappointing Disney VHS tapes.

00:50:11With how far technology has come,

00:50:13it makes sense that public interest

00:50:14in VHS tapes has faded away.

00:50:16But still, those VHS tapes of old Disney films

00:50:19carry serious nostalgia,

00:50:20with the introduction of home video,

00:50:22the 80s through the 90s,

00:50:23was a crucial era in Disney history,

00:50:26starting in 1980 with Walt Disney home video.

00:50:28This summer, give your family an adventure

00:50:30they'll never forget.

00:50:32Walt Disney's Robin Hood on videocassette.

00:50:34Capture the fun today.

00:50:36From 1984 to 1994,

00:50:38the company released a line called

00:50:39Walt Disney Classics on VHS,

00:50:42starting with Robin Hood

00:50:43and continuing with everything from Pinocchio

00:50:46to Cinderella to Peter Pan and many more.

00:50:48Nowadays, the vast majority of Disney VHS tapes

00:50:51only go for a few bucks on eBay

00:50:52and at thrift stores and such.

00:50:54For Disney collectible fans,

00:50:56that's a bargain.

00:50:56So hurry, get Walt Disney Home Video's new mini-classics.

00:51:01Only $14.95 each.

00:51:03Fill your home with magic.

00:51:05Number 10.

00:51:06Valuable Hot Wheels Cars

00:51:07Toy giant Mattel introduced Hot Wheels in 1968.

00:51:12For decades, they've been the go-to car toys for kids,

00:51:15but they've become much more than that.

00:51:17Even for automobile-loving adults,

00:51:18these well-designed, detailed mini-cars

00:51:20have become prized possessions.

00:51:22Um, a bargain for the rarest of all rare toys.

00:51:27$150,000.

00:51:28Um, damn.

00:51:30I don't even touch it.

00:51:32Originally selling for cents,

00:51:33many throwback models have appreciated substantially.

00:51:36Examples include the 1971 Spectra Flame Purple Bifocal

00:51:41and the 1972 Pink Superfine Turbine,

00:51:44both rare editions with estimated values

00:51:46as high as the thousands.

00:51:48But even more common Hot Wheels cars

00:51:50can fetch a nice return on investment.

00:51:53Redline Hot Wheels cars,

00:51:54produced from 1968 to 1977,

00:51:57featuring red stripes across the tires,

00:52:00can be worth three digits in decent condition.

00:52:03From cents to that, not bad.

00:52:05There's some heavy hitters in the Hot Wheels world

00:52:07that would jump on a prototype like this.

00:52:10So it'd be easily $100,000 for this car.

00:52:13Number 9.

00:52:14Disappointing.

00:52:15Commemorative State Quarters.

00:52:17Is it unreasonable to think certain quarters

00:52:19should be worth more than 25 cents?

00:52:22Perhaps.

00:52:22But we're doing it anyway.

00:52:24The 50 State Quarter Program,

00:52:25introduced in 1999,

00:52:27was a welcome site for U.S. coin collectors.

00:52:29Announcing the new 50 State Quarters

00:52:31from the United States Men.

00:52:34Special effects.

00:52:35You could slot each commemorative state quarter

00:52:37into your organized collector's book.

00:52:39The coins, with their very neat and detailed designs,

00:52:42were a massive hit.

00:52:43Now you can organize and protect your coins

00:52:46as you enjoy collecting each quarter

00:52:48in this exciting series.

00:52:50Kids will have so much fun trading them,

00:52:52and it's a chance to trade something

00:52:53that actually has value.

00:52:55According to the U.S. Mint government page,

00:52:57an estimated 147 million Americans collected them.

00:53:01Given the coins' awesome designs

00:53:03and the high level of public interest,

00:53:05it's hard to wrap our heads around them

00:53:06not being more valuable today,

00:53:09apart from ones with rare errors.

00:53:11We suppose, after all, they are quarters.

00:53:13Still, we wouldn't use these at the gumball machine.

00:53:1650 new quarters will be issued over the next 10 years,

00:53:19one to represent each state.

00:53:21In 1999, five coins were issued.

00:53:24These highly collectible coins

00:53:25will never be minted again.

00:53:26Number nine, valuable, vintage Barbie dolls.

00:53:29Ruth Handler changed the world of dolls forever

00:53:31with the introduction of Barbie in 1959.

00:53:35Given how far it's come since,

00:53:36it's no wonder those early Barbies are so valuable today.

00:53:39The first ever one, sporting a black-and-white swimsuit

00:53:42and ponytail, can go for thousands of dollars,

00:53:44even in mediocre condition.

00:53:46In mint condition, then we're talking close to $30,000.

00:53:50Back in 1959, it cost just $3.

00:53:53Barbie dressed for swim and fun is only $3.

00:53:56Her lovely fashions range from $1 to $5.

00:53:59Look for Barbie wherever dolls are sold.

00:54:01Besides the original,

00:54:02there are also multiple other vintage Barbies

00:54:04that are now worth hundreds and even thousands of dollars.

00:54:07American Girl dolls deserve a mention here too,

00:54:10as certain older editions can also be worth a lot.

00:54:13But Barbie gets the spot on our list,

00:54:15because she's the queen of this.

00:54:17I think that you have no problem whatsoever

00:54:19getting somewhere between,

00:54:23you know, $7,500 and $8,000 for this doll.

00:54:27Number eight, disappointing, vintage Playboy magazines.

00:54:31Unless it's the 1953 first edition with Marilyn Monroe,

00:54:34those vintage Playboy magazines aren't worth as much

00:54:37as one would think,

00:54:38based on their mega status and historical influence in pop culture.

00:54:42How do you know so much about Playboys?

00:54:44Trust me, chum, I know.

00:54:46This is amazing.

00:54:47This is the most collectible issue of Playboy ever.

00:54:50Most Playboys are worth a few bucks.

00:54:52This is worth a few thousand.

00:54:53Most editions from the 60s and 70s

00:54:55are very unlikely to crack three figures in value.

00:54:58Even many copies from the 50s are no guarantee whatsoever

00:55:01to rake in that amount,

00:55:03especially if not in pristine condition.

00:55:05And without their centerfold, forget it.

00:55:07These days, collections of Playboy issues from the 70s and on,

00:55:10even ones featuring some of the biggest sex icons of their time,

00:55:14routinely sell for only a few bucks per magazine on eBay.

00:55:18Hey, Joey, Playboy printed my joke.

00:55:19What? No, no, no, it's mine.

00:55:21It's my joke. You can call them. They'll tell you.

00:55:23It's my joke.

00:55:24Whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:55:25Jokes? You guys know they have naked chicks in there, right?

00:55:30Number 8. Valuable 90s Pokemon cards.

00:55:33While the Pokemon craze may have peaked in the late 90s and early 2000s,

00:55:37make no mistake about it.

00:55:38Pokemon cards are alive and well.

00:55:41Today, plenty of collectors jump at the opportunity

00:55:43to get their hands on the best cards from the Golden Age.

00:55:46Fast forward to a resurgence in Pokemon popularity,

00:55:49making some OG merchandise worth a pretty penny.

00:55:52This 1999 first edition Charizard at Sotheby's sold for almost $200,000.

00:55:58Rare Pikachus and Charizards released between 1997 and 1999 steal the show.

00:56:03In 2021, a 1998 Pikachu illustrator, graded in mint 10 condition by PSA,

00:56:10sold for over $6 million.

00:56:14A PSA 9 went for nearly $1.48 million that same year.

00:56:18YouTuber Logan Paul famously bought one for $150,000 in 2020.

00:56:23His mint condition, first edition Charizard,

00:56:26is considered the holy grail of Pokemon cards.

00:56:29During the 2020s, multiple other rare Pikachus and Charizards

00:56:32have sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

00:56:34Base set cards, particularly rare holo versions with high grades,

00:56:38have great value and demand.

00:56:39The nostalgia of these hits different.

00:56:42This card could go $30,000 to $40,000.

00:56:48Altogether, I'm estimating anywhere from $380,000 to $390,000 for this collection.

00:56:53Number 7. Disappointing Encyclopedia Britannica sets.

00:56:56Traditional print encyclopedias have become obsolete in the digital age.

00:57:00Even the famous Encyclopedia Britannica faced the reality of that,

00:57:04with its print run of more than 240 years coming to an end in 2010.

00:57:08The digital version became all that was needed.

00:57:11And even though some would argue there's nothing quite like a physical book,

00:57:15the low values of vintage Encyclopedia Britannica sets don't reflect that.

00:57:19It's the new Encyclopedia Britannica.

00:57:21Encyclopedia Britannica.

00:57:23Now you tell me.

00:57:24I've got a report due tomorrow.

00:57:26On what?

00:57:26On the exploration of space.

00:57:28On the whole, they're worth much, much less than they were originally sold for.

00:57:32Many sets from the 21st century that originally went for $1,000 to $3,000

00:57:36may not even be worth a couple of hundred nowadays.

00:57:40Knowledge acquisition has changed,

00:57:41and apparently people aren't all that interested in the old ways.

00:57:45These days, it's rare that students,

00:57:48like these fifth graders at Eisenhower Academy in Joliet, Illinois,

00:57:52would even pick up a physical copy of Britannica.

00:57:56Number 7. Valuable Tiffany Lamps.

00:57:59These gorgeous lamps, produced between the 1890s and 1920s,

00:58:03are true works of art.

00:58:05And sale trends during the 21st century

00:58:07tell us they're still viewed in extremely high regard.

00:58:10You can see why.

00:58:11The most valuable Tiffany lamps have gone for millions of dollars.

00:58:15For example, a rare 1903 Pond Lily Lamp

00:58:18sold for a record-breaking $3,372,500 at auction in 2018.

00:58:27A trumpet-creeper Tiffany Lamp, also from 1903,

00:58:31exchanged hands for $2,295,000 in 2018.

00:58:36Today, a Tiffany Lamp can sell for anywhere from thousands to millions of dollars at auction.

00:58:41But Noble sees deeper meaning hidden in the glass.

00:58:44How choices made by a group of women left their mark on the future.

00:58:47Other vintage Tiffany lamps have sold for hundreds of thousands,

00:58:50and there are plenty of examples of ones worth tens of thousands.

00:58:54These were originally expensive, but nothing like this, obviously.

00:58:58Vintage lamps are very much still desirable for collectors,

00:59:01especially ones as beautiful as these.

00:59:03This is a Tiffany Lamp.

00:59:04Those of you who know Tiffany Lamps know this is a good one,

00:59:07because from around 1905 to 1910,

00:59:10just sold at auction for $541,000.

00:59:13Number 6. Disappointing Franklin Mint Plates

00:59:16Most of these vintage collector plates from the 70s and 80s

00:59:19now sell for less than $10 a pop.

00:59:22Their values lie in their decorative and sentimental nature, not financially.

00:59:26It evokes all the emotion of the original scene,

00:59:28and can be yours now at the issue price of $27.50 from the Bradford Exchange.

00:59:33Franklin Mint Plates used to be one of the more popular decorative plates out there,

00:59:37once considered investments for some collectors.

00:59:39But those positive outlooks flipped for the worse around the turn of the century.

00:59:43Some may remember the artistry of Franklin Mint's Norman Rockwell line of plates,

00:59:48but even those are now only worth a fraction of their original retail values.

00:59:53Not all plates go up in value. Some go down.

00:59:56But the Bradford Exchange can often recommend plates that show excellent potential,

01:00:00like this earlier exceptional gone-with-the-wind plate.

01:00:03Number 6. Valuable Classic Film Posters

01:00:05The golden age of Hollywood is obviously remembered through the many timeless classic films we still watch.

01:00:11That cinematic history also persists in the form of film posters.

01:00:15Very, very valuable film posters.

01:00:18The 1933 check one sheet for King Kong.

01:00:22It's expected to fetch more than $80,000.

01:00:25In the old days, film posters were printed in much more limited quantities,

01:00:29and many were discarded.

01:00:31Ones that weren't have been steadily climbing in value for decades.

01:00:34During the 21st century, multiple film posters from 1920s and 1930s classics

01:00:39have sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

01:00:42And I picked this up for about $72,000 five or six years ago,

01:00:47and today its value is well over $200,000.

01:00:51Examples include a record-breaking $690,000 for a poster of the 1927 film Metropolis,

01:00:58as well as $525,800 for a 1931 Dracula poster, just to name a couple.

01:01:05While those are rarities, of course, other vintage film posters can be worth a pretty penny too.

01:01:10The most expensive poster heritage ever sold was a Dracula-style A one-sheet,

01:01:16and that sold for over $540,000.

01:01:19Number 5. Disappointing Pogs

01:01:22For all the buzz Pogs caused on school playgrounds,

01:01:25it's too bad they're not highly coveted these days.

01:01:28I'm really sorry. I kind of traded your soul to the guy at the comic book store.

01:01:32But look, I got some cool Pogs.

01:01:35Elf Pogs!

01:01:36Think those special hologram Pogs might be valuable?

01:01:39Well, you might be only able to get a few bucks for those.

01:01:42Well, I have, like, the originals.

01:01:44They're, like, expensive. They're, like, 50 cents each.

01:01:47And then I have some of the fake ones, like, around there.

01:01:50And they're, like, 10 cents each.

01:01:52There are some vintage holographic skull designs that can fetch $40 plus on eBay.

01:01:57But aside from that, if you still have your regular old Pogs collection,

01:02:01even with all those designs we thought were so cool back then,

01:02:04you're likely to be disappointed with the return.

01:02:13At this point, you might as well start playing again.

01:02:16Or just give them away.

01:02:18Number 5. Valuable vintage Leica cameras

01:02:21Now we're talking.

01:02:23Leica cameras, developed in Germany, date back to the Roaring Twenties.

01:02:27Or, as they're known in Germany, the Golden Twenties.

01:02:31What do all these people have in common?

01:02:33Well, they all use Leica cameras.

01:02:39In 2022, a 1923 O-series Leica became the most expensive camera ever sold.

01:02:45How much, you ask?

01:02:46Well, try $15 million.

01:02:50Yes, you heard that right.

01:02:51Sure, that's an outlier.

01:02:53But another 1923 Leica sold at an auction for $2.97 million.

01:02:59That's not too shabby either.

01:03:01Later Leica models can also fetch a pretty penny.

01:03:05Take, for instance, a rare black 1957 Leica MP.

01:03:09That went for $1.34 million.

01:03:11Other less rare and worse conditioned vintage Leicas can still put hundreds or even thousands of dollars in your pocket.

01:03:18This is a camera that I own.

01:03:19This is the Leica 1A.

01:03:21It was not a $3 million camera.

01:03:23I paid about $1,600 for this.

01:03:24But it was the first production camera that Leica ever made.

01:03:28People will pay a lot to look through a lens of the past.

01:03:32Number 4. Disappointing 1990s Happy Meal Toys

01:03:35There were so many legendary Happy Meal toys in the 90s.

01:03:39Ones that now have nostalgia written all over them.

01:03:42But apparently such nostalgia doesn't equate to a significant price tag.

01:03:46Even decades removed.

01:03:47What's a McDonald's Happy Meal?

01:03:49One of four Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. 3 toys.

01:03:52You'd likely have to sell a whole batch of 90s Happy Meal toys for it to even be worth the

01:03:56time to try to sell them.

01:03:58Even if the toys are unopened, you might only get a buckle two for each.

01:04:02A Diet Coke and...

01:04:03100 Happy Meals.

01:04:04100 Happy Meals.

01:04:05When's lunch?

01:04:06I mean, one Happy Meal.

01:04:08Now buy your kid a Hamburger Happy Meal at McDonald's for just $1.99 and get a Tiny Toon flip

01:04:13car.

01:04:13That goes for throwbacks like the 1991 Tiny Toon Adventures toys and the 1994 The Magic School Bus toys.

01:04:20As well as more mainstream collectibles McDonald's gave out like the 1997 Teenie Beanie Babies and the 1999 Furbies.

01:04:30There's something big at McDonald's.

01:04:32It's Furby.

01:04:33And right now there are 80 different colourful characters in all.

01:04:36Each one's a surprise in every Happy Meal you buy.

01:04:38Maybe one day people will change their minds about these artefacts.

01:04:42Number four.

01:04:43Valuable.

01:04:44Original Star Wars action figures.

01:04:46Vintage figurines from one of the most successful film franchises of all time should be worth something.

01:04:52And they are.

01:04:53Now your children can relive our great space battles or collect our wonderful Star Wars companions with Kenner's Star Wars

01:05:00action figures.

01:05:00The first Kenner's Star Wars action figures arrived shortly after the original 1977 film.

01:05:06A complete set featuring all the classic characters can easily go for hundreds of dollars.

01:05:11What's a diorama?

01:05:13Well it's Luke.

01:05:14And Obi-Wan.

01:05:15And my favourite...

01:05:16Better yet on the rare occasion that just one of these action figures is still sealed in the original box

01:05:22it can easily go for hundreds on its own.

01:05:25That's exactly what happened in 2025 for the likes of Obi-Wan, C-3PO and Princess Leia.

01:05:31What can we say?

01:05:32People love Star Wars.

01:05:33Oh yeah and check the basement for vintage G.I. Joe action figures too because they're also pretty valuable nowadays.

01:05:41G.I. Joe, America's movable fighting man. The most realistic toy soldier the world has ever known.

01:05:48Number 3. Disappointing. Precious Moments Figurines.

01:05:51It means a lot like my mom's Precious Moments Figurines collection.

01:05:55I have no idea what that means.

01:05:56He's a fragile little bitch.

01:05:57Unless your Precious Moment figurine has a signature from founder Sam Butcher or is just an ultra-rare edition, it

01:06:04isn't likely that it's worth that much.

01:06:05That's true of even the earliest versions which came out in 1978.

01:06:09A lot of people actually collected these through the 70s and through the 80s and I guess through the 90s,

01:06:14but they're not a big seller.

01:06:17Maybe you can get $10 or even $20 for one if you're lucky, but the nostalgic appeal of these religious

01:06:23figures would lead us to think that they could be worth much more.

01:06:26It's much more than just products. It celebrates precious moments in everybody's life.

01:06:33We know there's a market for vintage holiday antiques as well, but even the holiday-themed Precious Moments Figurines don't

01:06:39go for that much these days.

01:06:41Number 3. Valuable Vinyl Records.

01:06:44Society may have moved away from vinyl records to an extent, but don't get it twisted. They're alive and well.

01:06:49Are all these records?

01:06:51Yeah, I've got about 1,578s at this point. I've tried to pare down my collection to just the essential.

01:06:58Sure, we have a multitude of ways to stream music more conveniently now, but many still hold this throwback way

01:07:03of listening close and dear.

01:07:05In the 2010s, there was a vinyl revival of sorts.

01:07:08CDs nearly killed records, but when streaming hit, records started selling again, up 18 years in a row.

01:07:16Some of the rarest, one-of-a-kind records have gone for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

01:07:21But even less scarce vintage vinyl records can go for big bucks if in good condition.

01:07:26And even the super mass-produced classics can be worth a decent amount.

01:07:30But for many people, dropping the needle and letting that record spin is priceless.

01:07:35For this is all a dream we do, one afternoon on the devil.

01:07:44Number 2. Disappointing.

01:07:471990s comic books.

01:07:48A lot of comic book fans have a pretty negative view of the 1990s.

01:07:52The art style was often loud and the storytelling didn't always land like it did in the old days,

01:07:56even with the rise of new characters like Harley Quinn and Deadpool.

01:07:59Anyway, I got places to be, a face to fix, and oh, bad guys to kill.

01:08:05On top of that, the market was absolutely flooded, with tons of different titles and way too many copies.

01:08:11That's a big reason why most of them just aren't worth that much today.

01:08:15Got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it,

01:08:21got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it,

01:08:23got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it,

01:08:24got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it,

01:08:25got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it,

01:08:26got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it, got it.

01:08:44Spawn, and Kingdom Come, just to name a few.

01:08:47But even those rarely go for much unless they're in near-perfect condition.

01:08:52Number two, valuable vintage video games.

01:08:55Factory-sealed classic video games can be worth a fortune.

01:08:59Look no further than the Nintendo original 1985 Super Mario Bros. game

01:09:04that sold for $2 million in 2021.

01:09:08That really happened. We're not playing.

01:09:11It's from the test market launch of the NES, as far as we know,

01:09:15which was only in 1985 and 1986.

01:09:17No one even knew who Nintendo was.

01:09:19But back then, they were just another company.

01:09:22Once they started mass-producing these and sending them across the country,

01:09:25they had to have something that would last on the shelves longer,

01:09:28which is also why seeing this in this condition is just...

01:09:31It's a complete anomaly.

01:09:33This is the second print, and it's the earliest known.

01:09:36There's no other second prints or even first prints known that are still sealed.

01:09:39Oh, yeah, and what can a 1987 Legend of Zelda game cartridge get you?

01:09:45Well, apparently $870,000.

01:09:48Even if it's a classic that has been played time and time again,

01:09:51it may well be worth something.

01:09:54We will walk through walls.

01:09:55We will take a look around us.

01:09:57We will not be confined.

01:09:59We believe in the path of least limits.

01:10:01We won't be told how to view the world.

01:10:03We will experience true freedom.

01:10:05We will not compromise.

01:10:06We will live the game through our hands.

01:10:09We will be in control of something.

01:10:11Change the world.

01:10:13Change the world.

01:10:14Change the world.

01:10:14We will change the system.

01:10:16There's something about those vintage video games

01:10:19that can scratch a nostalgic gamers' itch.

01:10:21So don't tell us they're outdated.

01:10:23They're standing the test of time just fine.

01:10:26Sam Crother from a town in regional Victoria

01:10:28has a copy of every Nintendo Entertainment System

01:10:31and Game Boy game released for the Australian market.

01:10:34It was really kind of the thrill of the chase

01:10:36of like finding different variations

01:10:38and going about and cataloging each of those variations.

01:10:42Going to a garage sale,

01:10:43if I'm going out somewhere,

01:10:44like got adrenaline kind of pumping.

01:10:46If I see something that I'm like,

01:10:48holy crap, I've got to go buy that thing.

01:10:50Like the excitement and the endorphin rush

01:10:53is a very real response.

01:10:55Number one, disappointing Beanie Babies.

01:10:57Ah, the 90s collectible phenomenon,

01:11:00the Beanie Baby.

01:11:01When they're first released,

01:11:03you can get them for about five to seven dollars.

01:11:05Once they retire, the value goes up.

01:11:08In like two years,

01:11:10they're worth like $245 and stuff.

01:11:13He's worth about $4,000.

01:11:14Meet Employee Bear and his owner, Joy Brizigella.

01:11:19A Beanie Baby collector resold it to her for...

01:11:22About $400 and he ended up being worth about $4,000.

01:11:27These cute little fellas made countless people smile

01:11:30and who knows for how many people

01:11:31they helped spark an interest in poetry.

01:11:34Sadly, the craze is gone

01:11:36and Beanie Babies clearly don't have

01:11:38a ton of nostalgic value these days.

01:11:40Maybe it'll take a few more decades

01:11:41or it's just not meant to be.

01:11:43Suddenly, investors and collectors

01:11:45who had hoped to make a living

01:11:47out of trading plush animals

01:11:48found themselves with inventory

01:11:50that was not worth what they once paid.

01:11:53Then in 2009 came Beanie Booze,

01:11:56a modern, redesigned version of its predecessor

01:11:58with bigger eyes and bolder colors.

01:12:01But some believe it wasn't the Beanie Babies

01:12:04that went down in popularity.

01:12:05It was the interest in trading them.

01:12:07While there are a few super rare exceptions,

01:12:10the more regular Beanie Babies

01:12:11that were part of so many collections

01:12:13routinely go for less than their original $5 retail price.

01:12:17Considering they're the symbol

01:12:19of the 90s collector culture,

01:12:20a true icon,

01:12:22that's definitely disappointing.

01:12:24In a USA Weekend poll estimated

01:12:26that 64% of Americans

01:12:28owned at least one Beanie Baby.

01:12:30One divorcing couple had so many,

01:12:32they needed a judge

01:12:33to fairly split their collection,

01:12:35worth up to $5,000 at the time.

01:12:38That same year,

01:12:40Warner made the Forbes 400 list

01:12:42with an estimated net worth

01:12:43of $5 billion.

01:12:45Number one, valuable baseball cards.

01:12:48There are loads of examples

01:12:49of old baseball cards

01:12:51commanding a lot of dough.

01:12:52Cards with values in the hundreds

01:12:54and even the thousands

01:12:55are much more common

01:12:56than a lot of people probably think.

01:12:58It's not the drugs

01:12:59that I care about.

01:13:00I mean, I care.

01:13:02It's my baseball cards I need back.

01:13:07Your baseball cards?

01:13:09Yes.

01:13:10I have a very valuable collection

01:13:12of baseball cards

01:13:13and someone stole them.

01:13:14I guess I shouldn't be surprised,

01:13:16I have to tell you this.

01:13:18But it's probably a bad idea

01:13:20that you willingly talk to the police,

01:13:22being a criminal and all.

01:13:23That's especially true for cards

01:13:25with a mint condition grade

01:13:26from a reputable card grading company

01:13:29like PSA or Beckett.

01:13:31Of course,

01:13:32then you have the big time

01:13:33ultimate rare throwback cards

01:13:35as some of baseball's

01:13:36all-time legends.

01:13:38Those have gone for hundreds of thousands

01:13:40and even millions of dollars

01:13:41in some cases.

01:13:42Last time I checked,

01:13:43there might have been

01:13:44maybe 40 or 50 of these

01:13:45known to exist.

01:13:46The highest graded example of this

01:13:47I saw sell for over $200,000

01:13:49not too long ago.

01:13:51So is it real?

01:13:52We're going to find out right now, man.

01:13:54All right.

01:13:54Let's start with condition.

01:13:56It's not mint,

01:13:58but it's not bad.

01:13:59The corners and the edges

01:14:00are actually quite nice.

01:14:01And what's amazing about it,

01:14:03the centering is almost dead on.

01:14:04A T206 Honus Wagner

01:14:07issued between 1909 and 1911

01:14:10sold for $7.25 million in 2022.

01:14:15Later that year,

01:14:16a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle

01:14:18sold for $12.6 million.

01:14:21A mint condition,

01:14:231952 Mickey Mantle.

01:14:24Here it is.

01:14:25Baseball card sold,

01:14:26forget this,

01:14:27$12.6 million yesterday.

01:14:31That's the most money

01:14:32ever paid for sports memorabilia.

01:14:34The rare Mantle card

01:14:35eclipsed the record

01:14:36just posted a few months ago

01:14:37of $9.3 million

01:14:39for a jersey worn

01:14:41by soccer great

01:14:42Diego Maradona.

01:14:43And, Chanel,

01:14:44I know what you're saying.

01:14:45Mickey Mantle's rookie year

01:14:46was 1951.

01:14:47Absolutely.

01:14:48So this is 1952.

01:14:49This was the first

01:14:50Topps baseball card,

01:14:51that's why.

01:14:52Are you into

01:14:52any of these collectibles?

01:14:55Well, that's going to do it

01:14:56for this special

01:14:56deep dive into collectibles.
