Many people assume that toy collecting means only old toys. Although there are old toys that go for hundreds and even thousands of dollars, there are also new toys that enjoy a popular following. Some of these are popular for a brief time and then values decreases. Others hold or increase in value. Either way, if you enjoy collecting, the consideration of value should be secondary to the collection itself.
Some current toys considered hot collectibles are Bakugan, My Little Pony, Transformers, Star Wars, TMNT, Club Penguin, Movie or Tv related figures, Marvel Universe (comic) figures, and RPG game figures such as the Warhammer of Dungeons and Dragon series. Oh, and lots not forget the old standards of Barbie, GI Joe, and Hot Wheels. The fun of collecting new toys is that they are often more readily available than the older toys. Also, if you have a youngster just starting a collection, this is a way to get them going without spending a small fortune. Most of these toys can be found at local stores as well as online at places such as Ebay, Amazon and ToyWiz.
If you collect a current toy, I'd love to hear about it.
