March, 2003 and Palisades’ G.I. Joe Statues

Here’s an ad from the March, 2003 issue of ToyFare magazine for those of you who missed out on the Palisades G.I. Joe statues (Amazon.com search*). A bust and a full-size statue, both of these look remarkable and the market value on them today is high enough that I’ll enjoy the statues from a distance.

I wonder if anyone out there could make money out of G.I. Joe statues in today’s market. It would probably have to be extremely limited, high-value statues to really work out and be profitable; there just doesn’t seem to be a large enough audience to support this type of G.I. Joe collectible today. That kinda sucks.
