G.I. Joe Circa 1964
G.I. Joe is a line of action figures manufactured by Hasbro that has been in production since the 1960s. Actually, the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps were among the four branches of the United States armed forces that were represented at the time – but most people are only familiar with the Army line, or the action soldier depicted in the image above. In addition, this is the one that sells for the most money. One of the most valuable G.I. Joe figures ever made might be sold for $10,000 if it’s in immaculate condition and has never been opened.
Barbie Dolls
How many little girls didn’t have at least one Barbie when they were growing up? I have a fond Christmas memory from when my half-brother had a significant raise at work and proceeded to walk into a Toys R Us (I’m dating myself here) and request one of every single Barbie they had in stock. It had been a pleasant Christmas for me. However, many of the older, original Barbies are collectible, and they would have sold for a lot more money if I had kept them after I finished with them. In the event that you have an original doll in good condition with the packaging, keep it secure because they can sell for more than $23,000 at auction.
