Yeah, this sounds like a good price.

> Yea and that’s for a very well known Painter like John Higby and is modded by a well known modder. That one is worth $15-$20 probably. Plastics aren’t worth as much as they use to be since they retail for so cheap and now there are metals you can get for the same price as a plastic and it kills the resale value of plastics.

Although AndoCommando has been forgotten by most people his paint jobs were gith up there with astroyama and higby’s stuff

Given this isn’t his best work I’d still say it’s worth at least $20 to the right collector

I definitely remember AndoCommando. His paint is cool but was pretty much limited to splatter paint jobs. I remember seeing some checker print done by him as well.

This is totally not for sale and never will be, it was a custom job from John Higby for my daughter who is a huge Pirates of the Caribbean fan and loves both Jacks. Just curious what people might value it at. Yes, those are flaming cannonballs in the catch zone.

I too am a big fan of the pirates franchise I’d pay 75-90 for it maybe a little more just because I love the franchise but as far as real value I don’t know as it is worth what someone will pay for it (but if you do sell let me know lol).

There was a thread not too long ago about whether or not having a throw signed added to it’s value. The general consensus was that it does not. My guess is that in this case your throw may hold at something near retail, but probably no higher than that.

I’m not sure what it was, but my guess is between $30 and $40 may be achievable, if you’re prepared to wait. Maybe a little under that if you were not.

They actually were on sale for $40 for a good amount of time because they just sat on the site

Mint ones tend to go as high as $40 since that’s what they originally but I’ve seen dinged ones as low as $20
