📈 Are Toy Prices Going Up in 2025? What Collectors Need to Know

If you’ve noticed action figure prices creeping higher this year—you’re not imagining things. From raw materials to limited releases, several factors are driving up collectible toy prices in 2025. Here's what you need to know if you're buying, selling, or investing in the current market.

🧾 Why Are Prices Climbing?

1. Manufacturing Costs Are Up
Plastic, packaging, and labor have all increased post-pandemic. Companies like Hasbro and Mattel have raised MSRPs on most new releases.

2. Limited Runs & Exclusives
More “collector-targeted” toys now drop in smaller quantities, like Mattel Creations and Hasbro Pulse exclusives—driving instant resale spikes.

3. International Shipping & Distribution Delays
Global shipping issues are still causing delays and shortages, which means less supply and more competition.

4. Nostalgia is Driving Demand
Collectors who grew up with 80s and 90s figures are now buying back their childhood—hard. Demand is outpacing supply for certain lines like MOTU Origins, G.I. Joe Classified, and older Star Wars releases.

💡 What This Means for Collectors

• 🔥 Prices for sealed figures and exclusives will likely keep climbing

• 💰 Now is a good time to buy figures that are trending up—but not yet “hot”

• 📦 Keep packaging minty—condition matters more than ever

• 🛒 Bundle deals and trusted sellers (like PopFixx Toyz) are key to saving long-term
