The World’s Most Expensive Action Figure

This action figure is less than 4 inches tall. It’s also 45 years old. But it’s worth more than a brand-new car! In June, the Star Wars Boba Fett action figure sold for $525,000. That’s the highest price ever paid for a toy. 

The Kenner toy company created the toy in 1979. But fans never got a chance to buy it. The toy fired a rocket that could have choked kids.

Some Kenner workers saved the original prototypes. Very few exist. The rare action figure became important to toy collectors. 

You never know. A toy in your closet might be worth a fortune some day!
