mostofthetime 7 years 2 months ago Posts: 218	Hi All What does MINT mean for Action Figures? On eBay and other sites it says: "Action Figures are not MINT, but they are in good shape" and these toys are not in their packages How can they be MINT if they are out of their packages? Could someone explain the meaning of MINT to me? Thank you

If they're out of the package, it means theres nothing physically wrong with the figure and it comes with all of the accessories. If its mint in the package/on the card, that means the theres no bends or anything is wrong with the packaging. Its just a grading system.

Well, I see it as two kinds of mint. Yeah, the value does go down you open the figure or toy, but that doesn't make the product any less perfect.

JohnB23 7 years 1 month ago Posts: 55	I collect mint, loose GI Joe's from the 80's (82-88/89). I'm pretty picky about condition....."mint" has to be stiff joints, new paint, new screws...basically...it looks like it just came from a package. I'll take one or two little imperfections (its hard to find some figures 100% mint, the paint can be very delicate and flake, rub off.....some of the Cobra soldiers can be hard to find with 100% intact cobra insignias). Or guys like silver pads, grand slam...those guys can be very tough. So it might differ slightly for different figures.

The game character action figures with purely handworks and exquisite outlooks have been attracting more and more people even though they are not playing the games. Some people may not get full satisfactions with the action figures which are selling in the recent markets. They want to get the particular one for their private collection. Let’s see what types of action figures are collected by the experienced collectors by click here: http://www.acgon.com/index/Action-Figures_39 .
