What are MOC Metal Mutants and Super Mutants worth?

I have decided to sell these off, I'm wondering if anyone knows what these figures are actually worth?

Seems like $50 a piece has been the going rate on ebay.

I think you're right for the metal mutants, but I have bought super mutant Splinter for $18 this week and Raph and Don for 5€ the couple. I think they are worth more than 2.5€ each but not sure if $50 is a fair price.

The whole set is worth like 100~150$ if u sell it together.

Not for Don, no. The other three seem to be much rarer. I've had several Don figures pass through my hands (although the first two were loose/bare). If I get what I want for the rest of these, I will probably just keep Don.

These are all MOC/were used as wall-paper at one point, I have Mike as well but he is REALLY hard to find for some reason and I decided I was keeping him to open...gonna be like Christmas tomorrow

I'm sorry, that's bullsh!t in my opinion. I paid a lot more for them than that if I remember correctly so I won't sell them for less than $30 or $40 a piece shipped. We'll see how they do on e-bay if I can't sell them on here

Andrew is right, dude. Just because you paid too much doesn't mean thats what they're worth.

Just because they are only truly worth that doesn't mean I can't sell them for what I want if I find a buyer. Otherwise I'd sooner keep them. But if I can get $30-$40 a piece I will be happy.

Interesting that people pay so much for them then...but again, I know what I can actually get for them on the market. If they are only worth that how come certain ones go for so much money?

Well sometimes if you sell several rare figures in a lot you get slightly more for them because the buyer knows that it is going to save them a lot of time in the long run, and time IS money.

Ah, I think I understand now...

Regarding the Super Mutants, I was only thinking about the Japan figures which had mutation features, not the Supermutant line of the TMNT, Splinter, Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady that was released in the USA. After checking the official site, I guess there was also a USA release of the Metal Mutants. Again, I was only thinking of the Japanese releases, so I really have no idea how much the USA stuff tends to sell for.
