Let’s talk about Vlix. No, that’s not a typo. Vlix is a character from a 1980s animated series called Droids, and Kenner only released him in Canada and Brazil. He looks like a goofy, green alien with a big smile, but his rarity is no joke.
If you ever find a sealed Vlix, you’re looking at a figure worth $30,000 to $50,000. That’s more than a down payment on a house in some places. It’s the ultimate “one that got away” for collectors—a toy so obscure that even die-hard fans have never held one.
The Boba Fett “Rocket-Firing” Legend
Now, I bet you’ve heard of Boba Fett. But did you know his very first prototype had a working rocket that actually fired from his jetpack? Kenner made a few dozen of these for product photos, then realized that a spring-loaded missile to a child’s eye was a terrible idea. They pulled the plug.

Those prototypes? They’re the holy grail within the holy grail. A single, unproduced “rocket-firing” Boba Fett sold for $165,000 at auction in 2026. It’s a toy that never even existed for sale—a ghost in plastic form. Makes your old Han Solo look like pocket change, right?
