Collector Catalogue - Help

The collector's catalogue of the Toy Soldier Gallery includes figures and accessories of various brands, among others Elastolin, Lineol, Morgoma, Tipp&Co etc.. This catalogue is constantly being expanded.

The catalogue can be searched according to various criteria (brand, series/size, manufacturer number, etc.). In addition, the keyword search can also be used to filter for the names of the figures and accessories.

Only parts of the catalogue can be viewed by unregistered users on the pages of the Toy Soldier Gallery. BASIC members can view the entire catalogue. The pictures of the figures and accessories are only shown to PREMIUM members in high resolution. In addition, PREMIUM members can use a zoom function* to better view details of the figures.

Sales revenues and a current market price estimate are also only displayed for PREMIUM members.

Information about the advantages of a PREMIUM membership can be found on the page "Memberships".

* The zoom function is not available on mobile devices and touch screens.


Value Determination

The value of figures and accessories in the collector's catalogue is determined on the basis of market observations, assessments by collectors and the evaluation of sales platforms.

If at least five sales have been registered for an item, the market value is determined in the following way:

1. for each registered purchase, the date of sale, the condition and the determined sale price are recorded.

2. First, the sales price is converted to state I. A percentage value in relation to the condition of a figure is assumed.

Condition I+ I I- I-II II+ II II- II-III III+ III III- III-IV IV+ IV
Factor 120% 100% 88% 80% 75% 70% 65% 60% 55% 50% 43% 35% 25% 10%

For a registered sales price of 100 euros of a figure in condition I-II, this results in a standardised sales price of 125 euros (= 100 euros / 80%).

3. the standardised sales prices are weighted according to the time of sale.

Passed Years 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
Factor 100% 85% 72% 61% 52% 44% 38% 32% 27% 23% 20% 17% 14% 12%

Sales that are even older are weighted at 10% and below.

4. A mean value is then formed from the weighted and standardised registered sales values, which indicates the calculated value of a figure in condition I.
