The early 90s comic speculation boom just fucked everything up. The general public saw Action Comics and Detective Comics #1 selling for millions. And their first reaction is
>Holy shit! This means EVERYTHING remotely geeky is worth billions upon billions!
They assumed anything childhood nostalgia based like comics, toys, video games, whatever is a fucking golden ticket to wealth and power. All...mass produced shit that already has lots and lots of people collecting and hording. Totally ignoring that no one collected shit in the 1930s so yeah that Action comics is fucking rare. Nothing mass produced i the 90s will ever be rare. And especially not so when the toy and video game companies keep re-re-re-releasing the 80s stuff forever and ever.

Fast Forward to today and we have
>Scalpers with garages full of 2017 SNES mini consoles assuming they are going to be rich some day.
>Scalpers buying up all mass produced rerelease figs like the 2019 80s Ghostbusters or 2021 80s TMNT reproductions.
>Scalpers with garages full of NES, SNES, and N64 cartridges screeching every day about roms and flashcarts are evil terrified their investment is in jeopardy

If it's kiddy nostalgia related, then the vast legions of autistic retarded scalpers will be funneling all of the mass produced shit into their storage lockers in hopes of buying that mega yacht some day.
