The value of the figure has probably dropped. It sounds silly, but a lot of collectors never remove their figures from the original packaging, so they are picky about dents, creases, cuts and tears. If you are thuctinking of selling this figure on an auction site like eBay, be sure to be very descriptive of the damage to the card in your item description. I sell toys from time to time and I always do well, even with ones in damaged packaging, I think because I try to be very honest about the condition.
