Will Slave Leia go up in value? I currently have both the 2003 and 2006 versions.
Will she increase in value any more or will she stay at the same price point.
I know Disney doesn’t allow and Slave Leia merchandise to be made so chances
are the figure will never be rereleased.

There's a certain irony in tracking the market value of Slave Leia minifigures…

Anyway, I don't know how to track the historical price of a minifigure besides
for the BrickLink price guide which only goes back six months, but according
to https://www.brickeconomy.com/ the market value of both sets she appeared in
(4480 and 6210) have increased significantly since they were first released so
I see no reason why the minifigure would not increase in value as well, especially
considering that Disney has prohibited Slave Leia merchandise as you pointed
out.

Maybe they will go up in value but after all these years from production they
haven’t moved upwards much.
The 2003 version with yellow head may never be very popular due to the non skinlike
color.
I see the Leia with long hair from the second sailbarge is doing really good,
that’s a better version.
So yours aren’t the ones I would bet on.

I know the Slave Leia is one of the only figures where the newest one is the
most valuable. The 2013 version is sometimes upwards of $50, while the other
two are usually around $25 each.
