Wow!!! What a find, and seems to be in great condition too. The asking prices
for the two on BL are stupidly high though - nobody is going to spend that much
on a fig such as this.

Is there any demand for this line? There aren't many (or even any) listings
for most of the Quatro product range. I've never even heard of it. Was it
a spin-off from Duplo, or did it come first?

Quatro was only produced from 2004 - 2006 and quickly disappeared, it was aimed
at under 3’s and was designed to resist young teeth.

It was twice the size of Duplo and 4 times the size of standard bricks, hence
Quatro.

Duplo had been in production long before.

Items turn up in charity shops on occasions but you don’t normally see the only
figure, I found mine in a box of bricks.

Now one of those would fund a retirement! Mine is at least an '85 though.

Sadly even I don't get to play with it at the moment. It is stored and needs
some minor recommissioning. One day, hopefully soon I will find the time it deserves.

The only thing I would say is, better sooner than later.

I wonder how many they made, how many survive. It is possible your Quatro minifig
is rarer than my Audi quattro!

Prices on these are so difficult to set.

Existing prices for set and figure are extremely high and demand is unknown for
these at a lower price.

Demand clearly isn’t there at the prices being asked but a figure sold last month
at a high price, this however was far below current asking prices.

The mini figs in this Quattro set are likely much more expensive making the above
a bargain.

Price it to sell, or price it to sit on for years.
Leave it to your Grandson after you be dead?
