Well rare / what something is worth, implies that it not only is hard to find but that you and others consider it worth finding. As I said before, Rick at New Force Comics, I do believe that I remember him saying, at one time, buying them for $1,000 / $1,100 dollars. Of course he is a dealer and was looking to resale them I'm sure, what he got for one was more. After prices stared to drop on all things Trek ( I had picked up my third Thomas Riker for $50 and a Red Shirt Data for about the same money) I contacted him and asked if he had one and he said that he did. If I remember right at the time he quoted me $600 / $650 and I could get a carded Mego Romulan for about $300. I decided to dig deep (after a discussion with my wife) and buy it, but by the time i did, it was gone. In the end I looked 3 years and found this one

This is the Playmates Dathon. This figure came with the "Pog or Space cap" as they were called rather then the card that was with the more common one. This version was released only in Australia and the UK and reportedly there were only (1,100). The resource guide at http://www.newforcecomics.com/trekref says that 700 went to the UK and 400 to AU. I looked for 3 years to find one I could afford and ( i guess that I could have missed one) I have never seen for sale on Ebay.
