How Much Would You Pay for a Golden Bionicle Mask

A copy of the rare Bionicle Golden Kanohi Hau Mask was found at a Goodwill in Pennsylvania recently. You can see an article from a local news station on it here or just search for it on your favorite search engine. The Goodwill store posted it on an online auction and made $23,301 for the mask. Apparently there was a bid for $33,000, but the person failed to pay.

I’m not a big Bionicle fan nor do I know all of the background, but why would you pay so much for this? Is it the uniqueness? Do they hope to be able to re-sell it for a higher amount someday? That’s a lot of cash to dump on an item you wanted “just because.”

With that being said, I guess it doesn’t hurt to stop in at your local Goodwill shop to see if they have any random LEGO items in stock.

Happy buidling!
