I'd say better than reasonable... I got one last year (or should I say Pete
White got one for me) for (IIRC) $60. That was a reasonable price (and
consistent with my cents-per-piece purchasing for 2001)

I think the major reason they didn't sell well was that they contained no
major characters (and not even a useful 'generic' such as a battledroid)
that kids could relate to. Watto and that ugly thin one piece alien seem to
have pretty slim play value.
Even an Anakin would have made it more playable.
