YORK, PA.- Veteran collectors of action figures may think they’ve seen it all, but the team at Hake’s Auctions says wait – there’s more. Much more! Starting in January 2025, the Pennsylvania-based company, which holds numerous world records in pop culture categories, will auction the internationally renowned Jeff Jacob action figure collection.

Jacob’s 30+ year assemblage comprising more than 3,000 pieces cuts a wide but highly selective swath across the action-figure universe, starting with 1970s Star Wars characters and progressing into the 1980s with premier G.I. Joes, Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Masters of the Universe and other productions. Nearly all figures, playsets, vehicles and other related items in the collection are AFA-graded. Most are high grade, and some are the highest-graded examples of their type in the entire AFA Population Report.

“It is by far the largest and most extensive action figure collection ever to come to auction. Many of the figures have never appeared at auction before; they’ve always been privately owned. As for the collection’s value? It’s in the multimillions,” said Alex Winter, president of Hake’s Auctions.

The fully-illustrated auction catalog exclusively featuring the Jeff Jacob Collection Part I is expected to mail out shortly after New Year’s Day. Simultaneously, a digital version of the catalog will post online. Visit Hake’s website and follow them on social media for auction highlights and updates throughout 2024 and beyond.
