Joseph Colton isn't a figure that should be great. But, he's a guy who works. There's not much to him. But, it's enough to make him stand out and work with Joes from every era. I get him out often enough. And, he's relatively popular among photographers. There was a time when this guy was the hottest figure in the hobby. You don't see them as often, now, but back in the late 1990's, there were tons of carded 1993 and 1994 figures with cut UPC codes where adult collectors had purchased retail figures just to get the UPCs to mail away for the Joseph Colton figure.
But, since collectors were obsessive, tons and tons of Coltons went into the collecting world. And, the figure is barely worth more now than he was 30 years ago. But, that's OK. It's allowed newer collectors to get a high quality figure for their collections.
