Only a few weeks until Darth Mater will be auctioned off at this year's Children Affected by Aids Foundation's Dream Halloween event on October 25, 2008. Learn more about this fine organization! Visit this link Children Affected by Aids Foundation so you can bid on Darth Mater. The big question is will Darth Mater break the record for dollars raised?! I say Yea!
I checked and the record Auction Price was $30,000 for the Cindy Crawford doll a few years ago. The Whoopi Goldberg doll that sold for an Auction Price of $20,000 garnered more by having another check of $20,000 added by the Mattel CEO so he could have lunch with Whoopi. So, technically that item brought in $40,000. There is strong speculation that interested parties from Skywalker Ranch, and a person from some studio in Emeryville, California may bid high on ole Darth! What could he go for? I'd say a healthy range of $60k to $100k could be possible, and would certainly help the organization!
I was told at Comic-Con that a die cast version of Darth Mater for Halloween 2008 would be a strong possibility. Indications are it won't happen this year. We'll see what 2009 brings. It would be foolish for Mattel not to release Darth Mater as at least a MattyCollector.com exclusive. There it could be jazzed up with a light-up light saber, or a sound chip and be a collector's piece!
How will Jamie Lee show up dressed this year? Will Darth Mater break Records? Take part in my latest poll at the top left of the page and we'll find out if you're right in a few weeks!

Some Philanthropic Star Wars Fan or Industry Insider will scoop this up for this foundation at a pretty penny. I think well over 100,000 k for this rare item. You may want to adjust the scale up to 250,000k. Just my opinion.
I think that some philanthropic Star Wars Insider or Fan will surely pay over 100k for this rare item. I think your scale for guessing should go up to 250k or maybe 500k. Just my opinion.
