The Hot Toys MMS479 Thanos figure typically sells for between $350 and $450 in new, sealed condition. Open box or used copies generally range from $250 to $350 depending on the completeness of accessories and condition. Prices fluctuate based on current market demand and availability on secondary markets like eBay.
Hot Toys does not provide official authentication certificates for individual MMS figures, so verification relies on physical inspection rather than documentation. Check for the specific "MMS479" and "Avengers: Infinity War" logos on the box, along with the correct Hot Toys holographic sticker and serial number. Inspect the figure for high-quality paint applications, detailed fabric textures on the armor, and the presence of all included accessories, as counterfeits often have poor molding and loose joints.

Hot Toys officially discontinued the MMS 479 Thanos figure, so it is no longer in print or available as new stock from the manufacturer. Collectors can only find this item through secondary markets, where availability depends on remaining inventory from resellers or private sellers.
Hot Toys does not assign official numerical grades to their figures, so condition is determined by visual inspection of the vinyl and fabric components. Check for surface scratches on the armor, loose joints, and any discoloration or wear on the Infinity Gauntlet stones. Verify that all included accessories, such as the Infinity Gauntlet and display base, are present and undamaged.
