I recall a bendable stretchy toy in the 70s (not very sure if it reached the 80s) Stretch Armstrong(?). One of the figures of the line, a green monster or something, it was said to have bombed with the kids and released in lesser stocks.......it now commands top cash for collectors today.
So imagine MP-05 20 years from now......

I just sold mine for $150 via auction. Complete, opened, undamaged.
I think he was only $100 at release. Not sure how that's worthless...

The reason Stretch Monster (and other 'stretch' toys) command such a high price, is that very few managed to survive all these years. Most exploded is a sticky mess of corn syrup goo.
