Photograph a collectible toy. ToyTrace identifies it down to the variant and shows what sellers are asking for it on eBay right now, with every listing behind the number.
Loose or boxed. The photo goes to our servers to be recognised.
An AI model reads what is visible. Our catalog turns that into the exact product and variant.
What sellers are asking on eBay, how many listings, and the listings themselves.
Where the number comes from
“$18 – $42 asked” is the summary, not the answer. The answer is the 23 listings you can open, read and judge for yourself.
$18 – $42 asked across 23 current listings. A range, because one number would claim a precision the listings do not support.
Underneath it, the listings themselves: photo, title, asking price — fetched live from eBay each time you look.
Too few listings describe condition, so condition is not priced in — the app says that instead of guessing. No listings for the sealed version? It says that too.
Listings are fetched fresh each time and never stored. What you see is what is for sale now.
The difference
Most scanner apps
A figure with nothing under it. You can take it or leave it. You cannot check it.
ToyTrace
typical range $35 – $117
A range, its sample size, its date, and every listing one tap away. If it looks wrong, you can see why, and tell us.

Why we say “asked”
Our figures come from listings currently for sale on eBay. Since August 2026, eBay no longer makes completed sales available to apps like ours, so asking prices are the evidence there is.
Asking prices have a known lean. Realistically priced listings sell and disappear; overpriced ones stay up. So what is listed at any moment tends to sit above what things actually sell for.
We could hide that. Instead we say “asked” on every figure, print the listing count next to it, and let you open the listings. A number you can check beats a confident one you cannot.
Four categories at launch
Vintage and modern, loose or carded, down to outfit and accessory.
Funko Pop numbers, exclusive stickers and chase variants, where the photo shows them.
Hot Wheels and other die-cast: castings, colours, wheel types and the base markings that separate them.
Older toys where maker, era and completeness decide what sellers ask.
No LEGO and no trading cards. We cannot back prices in those categories with evidence yet, and we would rather leave them out than show a number we cannot support.
The app
The result screen is at the top of this page; here is the rest. Screenshots from the iOS app, shown with example items. On a real scan, every figure arrives the same way: a range of current asking prices, with the listings behind it one tap away.
