I have two Leonardo Collection, never used figurines, 1477A and 1477B. They are still in the same package that they came in. I have been unable to locate them online. How much are they worth?

I have done some searching online and it appears nobody has listed them before or the listing are so old. One way to determine the value of these figurines is to check on the price of how much they would cost if you were to purchase them again. I have tried to find the value of new figurines that are being sold and I am not even finding the value of a new one or a replacement one. I have looked on eBay to check out prices. Some figurines are not rare and are selling for around $8-15. Considering I am not finding yours they could be considered rare and in this case people are asking around $75 for each one of them.
You do not say where you are located so the value would be different in different countries.
There are thousands of Leonardo figurines listed for sale all over the world but it appears that most listings are centered on the UK and not very many in the US.

There are a lot of 'fake' Leonardo figurines listed for sale as many sellers see figurines that resemble the Leonardo items and just merely state they are Leonardo but never show markings and then there are genuine 'fakes' that have a tag on the stand but nothing else. Some of these were made when these items were more valuable and sold as genuine items.
I believe it's possible your set may fall in the last category and here are my reasons for thinking this.
1.) Figurines do not have shoes and this is the most common 'change' that fake figurines have. I could only find one genuine lady Leonardo figurine that did not wear shoes and she is wearing a nightgown.
2.) The faces/hair do not look like any lady figurine that I've seen but this could be that not too many were made with this type of face.
3.) Figurines always come in boxes that have information about the figurines. You do not show boxes but if you have them, please post pictures.
4.) Genuine figurines have a mark/stamp on the bottom of the figurine with name of figure and date and/or the name Leonardo made into the porcelain of the figure.
Bottom line: this type figurine is so plentiful that value is very, very low; especially in the UK - most are selling for under $10-15.

Sorry that I cannot help but if you can post/add pictures of boxes or markings on bottom of figurines I feel sure someone will be able to help you.
There are similar but not identical on Etsy, eBay, Chairish. They are asking between $25 and $75. If you have collectable ones , do auction/bid. Make sure you stage them well!
