I've gladly payed upwards of $15 each for Mexican mimp bootlegs from the 90s which are outrageously beautiful. I do have to say that I get them closer to $10 or under these days though.
Also, depending on what you mean by translucent they could be from a lot of places. Clear are sonrics from Mexico. Translucent with color can be Cromy from Argentina, Greek mimp or even Mexican bootlegs.
Sonrics are not bootlegs SMHM80; they are third party licensed; and while they are not as good quality as matchbox they are far from bad. Most of my transparent are nearly perfect . not to mention that many of them are exceptionally rare which is why they command a high price.
