To many collectors today, they represent the barrier to a complete set of Secret Wars figures, making listings like this upcoming Heritage auction an event.
These were plastic clip-on shields included with each Secret Wars figure, that came with interchangeable holographic art depicting the characters’ secret identities and battle scenes between them and other Secret Wars characters.
Spider-Man was reissued, this time in his black costume (introduced during the Secret Wars storyline), and was the only character in this wave to actually appear in Secret Wars.

That’s how characters like these Secret Wars figures become grail items, each worth an estimated $1-2k mint on card.
