The J.C. Penny Wabash FM Trainmaster goes for 2 - 3 times the price of the other modern era FM trainmasters of similar construction, which is still less than the original street price.
I can agree that little to none of the "hot" modern era trains have retained their value.
But you know what they say about instant collectables.
There are people who are collecting MPC, and interest is increasing. Part of that interest is likely generated by the relatively low prices for which this stuff can be purchased.
