good point, but in the meantime, it gains value and the price goes higher and higher...(not by much of course),....but for me, I've let pieces go int he past for similar reason to yours and then found myself later on wanting it and realizing that I have to end up paying much more for it...

I don't know.....just my thoughts....

good luck to you andf what you decide....

Cheers!!

Initially I wasn't going to buy the Yoda on Kybuck for the exact same reason but after seeing it in person I changed my mind. I think I was more upset at the fact that GG decided to do a second Yoda when there were so many other great choices from the cartoon yet to be produced. Once I got over the fact that the line was ending and this was all we were going to get I realized it was still a great maquette regardless of my feelings on how the line was handled.

I'm sorry brother....

Look, try this....

get them all if you can while they're still reasonably priced. (provided you have the funds at this time)

When you see them at home,....in your space,....with the rest of your collection...then decide from there if whether or not you'd want to keep them.

Regardless, if in fact you would want to seel them......they will sell. In fact, you could just keep them in storage until you're ready to sell them. Someone will buy them...

The flip side is that they might inspire a new way of displaying your pieces....maybe you'll group them differently,....who knows...

For me,.....I'm getting ALL SEVEN (7) of the Wolverine statues being released by Bowen,...although I don't susepct I'll KEEP them all, I do believe that I'd rather have them in my home amongst my colletcion to see how they'd fit, etc...how they may each inspire a new set up, some changes, etc.....and of course, if one or two or three don't work, I can always put them away for a bit in storage,...and later sell it or simply "rotate them"...

But again, for me, I need to physically have them to see if they work or not int he space, with the rest of the pieces, etc......

Sorry to add confusion.....
