Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I could care less for prints...
First off, there isn't always a huge discrepancy in prices between the EX and regular editions. That is entirely dependent on just how well recieved the EX version really is. Switch out portraits are my personal favorites. And while you may not be impressed with most of the EX's you have seen, that doesnt mean other people feel the same way. Your opinion is ultimately just an individual subjective opinion in a large world of subjective opinions. Personally, I can list a LOT of EX's that I considered absolute must buy's. Just to name a few more recent examples:

Thanos
Captain Marvel
Skeletor
Dark Phoenix
Power Girl
Angela
Batgirl

Dont get me wrong, if people like yourself are perfectly content with buying the regular versions then there is absolutely nothing wrong with doing just that, but its not hard to understand why EX's in general are more sought after and hence more valuable, especially the really well recieved EX's.

I´m not sure if the guy you replied to, reads this. His last visit in this Forum was in the year you joined.

Actually, a single paragraph followed by a tiny list and a couple sentences would be a FAR more accurate description, but I know some of you still find the length of my posts highly amusing, which is highly amusing in itself, but I am the last person to rob people of thier cheap thrills. So 3 paragraphs it is. And yep, I failed to realize I was responding to a post that was extremely old. Crap, thats a bannable offence for me. I wonder if I'll make it through the day before Monster finds out. I feel another "abuse of power" coming on.....

Lol! You gotta admit it's funny! I never really look at dates myself. If it's at the top I just read and respond.
