Though I guess these debates are only about characters that are NOT the Hulk. Nobody seems to scream -- "sell that old one" when MORE Hulk crap comes up for sale. Those Gamma Bros know how to build a collection.

I don't think you're an oddball at all. I think most collectors buy more than one of at least some characters.
There are a lot of different characters I like and will buy, but not every one hits that threshold. Mags is definitely a multiple-statue kind of character for most, I'd say. Like Spider-man, Iron Man, etc.
I've got two Magnetos, and missed out on buying a few more, and none of them will be leaving before or after acquiring this new one.

Yes, you are an oddball, Demona, and I am too since I have 4 one quarter Storms. I see no problem with having the same character if they are different looking statues.

Without seeing a picture and knowing the ES will say TBD To be Determined? HELL NO! That's why SSC is OVER MAKING every single piece. Stop PO'ing until the Edition Size is announced. SIMPLE
You guys need to think about the market and how we all will get screwed over if it does burst, even for the love of the character and statue have some respect for your money and it's value when you bought the piece, Nobody should want a piece they bought to sell in the secondary market for less money than they paid for originally. That is just madness and stupidity at it's best. Unless you are a trustfund baby then have some DAMN respect for your hard earn dollars.

If SSC has this superior quality control then I would have no problem throwing them extra money but they don't and it's been lacking for a while and it's a hit or miss depending on the roll of the dice.
Raise Quality up and you will deserve extra money.

Call me oddball too then ...because I'd be willing to have multiple statues of Mags.
I won't be letting go of my XM Mags even if SSC makes an out-of-this-world Mags statue!
I'm willing to have both. If the SSC Mags comes out stellar, then I'll get that too.
