I remember at first the whole long/short light saber crap the first run figs were commanding a good secondary market price. I'm glad I only got the ones I wanted. Most if not all are MOC and worthless. I remember driving out to the mall to trade a han faced Leia for a Lando because my boss needed one. At one point I had one of the Boaba Fett variants that were supposed to be worth something. The only difference was a half painted circle on his hand. Lame.

Tru dat. I had my girlfriend get me the Angel for my birthday because I would not pay that much for it. Unless you really want it paying over retail is just going to loose you money in the long run and in a few years there is always something better on the horizon.
