you pretty much couldn't care less what you get, so long as it says Star Wars and Hot Toys on the box....
We have a lot of those people here. Many Star Wars fans are like that. The HT herd is actually slimming though.
Personally, I think $300 for one figure plus a duplicate is excessive. But I also think $250 (HT's new base price) is way high for a figure, even with nice tailoring and a good sculpt.
The idiocy of us paying these prices will not be clear until about a decade out and looking back. Remember what you use to pay for a .0001 3 3/4" Vader on the Red Card with short saber in long tray?
