Down the line I'm sure there will be a ROTJ version of Goldenrod with a damaged eye and straightened mid-section wiring. Maybe even an exclusive with the Ewok ceremonial chair?

Since I have the diecast not really interested in this. Maybe down the road if SS has slashed the price and for some reason it makes sense. $229 does seem steep. I guess SS is figuring this is the new price point. Right now I'm holding on buying any SS Star Wars until I see what's on HT's docket. The only way that will change is if it's extremely well done PT characters since it doesn't look like HT will be doing those for a while, or an OT character not in HT's plans. I do have to pick up Hoth Han and a Taun Taun or two, but waiting for those to go on sale.
Tamashii shall now level out in price at $230. So everyone has options.
Get the threepio that's best for you.

I'll get X-wing Luke on ebay in a year for $175.
Waiting is your best bet on everything now a days. Already the Troopers 2 pack has dropped $32. on some sites and even X-Wing Luke is down $20. which still isn't enough in my book.
I'm thinking $150. Just look at all the older SS SW figures now on ebay. $49. for most of them These figures are not for investment purposes anymore.

On what site is the trooper 2 pack $32 cheaper?
I paid less.
I don't think I can either. Do I really need two Threepio? I ended owning two Vaders and I only wanted one. I can't even get rid of Vayda 2.0 Ex.

I can see not wanting another C3PO if you have the Tamashi version already. To me he's a character I only need one of and personally I like this one a bit more due to the weathered look but in the long run having this version and the cleaner version isn't necessary. I'm thinking most of my Star Wars display will be A New Hope based with a couple exceptions so this version works well for me.
LOL@SS thinkin they're Hot Toys!
most never were, really
Yeah I never looked at my toys for investment purposes -- those days ended in 1995 when absolutely everyone started collecting.

Have you seen what happens to the price of certain Lego sets when they get retired? Some double or even triple almost overnight. But I don't disagree with you in principle, all this stuff is hoarded new in box numbering in the thousands.

The 2.0 trend once and for all killed the notion of 1/6 figures as investments.
