yes, seems like some members don't agree with yamato and bandai due they overproduce some items, just like CF. I think this is great because many of us have the opportunity to own more of each. Additionally they are the starting point to be a macross toy collectorr (like me )
In the other hand when there is a new limited edition, many of us put an excessive attention to it. I really love my lowviz, but not because there are few of them out there, but because I like it by itself. Anyway when it was announced as a limited edition many people asked how low were the run and seems happy as much as the figure downs.
My roots in collecting toys was with starwars. I really loved to get every SW related toy in the market but I got dessapointed when some of them were virtually impossible to get/buy, not just because they were "vintage" but due to this "suppossed" low production. (fan collector exclusives, wallmart exclusives, TRU exclusives, theatre opening exclusives, convention exclusives, etc, etc)
I tried to move my hobby to McFarlane lines (they have done a great job with Spawn toys), but I found a similar situation... additional to stupid figure/card variants, BTW.
I guess I supported the educational future of several seller's kids in the past and I dont like to repeat this story.
Sorry, sometimes its difficult to me express correctly an idea, more when you are writting in a non-native language with few neurons working
