IcedDog, my friend, no, at least for now.
For pieces where my instinct screams "Future grail", i PO one and then wait for production pics with the exception being the 1/6 Guts/Griffith Prime1 pieces where i POed them all together (3 each/6 in total) cause i knew that they were selling out even before Prime1 would deliver them. So for majority of "future grails" and as soon as i'm satisfied by QC (provided that Sideshow delivers ~80% close to proto quality), i order the 2nd one. I'm also constraint by space, although i'm currently moving nearly 2/3 of my collection elsewhere.
For such EPIC pieces (the likes of Penguin PFF, Wolverine Berserker, Iron Spider, Dazzler) owning 1 is not enough. I want one to stay in its box. Its Forps'duty to preserve art at all costs.
I have OG Hulk gr and Hulk vs Spiderman gr dio and i am keeping them in their boxes. Imagine such masterpieces to accidentally get broken/smashed.
Forps wants to preserve art at ALL COSTS.
"Art, Forps? These are comic-based characters, Forps. These are glorified toys for grown-up men"
Well for me, i consider them as a form of art (a bit of childish one, though, lol)
