First of all, thanks for your detailed response!
I think everyone has their own way of approaching collecting.
Back then, I didn’t mind having 30 Spartans with just different scales, sitting unused in a display case.
Now, I really enjoy using all of them — even if the model is discontinued, old, or rare.
Sometimes, when we chase rarity too much, we forget that these are tools meant to be used.
I also feel like people who do custom work are less interested in older models or limited editions… though maybe that’s just my impression.
