I hear ya Mudshark, and thanks for the advice on not repeating my Hicks mistake, which thankfully you rectified for me. I DO want the Elder, but, I've already trimmed down my pre-orders and such to things I really want and would really value having in my collection, and even the P2 probably wouldn't have made it in but I dropped the PredAlien and P2 will take that's place. There's just lots I want for collectibles, but I also need to start being more sensible with my money, I've had my juvenile, frivelous spending years, now I need to be mature and logical about things. Thing for me is, I often contemplate all my uses for these figures, and for me, collecting figures is about being able to enjoy all the aspects from sculpts to pose possibilities and all, and of course photographic and artistic potential as well. P2 is a figure I think I'll have a blast with capturing various film poses and taking different photographs and such of. P2 Elder is a great looking figure, but minor in character and I just see it more as shelf eye candy, it doesn't affect me to a point where I feel I'd really enjoy having it in my collection, and I'm trying to cut down to pieces that really give me a sense of satisfaction having it and what price I paid for it.
