That's kind of the trap in this hobby. Sometimes it's hard to appreciate what you got and not jump on the newest figure release when the hype train is full steam ahead

Yep.
I just started collecting last year. After realizing I missed out on the Avengers line my first thought was "Holy **** it's going to cost me alot to get all of them."
After a few months of crying, I realized that more versions would be released and I didn't really love any of the Avengers costumes except for Loki and the Mark VII.
I think this is going to be one of those highly desirable figures down the line.
1) It's exclusive and presumably less of this version will be made
2) It may very well be the only sleeveless version of Thor we'll see. Maybe they'll figure out a swapable arm for the A2 Thor but I doubt it.
3) The cool base
4) With Thor wearing basically the same costume in 2 movies, this may very well be his definitive look for many. If he's sleeveless in A2 but there isn't a new HT sleeveless version I expect this one to go for big bucks in a year.

Yeah Like you, I started collecting about 6 months ago. I only have Loki from the Avengers line. I had Thor but let him go, didn't like that version of him AT ALL!! But yeah, this Light Asgardian looks very promising.

Iron man figures are like a booby trap.. so I stay away from them.. Just have one (Mark 6).. Hawkeye's prices are ridiculous.. so obvious no. I can wait on Hulk, no rush.
Oh and I have Avengers Cap too but letting him go.. Golden Age Cap looks good to me.

IM and Cap figures are a huge trap, I will have 12 IM figures and 6 Cap figures by the end of the year and after AoU I'm sure i will be PO more.

If you don't mind me asking, when did you get on it? I just jumped on last week, and I'm curious...
Thanks!
