It's not that odd at all. For people like me I'm not really a "collector" - I dont just buy it cos I like it, I buy it cos it's a souvenier from the movie and I only really want souveniers or collectables to remind me of a movie I liked.
Even if the movie was great, I personnaly would still hesitate to buy immediatly anyway cos the movie hasnt stood the test of time nor have I grown up watching it (another souvenier, not just of the movie but of my childhood).
I agree with this 100%. That's why I don't collect everything in a line, I just have random figures. Though I did purchase a Jack Shephard figure but I don't really like his character. I just wanted something in my collection to represent Lost.
