Why don't you keep your HUO LOTR and keep the LE as NIB. That would be worth something down the road.

That's a lot for a backglass.
Who you trying to impress you or someone else? I would be unimpressed paying that kind of money for a BG.
It's the same argument I have for opting for a TAF vs TAFG. I prefer the TAF colours. The only reason for the "G" would be bragging rights and to me it just ain't worth the extra for it.
SMB I would say offered a better overall package for the premium. Chrome, shaker etc. This offering of the LE has little more to offer for the extra money. |

That's pretty much it... bragging rights. when I said it will not gather much more money, of course, there is ALWAYS an infinitessimally small group of collectors ready to pay premium price for a pin with a couple of small changes to it. But if you don't care for the overpriced extras, leave it. Ask anyone who has had a Limited/Gold/Special edition... It's just not all that great. |

Until they go to sell it, then it's the greatest thing since sliced bread and they wish they didn't have to part with it  |

In fact, it has less. It doesn't come with the figures on the playfield. My routed LOTR is missing Merry (or was it Pippin) on the slingshot. So I went on ebay and bought a replacement toy, but I haven't got around to making a base for it and attaching it to the slingshot plastic. I'd hate to have to do all those toys, yuck. |
