The idea of "Strictly Limited" editions doesn't bother me at all even though as a new collector there are retired or limited edition items I can never hope to own because of cost. But that's okay, there's plenty of great stuff still avaiable right now and looks like penty more to come. I think that its nice to have limited editions come out every so often that set themselves apart from the rest and I've found that any collector that builds a good relationship with a dealer or several dealers, they're going to make sure you're aware of the upcoming models and ask if you'd like to reserve one. I don't however agree with the practice of buying several models for resale and leaving that many less available for "little" guy. If you buy two or even three because you really love the piece, or maybe to trade for something you don't have, fine, but if you're buying them by the case to sell on ebay then I think Michael makes a valid point.
