It all depends on how much you really like the swords. Only someone who is really keen on them is going to shell out the heavy bucks. The casual collector won't. You could say the Museum Collection is the one that is going to separate the men/women collectors from the boy/girl collectors.
What you're saying is true, but what I was saying, is that people were all hyped up about the Museum Collection, but so few have bought them. Sure, a lot of people can not afford them, but those who wanted them but don't have them know how much a 'functional' sword would cost, so money shouldn't really be too much of an issue should it? Especially since we knew about this line a long time before it was released, resulting in time to save.
Well whatever! It isn't only members of this forum buying LOTR swords now is it! I just hope sales are good enough for United to justify making the REALLY e xp ensive MC versions, which are of course the full size swords consisting of Glamdring and Anduril, and whatever may follow
