So I have 5-6 of each of the PoC style blue troopers and Vipers, then not more than 2-3 of other army builders that I like. Do you really need 27 techno-vipers?
That's pretty-much always been my feelings on the matter as well. If someone can afford it and they have the space to do it the way they want, then I say knock yourself out. But for me...could you imagine dusting a huge display of accessorized 3-3/4" action figures?! (lol) I shudder at the thought...
On a side note, I also thought I'd like to have the 30th Anniversary/POC (?) Viper that sports the blue arm-guards to serve as the unit commander or corporal, like the color of the arm-guards denoted rank. I just wish there was a unique Steel Brigade figure that could be similarly distinguished as a higher-ranking officer or unit commander.
