DOC (which do I open)

So I finally got my new doc with the elbow articulation vs his wrist. My question now which DOC do I open? Which one is going to be the more valuable one in say another 25years....

For me, I'd open the V2 Doc. It's more aesthetically pleasing to not have slit wrists.

I second that, open the one that's more functional, who cares about suicide arms when you're stuck in a plastic shell.

Agreed. I'd say that the v1 will be more valuable. But what do I care, I will open my v2 if it ever comes, as I never got a v1.

open the second one, save the first run, matter fact save both closed, but you aint so open the new one man! first one will have the value, but there are so many an are all collected by adults, not much of these 25th are gonna be worth nuttin! there is tomany of us that have em closed, when we were kids we broke em lost an what have you. we value things as an adult, an there for there will be to many around in the future!

i think the first released one will eventually be more valuable...just like with all "varients" the first run that they change is always rare'r

I think the v2 will be the more valuable.The 2nd run was probably much smaller.There are a ton of v1 docs out.Enough so they could fill orders for 7-8 months.Then they ran another batch for those people in the last 2 months.

I'm sure the v2 is more valuable because a small 2nd run was made to fulfill the open orders.

That being said, I'll gladly open two my v2 Docs
One for the G.I.Joe line up shelf and one for Dio's/Vehicles.

No regrets, I dislike the slit wrist versions too much!
Up for trade: v1 Doc 1x loose & 1x mosc

There will be more v2, so open that one. Plus it looks better.
