Which one do I let go off?

Hi guys, new on the forums.

I currently have a Hulk & a Batman, both bought brand new.
My AD called today and said my 2018 pepsi GMT is here and ready for pickup.

My question is, which one of the two I own currently do I let go for the pepsi?

Wish I can keep all 3 but would be difficult.

Batman - what's the point of two GMT's rather than one GMT and one Sub?

Great point but not a green sub... LN all day long or even a Sea Dweller...
Classic and most versatile... that's the winning combo if Batman must go
in a limited collection !!!

I was going to say the same. If keeping all 3 meant instant noodles for the forseeable future it would be worth it.

Lol my thoughts exactly. I would lean towards the BLNR b/c you don't really need 2 GMTs, but they look so different from each other. Keep everything and buy!

If it's that difficult to afford all three then perhaps you should sell two and get down to one.

Financial advice from random strangers on the Internet is always an interesting proposal.

Get rid of the BLNR. It would be easier to get than a BLRO in this current environment.

I would either trade the BLNR for the Pepsi-only if you have to part with one. No need for two GMTs in my opinion.

I would try to add the Pepsi though.

I am with the general consensus, GMT for GMT.
