To make a long story short, I fell in love. I know 1:400 will still remain my top focus, and 1:250 lacks many new releases but I wont think twice about buying another one.
Well, for me, I was hooked at first sight. This scale seems perfect for display and detail. I love the GJ line, and wish the other top names in the business would follow suit, but as you said, 1/250 scale lacks many new releases. Maybe the rarity of releases will make them a valuable asset in the future, maybe not. I like 1/400 scale, too, but 1/250 got me into the hobby in the first place.
