What usually helps me make my decision is figuring out which of the two will still be there for me to get later on. If a mask or figure or something is going to be limited production or an individual is selling it, I will go for it. I also think really hard about how much I want the thing. Alot of times, stuff has that initial "new" appeal that fades away shortly after and then ends up in storage or being resold for less than I paid for it.
