What's not to like in modern stamps like this?
With limited prints runs these (and even many of the CTOs) are likely far more difficult to obtain than say Penny Black (though only at a fraction of a cost).

re: Question for my collecting brothers who collect worldwide to recent times !
I collect every thing so all of the odd new countries to infinity and back. I even include "Dunes". While Scott does not currently recognize many of them, Michel does and much of the rest of the world seems to collect them. I've only recently limited my collection to used and even that is fluid. In early colonies, I am like nature ad abhor a vacuum so if mint fills the space, mint it is part of the collection until I find used. I figure it is my collection and I set the rules so I can break them.

I have no doubt that is a part of their plan.
It can be thwarted by seeking postally used or at least cancelled such that you can convince yourself might have been postally used.
