Which version do you have?
For the cheapest way to own the Metal Armored Bug AST-005, buy the Standard version for $0. The 1st Edition version at $1 offers a slight premium, likely related to its initial release or perceived scarcity, though the difference is minimal here. If your goal is just collection completeness on a budget, stick to Standard. If you value owning the earliest print run, the $1 investment for the 1st Edition is worthwhile.
