Rick, I agree the collector that collects them all are far and few. The most common collector is the "by region" or "by state" collector.

The problem is Harbour Lights doesn't release them with this is mind. They are randomly picking what they believe are "interesting" lighthouses. They have or are close to putting some collectors to sleep.

The interesting lighthouses will sell when bought as a second item when a collector buys the latest release for the state they collect.

IMO, Why not release, atleast every other year, a lighthouse from every coastal state. Keeping everybodies interest going.
