I think way too much emphasis is put on future values! I love HL's and I don't care if they are LE's, OE's, Retired, or even if they will ever retire or increase in value. I will never sell my collection so the future value doesn't really matter to me. My heirs can worry about that. I collect what I LIKE! If I like it, I buy it and whether it's Limited or Open doesn't have any bearing on my purchase. I'm not ashamed to say that many GLOW's far surpass the originals in quality and are a much closer representation of the real lighthouse. Go to Mackinaw City, MI with both pieces and see which one looks like the real thing. I don't own the LE and never will will because I feel it simply doesn't do the old structure justice. The GLOW on the other hand, with all it's detail, takes me back to my favorite lighthouse every time I look at it.
