Collecting the fledgelings is the cheapest way to collect Windstones that I care to venture, as far as the ones painted by Windstone go. I don't like the hatchlings, or the young dragons much, and the male, lap dragon, and old warrior, (the other sculpts I like) are out of my price range, mostly.
Unfortunately there's proving to be one snag in my scheme to get a fledgeling in every color. They seem to have only made the white ones very, very briefly before retiring the white color.
So white fledgelings tend to sell for four or five times what they originally went for, at least.
This guy, for example, still has five days left, and is already creeping up towards the upper limits of my budget.
It almost tempts me to bid on of the complete white sets you sometimes see. (There's one up now.) Sets sell for less per dragon than individuals. I could then sell off the others for a profit.
