    they are all "worth it" to get depending on your projects...
    Each of them are essential building blocks in many different morphs.

    all of the hypos, being recessive will take longer to reproduce if you are running to normals. Bees and blasts are awesome "lowend" combos that can be made near you asking price.

    Everyone's opinion will be different, so I'm not sure what you are hoping to glean from other's opinions. In the end, it's your opinion that matters the most in what you get.

    I've never chosen an animal based on other people's opinion - they weren't the ones that would have to look at the animal day after day and clean its poop every week.

    I pick what "I" like, what "I" want to work with. What other people think of my choices really doesn't matter, as I'm the only one who has to live with my choices.

    I't depends whether you want a male or a female. you could add Enchi, Mojave, Yellow Belly, Black Pastel, Het Red Axanthic, Cinnamon, Lesser, Spotnose, Woma. Some of these you could only get a male in, but it might give you a better idea.

    It really depends on what you like and whether you're getting it to look at or breed. Of what you mentioned I like the pinstripe the best.

    If I were looking to produce morphs in the future, I'd scout around for a couple of female pastels or a female pastel and a female yb and grow them out. You can pick up one of each for under $300 total if you look around. A year or so down the line you can pick up a male pin or spider and be ready to start making combos when all are of size. Picking up a male mojo is another option. I've seen those for under $150.

    If you want to breed hets, I've seen het pied pairs for around $300.

    If you just want a nice looking pet, I've seen several male lessers for $300 recently.
