LEGO Martian Manhunter Exclusive Minifigure: Sales or Fails?

I have been curious about Martian Manhunter's presence in the market. For those of you who don't know, an exclusive LEGO Martian Manhunter minifigure polybag will be added automatically to any purchase of $75 or more from the LEGO Shop. It's an exclusive promotion that will be available during the entire month of March, or until supplies run out. As a LEGO, Super Heroes, DC Comics, and Justice League fan, I will absolutely place an order ASAP. I know I have to get one, but my question, from an investing perspective is, "Should I get another?" Should I make a second, separate purchase of $75 to get another figure? I know it's not a New York Comic-Con figure, but it's a fantastic one nonetheless! It's something every Justice League & Justice League Unlimited fan has wanted, and without paying for a custom! Or am I the only one? So in short, will this minifigure be a huge success as far as polybagged minifigures go, or is it one where I should leave well-enough alone? From a comics fan's perspective, it looks to be a way bigger deal than LEGO's "May the 4th" promotion where you get an unrecognizable figure. My gut tells me it's going to sell for at least $30 or more. Is it wishful thinking though? I need experts and non-experts alike to help in this decision. Am I the only one who wants this figure so badly?
