Do UPCs really matter that much...?

If you need to return one to a different store then yes. I bought two (one from GS which isn't here yet and another from Amazon which came in damaged). Amazon doesn't have anymore so I can't exchange it, but Gamestop said they would if the UPC is the same.

I'm hoping this is the correct place for this and I hope I'm not derailing this thread but I have a question that I hope you guys can answer for me.

As we all know there is a release of the Prestige Lord of Cinder statue only in NA and everyone knows about it being released by GameStop online only.
GameStop Statue

Well, I found this one being released by Bandai Namco.

The three differences I could find are as follows:
1) Bandai Namco comes with patches
2) Release date and
3) Biggest difference in my opinion is the numbered amount. Namco Bandai states limited to 1000 and GameStop has limited to 2000.

Am I just crazy or has this topic been discussed before? Do other people know about this and I'm just out of the loop? I am on the fence on buying this with all the other things I'm buying right now so, maybe, a little clarification will help me decide.

TIA guys.

EDIT: Sorry guys, did not see this discussed in another thread. I was premature in my findings. Thanks anyways and sorry for the waste of real estate in this post.

Yeah, seems like speculation so far but conversation starts within this thread on what they think the numbers mean.

Starts at Toasty the Baker's comment on #543.

Not gonna lie, it totally derailed my thread (still don't have an answer to my question) but...I didn't know Bandai was selling the statue so I preordered one there as well just incase there is a difference from the GS version. Plus the patches are really cool.
