I don't think I'd spend coins on it, but I might throw £30 worth of points on my account and see who I get. It would work out well for everyone I feel. EA make loads of money, people have a chance to get TOTS players again in packs, and the increased number of TOTS players on the market will drive the prices down and make them more affordable for everyone. Wins all around.
Shame EA don't want anyone to get the TOTS players though so they keep spending more and more money trying to get one. Since TOTS started I've probably opened 1000+ packs.
