Something vintage or something new?

Ok, So I may be coming into a decent amount of money fairly soon, and of course, the disposable part of it is going to toys So my question is this: Does one get a really nice vintage piece, something normally way out of reach without saving and missing out on the recent releases, or does one get something modern, that again, due to price is normally out of reach?
I definitely don't want to nickle and dime my funds away- it would be easy to do with various imports and past releases that have gone up a good deal in price, but the chance to get something special is pretty uncommon.
So, something like a full MakeToys Green Giant? Or perhaps a couple of Takara MPs that cost big bucks ALA MP-11 Starscream, and Takara Grimlock?
Or should looking into a nice vintage piece be the way to go? Perhaps a Star Saber, or maybe a couple of the G1 gestalts in really nice complete condition?
I'm very indecisive on this, so I'm leaning on your input. Cheers!
