What do we think? This might be the one I end up getting, which will result in a lot more new stuff taking shape. Is there something coming down the pipes I should hold off for?

I have a 3x. It's a solid printer! Get a glass bed for it, I use prit stick style glue to help adhesion and it works brilliantly. If I were to suggest something, and you have a spare room with good ventilation to run it in, I would get a resin printer instead. You can hit much higher definition with resin.

I like mine, I second the glass bed. I printed a bunch of your 2mm buildings recently, and they turned out great. I have had it for a year and started having extruder problems, the filament stopped feeding. But I bought an aluminum upgrade that cost me a whopping $10.
I print mostly terrain but will post some picks of your units once I get the extruder swapped out.

I have an Ender3. To be clear, if you take your time learning the machine you will good results with the stock model. Get the spring upgrade, glass bed and a set of .2 nozzles. I print miniatures(with .2 nozzle) and terrain (with .4 nozzle). The real hassle comes from keeping the filament relatively dry to reduce stringing (you can remove most with careful use of a hairdryer). Level the bed properly and adhesive is not needed. For really tricky prints I go all the way up to using a raft for keeping the print stable.

Yep those are very good value and a glass bed is great. I'm not sure what extruder they have but its worth upgrading to something like a Trianglelabs dual driver extruder or a E3D Titan.
If it is all leveled then you don't need an glue sticks etc.
