I pay more because I get cool merchandise for the price, PLUS a minion/emote.
I wouldn't consider that unpopular at all since every new release with a limited item comes with a thread of people baffled by these items being locked.

A minion/emote isn't selling artbooks, but I do think they sold the less expensive streams for the Fanfests.
