I have enough store credit to either buy 2 Tarmogoyf's (my first 2) or finish my playset of Tropical Islands. What should I get? I feel like Goyf will be reprinted again and I should get my duals while they aren't $$$$.
Easily Tropical Islands.
Goyfs can and probably will be reprinted but Tropical Islands will never get a reprint.

Sounds like I'm buying Trops, any suggestions on whether or not I buy my set of Survival of the Fittest's as well in case of an un-ban.
If you want to speculate on it getting unbanned and going infinite sure, although honestly getting more staples is probably better, it gives you more options as to what you can play and build and you know for sure you can play it, whereas with survival you might be able to play it in two months, you might not get to play with them in like two years
Pick up your staples first, then worry about investments / speculations later.
Thank you all for the advice, I guess I'll just do the trops for now, I'm still unsure what I want to build in legacy at the moment. I have almost all of my duals and all of my fetches but my wife is using my blue stuff for UR Delver so I have to play something non-blue. I have Goblins and D&T built but I want to do Junk. Cant decide if that means Loam, Pod, or Junk good stuff (dont own goyf's).
Nicfit is an option in Junk colors. It lets you run alot of sweet spells and has alot of built in flexibility.
I guess it's a bit unstable. Otoh it should eat Delver decks alive... unless it gets really clunky draws.
Speaking of SotF - it does cost what, sixty bucks per set? If you really got some money, and if you're sure you'd play it in case of an unban, now is the time to speculate. It's not like your wallet will bleed to death, and I don't think Survival will drop any lower, it's in many EDH lists and it's a hot candidate for unban at least considering the debates.
At the worst, you'll sit on a set of cards you'll never play, and will forever remember to not listen to MtG community. At the best... you know, don't you?
Also, buy the duals first.
You don't need 4 trops in my opinion, 3 is plenty. Would recommend investing in other duals over goyfs though (but obviously get what you'll use most immediately).
Do you play modern? If you do, get Goyf. You will get a lot more value out of it.

You can wait on Goyf. High likelihood of reprint. 3x Trop is max for most decks, and that will cover a wide range of bases.
Duals are always good investments.
I think getting into Survival is fine, but you have to understand it may not be legal in legacy, ever. I bought my playset because I want to have that base covered. That's about it.
Tropicals in a heartbeat over the tarmogoyfs!

you need tropicals to cast goyfs... so finish tropicals.
i don't use either of those 2 cards often but id always favor reserve list over non reserve list.
Play 4 Card Blind!
