Is this LEGO minifigure a good investment?

Review for LEGO set 4521221 Gold Chrome Plated C-3PO from Brickset
For collectors only. — “10,000 of these were randomly included in star wars sets in 2007 as part of the 30th anniversary of star wars. It comes in a white poly bag with these details on it. The minifig is the usual minifig - 3 parts of the head, torso and legs, but the chrome gold plating and... More rarity has made it unique.”
