I was thinking about whether or not to try buying broken synths to fix - see if I learnt anything working at an electronics factory for 5 years. But its finding something that's cheap enough to make mistakes on and not rare so as it'd be a travesty if I fucked it up, but still worth doing.

I know it gets a bit of a so-so rep in some quarters but I find it hugely flexible and the extensive modulation options are perfect for getting those woozy BoC sounds. I still dream of owning a Prophet 5 one day but I'll need a lottery win for that to happen!

Good choice!
I don't think they'll be discontinuing the Prophet 8 anytime soon. It's still the only all analogue poly synth being made today. A secondhand one in good condition wouldn't be bad alternative. Dave Smith Instruments offer a lot of good support. Just make sure you get a PE (Potentiometer Edition) model. The old all-encoder ones were a bit problematic.
