Thanks Dan it's been a while coming so unlikely I'll have an update of this size again at least not in the near future

Yep the EA Pin Set is quite nice although I would've liked the cardboard insert but what can you do?

The Tomb Raider art is wonderful. Honestly some of the other lithos I got really didn't impress me, just felt like a big digital photo (which it is) but not art, not something truly beautiful. The tomb raider art though makes me glad I started collecting art.

It's also worth noting the TR giclees that I thought would be my favorite aren't. Ascension and Tomb Raider are nice pieces but the color palettes on some of the less popular works are so mesmerizing in person

Hmm probably no on the ACR poster but yes on the ACIII promo lol

That ACR poster was from like January or something and was among the worst listed items I have ever seen

I think it was listed as assassin's creed under video games not video game merchandising lol

No idea how I stumbled on it but got it for less than 10 USD shipped which is a fine price

About the ACIII promo I believe the seller sold 2 or 3 copies at least so i did get one luckily and it was fairly cheap if I remember correctly

Thanks mortal

Means a lot coming from you

I sometimes wonder how many VG art pieces you must have lying around

Your collection inspired me to start collecting art a little more seriously so thanks for that

Thanks buddy

Anyways

Had to retake those deleted photos as I mentioned before

Here you go

Lost Update Part I: Steelbooks & Promo Items

G2 steelbooks



So now I have both an unsealed and a sealed the Last of US steels

Sealed G2 Vanquish





Forgot to include in the other pic

Comparison shots of Crysis 3 G2 archers

Top is the European G2, bottom is the mexican G2



So I was looking at the two up close and it was driving me mad but I swear the archers were different sizes. The heads just didn't look the same size to me so I broke out the measuring tape (no ruler or digital caliper here ) and sure enough the European G2 is about an half an inch taller/higher so the images are clearly scaled differently



Measuring tape was overkill I know

G1 Steelbooks



Already had the target tomb raider steel but getting the sealed Futureshop version was nice

Promo Items



Lighter is the Dead Island Riptide lighter from Europe. Key is the Dead Island 1 key/keychain from SDCC. For Americans the PS2 promo is Bully.

The naruto art book is actually quite nice and in complete english even though it originated from Germany. Got it free along with the sealed London steel




Assassin's Creed Promo Items



The Castaway's Prize Treasure Map


Thanks to Cosmic for this one, cheers buddy!




Comparison with Pride of the West Indies Map




Close-Ups of the nice ACIII Pamphlet





















Close-ups of wierd official ACB pamphlet







Rockstar Promo stuff & Sealed EA Pins

[SwiftDeath]

Lost Update Part II: Polish Mass Effect CE

So I may have gone a little overboard on the pics for this one.....



A crease in the outer box which sucks but price was more than fair for it

Really love the outer box too so pretty













A selection of interior photos. Should've just done all of them lol








This one's for you Ras!

























Keyboard Shortcuts Guide (Karta Pomocy Podrecznej)



Interior shot of the mini guide (Poradnik)



Close-up of postcards

[SwiftDeath]

Lost Update Part III: Other Collector Editions, Art, AC Books
















Some more statue comparision shots













Suprised to find that this CE was actually quite well made no matter how common it is. Hard plastic for the black case and nice packaging

Far Cry 3 Vaas Poster, Map, and Hunting Guide











Great poster to bad it was folded when given out




Naruto Broken Bonds Art Cards/set


This and Naruto Rise of a Ninja were my favorite Naruto games. Ubisoft did well with them imo
















Fallout 3 The Monument




Oblivion The Gates of Oblivion



A real beautiful piece in person

AC 1 Encyclopedia & Guide book









Can you guess which one of the above I like the best?

Also got these below as I like the movie/tv shows but not sure if I'll keep

Spoiler!
