Hi everyone. Since it's been ages i thought it would be wise to update my thread with all the new items ive got.

First of all if people still don't know me i'm meg, although other members call me be other names :wave: I'm 21 years old, (22 in a few weeks) and primarily collect assassins creed promo items. The other 2 franchises i follow are dishonored and watch dogs, but i also have several rayman items and anything that looks shiny to be honest. I used to also collect fallout merch and marvel steelbooks but in the end decided to sell them all and just focus on the 3 series above. Aside from that i'm obsessed with halloween, horror films and good rock and metal music. I also like a drink or two, if you've ever looked in the random thoughts thread... :bananayes:

Because a lot of people already have the basic collectors editions i'm not gonna post all the items i have, though the list is currently:

CE
AC I CE and USA CE
AC II black and white CE's
AC Brohood codex edition and harlequin edition
AC revelations CE and limited edition
AC III CE, join or die edition, ubiworkshop edition, USA edition
AC anthology
Rayman origins and prototype II CE
Fallout 3 and new vegas CE's

BOOKS
The art of AC and official guide double edition
AC II, brohood, revelations and III collectors guides
The art of AC III collectors edition
Fallout 3 GOTY edition guide
Dishonored, prototype I and II guides
Prototype art book
E3 AC encyclopedia

Figures
AC bobbleheads
AC III conor the hunter
AC brohood and revelations statues
AC hidden blade (neca)
AC connor bust
AC flying machine

Others
AC IV promo maps (missing trove of mystery)
AC xbox faceplates
Ubiworkshop notebook
Bethesda speakers
dishonored promo bag

(I need a better phone)

Finally, a current list of what i'm looking for, in case any of you lovely people want to help :v:

AC connor bank
AC revelations leave your legacy coin
AC III notebook and pen
AC IV pocket watch
Remaining dishonored masks (overseer and party guest)
Dishonored press kit

I loved ac 3 :thumb: i loved the design and the plot, though i didnt like the mass of quick time events. I hate that people say connor was a bland/boring character, i prefer him to ezio. The only thing i didnt like was the modern day part of the game, it should have been longer. We finally got to play as desmond for it to end like that :/ (although i still think watch dogs is a modern day version) I wasnt a fan of the dlc though, i felt that after all the effort ubi made into portraying realistic tribes etc they just went and made him a stereotypical portrayal. What did you think?

Also do you know what the official name for the cardboard steelbook is? ive been trying to find what its officially called for a while

I think you will do very well to find a ACR saga box as there only 4 in the hands of collectors
I loved the DLC as it was something new, and I liked how they had a different take on everything. It helped keep it fresh and playing that was the most fun I remember having in AC single player ever using the cloak to kill people :)
I agree I thought at least a third of the game (5 hours plus) would have been played as Desmond, and the lake of canoes /kayaks was pretty much the only disappointments to me
I agree watchdogs looks like ACV/VI
I also don't get why people say that want new games like old games when they can just replay the old games
I likes how Connor was a fresh new character, although I saw a few things they could have expanded on but did not, but the longer i Leave it between playing it the more I forget what I didn't like and just remember what I liked and its the same for everyone and that's why people love Altair even though the game was so relative (on purpose)
And people love Ezio even though when revelations came out most people where like OMG another game with the same character bit now most people remember AC2BR as one game and that's why they love Ezio

I agree with everything you said... but...how didn't you mention the naval battles? Although the naval missions were too easy (expecially with full upgrades) that's the part of the game i mostly loved... like the final Cheaspeake Bay battle, that was just epic.

I missed off one of my fav parts of the game lol i knew i'd love the missions as soon as haythem stepped onto the deck and you saw the detail of the ocean! i loved the Cheaspeake Bay battle, though i agree they were easy. I suppose it was so they could test the reaction of the gameplay and then go suprise! in coming pirate game. I also loved the hunting aspect, the amount of times bob cats creeped up on me :hammer:

Gotta love being a girl ;) yes, most of my collection was found on ebay, especially in bundle sales, thats how i found my saga box :)

Short update in that i finally caved and bought the ac anthology for xbox, the replica tomahawk and inflatable PAX sword. I also preordered the AC IV artbook, which finally has a front cover image, although i suspect they will also release a limited edition version to take even more of my money.
