Greatings from Spain

Hello there everyone! It´s time to introduce myself to this community. I´ve been following this site for a long time but didn´t decide to show my little collection to you. Laziness...you know

Well, my real name is Adriano and I´m from Zaragoza but I live in Madrid actually. It´s hard to have some free time to spend in playing games being an architect but...damn, I love this hobby so I can´t wait the moment to sit in front of my pc, relax and enjoy playing them!

Here ins Spain it´s hard to obtain really cool collector and limited editions due to...no idea

Sometimes a really nice edition appears here but it´s not very common to see. The worst thing here is that every game is so expensive that is ridiculous compared with other countries.

Talking about collector editions, I started collecting them a few years ago with my girlfriend but couldn´t spend all the money I wanted on them. But well, it´s never too late to start collecting them! I must add that we collect figurines and books related to our favourite games so more money to spend.

What I seek in a good collector edition is a really nice artbook packaged in a well made and hard box. If it has a high cuality figurine, better!

My favourite genre? Obviously rpg. I started with Baldur´s Gate and since then I never stopped playing them. Favourite games? Baldur´s Gate and Morrowind, pure love!

My main targets now are the Wood Limited Edition from Baldur´s Gate II (wood box with dagger and a bag, I had it on my hands but I was too young to buy it, didn´t have enough money then), Morrowind Collector Edition (the dark brown one with Ordinator figurine) and the hardest one...Mass Effect 1 PC Collector Edition, released in Polland by CDProjekt.

Well, these are some pics. I know it´s not a huge collection like Foreverflash collection (simply amazing, I felt like a begginer when I saw your collection) but I like it

It´s not the complete collection because my girlfriend has some of them (she lives in Barcelona right now due to her job) so I couldn´t take photos to them. I have more boxes in Portugal (my mother is portuguese

) so I´ll update this thread when I can!

Welcome to the forum, loving the pictures.

Some real gems there aswell, didn't even know about the Armachan Report for F.E.A.R.

Adriano, man, you're simply my soulmate! Baldur's Gate series and Morrowind (plus some another RPG's) are my favourite games of all time as well! Morrowind Collector's Edition is also my aim, but it's really expensive one!

Never heard about this Wooden Baldur's Gate Edition, do you have some pictures, please?

I really like your Dragon Age : Origins Collector's Edition and Dungeon Siege 2 Deluxee Edition, these are on my wishlist as well.

I understand your dissapointment with CE's and games prices in general. In Czech Republic, they are also ridiculously expensive as compared with average salaries etc.

Welcome and enjoy your stay here! I'm really looking forward to see more pictures of your collection because it seems that you have very similar tastes as me.

P.S. Actually, my brother-in-law is from Barcelona, but he lives in Czech Republic.

I thought the same when I took a look at yours. Oh...and what about those Witcher beauties (not Triss ones haha

). Just awesome.

About Baldur´s Gate II, well, an image is better than a thousand words. Be careful or you´ll drop off your jaw

Well, time to show you more images. Now it´s the time for some big and heavy editions!

Very nice pics! Your photo taking skills are great too, those pics look very professional

I must agree with Lemur, gorgeous pictures, how you doing them?

This Baldur's Gate 2 Edition is absolutly awesome - must have. I have only big box version with small map, a reference card and really thick manual.

I love your Heroes Complete Edition, this one I really want so much! Unfortunately it's quite rare and also quite expensive on Ebay. Maybe someday, I will get my hands this beatiful edition.

Also really nice MMORPG CE's. In my opinion MMORPG's always have really huge, well made and nice CE's.
