Oooh Mags update inbound

Will further show how much I've been neglecting steel collecting

Can't wait Mags your collection is among the tops here and is so under-appreciated

Thanks Swift - I really appreciate your insight but I also understand why... there are those that keep it narrow and hit the grails (which I am lucky to do occasionally) I have broad collecting interests which keeps my collection wide and varied but less wow factor...

But... I also have my moments and a collection of over 200 vg steels is more than enough to keep me smiling...

I have rare items in figures, steels, press kits, memorabilia, odds and sods but all of it is personal treasure to me

Wait I thought you were up to the crazy 400+ VG steels?

Or was that combined with your movie steels?

After all I'm up to 200+ and I ain't exactly on the same level lol

You actually have a lot of "wow" factor in your collection but you don't really do the best job showing it off

More detailed pictures, maybe links to all your updates or something but I know you don't care for such attention. I'm the attention whore after all

Also have you ever even posted your crouching altair? I don't think you have even though I know you have one in your upstairs bedroom no less

LOL!! You know me too well

My typo - 400 is closer although with the recent run of Fifa steels...

And, I have Altair crouching over me in the bedroom which I have never posted pics of or Ezios fury

I often think of overhauling my show off thread but you're right - it really is personal pleasure for me and the thrill of the chase but even so.. would be nice to give it the justice it deserves - it has often been hard fought and won - thanks Swifty - was a well timed boost

Haha thought so

I have maybe 2 fifa steels. I wonder how much that adds. Probably 30 - 40 at this point

Anyways yeah I need to pick up my game quite a bit

I remember you mentioned the crouching being in your bedroom watching over you as you slept but figured my previous post already had enough of a stalker feel to it

You don't need to update your intro or anything on my account. I was just trying to explain why yours doesn't get the attention it deserves

Just received my Arkham Origins "futureshop" metal pak in the mail and despite the elaborate embossing of batman on the front and back, the overall product quality is pretty shoddy.

The hinges holding the steelbook together are made of plastic and one of the hinges was already broken/cracked when I opened the metal pak ( i.e., the metal pak is being held together by the one remaining plastic latch )

Redmagster - even with your fondness of steelbook/steel case products, this may disappoint you
