What SteelBook do you REGRET not getting?

[Wreck]

Share!

This should be about steels you had a chance to get at release, but didnt for one reason or another. It's not about a brand new collector, who wasn't around for a release just regretting that. However, you can share that you regret not getting into them earlier if you are a new collector.

Maybe you own it now, but regret passing it up at release and paying more $$$ for it later etc.

 

[whysoserious?]

[Naughtius Maximus]

Any of the Korean lot! Never get the feckin' chance to buy any! hahaha

 

[AnubisNefer]

I had 2 copies of The Raid (Play.com) on order and a couple days before the release i cancelled.

Should have never done that and i once had the chance to buy Iron Man (Futureshop release) sealed for just 50 euros but at that time i let the auction go past me.

 

[Nedan]

Ironman, from play.com, came out just when i started collecting...

 

[Naughtius Maximus]

Drive + Star Trek UK

I was new at the time Got them in the end though!

Ironman, from play.com, came out just when i started collecting...

This one. I had just gotten into the group buy forum when there was a USA only GB for it and I didn't understand how it worked.


The other is Captain America DE. I didn't have the $ at the time to order it from amazon, and I could have. Now it's practically doubled in value. boo.

You can add Tintin steelbook for same reason above

That's all for the sadness lol

Thanks to you ninjas I got all of them from you !!!

Now my only miss is Prometheus 3D Play.com or another asian release you know what to do to make me feel happy haha

 

[frankfish44]

I actually had a coule of steelbooks I sold that I regret not holding on to.
Captain America HMV
Thor HMV
Coulnt re order once sold. Had to pay a bunch for the 3D MediaMarkt Exclusives.

The Jaws JP and Bourne trilogy JP Steelbooks stayed in my cart for such a long time,then they went OOS

 

[PascalCgon]

The Raid and Taken both were out around the time I started collecting steelbooks. I didn't realise then that steelbooks could sell out before they were released so I kept putting off pre ordering The Raid until it was too late. Same as with Taken.

Fingers crossed I should have my hands on these by the end of the week.

 

[zerro0094]

SO many...
Captain America DE, had it in my amazon cart and didn't order :[... Iron man 1 and 2 (play) Thor, Terminator (Play), The Raid... and probably others. I am too tight haha

 

[stument]

Iron Man play.com...

I was away and saw it for PReorder before i went, thought o ill order when im home

Now i cant get hold of it at all

 

[darksider]

Not that I fully regret but if I had to go back, I would've went with Prometheus Taiwan and not UK version.

 

[KingLeonidas300]

Overall: Iron Man (FutureShop) and Warrior.

Most recently: Thor

I am still surprised to see how hard it is to find a copy of Warrior for sale/trade.

Cheers!

 

[fogglehorn]

Captain America and Thor. Would've made for a great complete avengers set

 

[vilhelm42]

I've only been collecting for less than a month so I've missed tons. I do regret not paying attention when the Taiwan Terminator, Captain America and Prometheus were in stock. They're all cool looking steels.

 

[Real Steel]

Haha. Didn't expect to have this thread to vent my biggest regrets.

My biggest is having seen and wanting to order 2x Play.com Oldboy when it was still available. I'm new and didn't know it's so limited. Thought it would last quite some time like most other Play.com issues.

Two other regrets are Play.com Watchmen and The Raid. Could have ordered but hesitated. Being new to steelbooks, I was just too busy ordering from all over.

 

[entreri]

As of now, FF7 Advent Children and Metropolis UK. Metropolis was already in my cart at Amazon UK, then I decided to hold off for the time being, and forgot all about it. Advent Children I distinctly remember seeing them on the shelves at local stores. Wasn't really collecting steelbooks at these times but argh!

 

[SilverBlade]

I regret not getting Iron Man or Watchmen, both from Futureshop.
