Not my taste, but whatever. I'd suggest maybe breaking the boxes down so they are flat and maybe they could fit in a closet somewhere.

 

[Aranjah]

The statues are what keep me from buying some CEs, honestly. Between not having the space for them and how much they seem to drive up the price...no thanks.

ReCore is one that I really wish I could buy an "everything but the statue" edition of.

 

[Psychoward]

I've only bought 1 CE, Mads effect 3, the art book was realog small and the game sucked (well ending did anyway(

 

[friskykillface]

Can you pay my student loans OP?

Look at all that money spent on CE. How did a brand new franchise like ReCore get a CE that huge 0_o

 

[Sorcerer]

Holy shit, that Spaceship will be as old as a Model T by the time Star Citizen comes out.

There is a bragging thread for this.

 

[ebevan91]

I own exactly zero collector's editions but I wouldn't mind getting one some day. Just need to figure out which one.

 

[ginger ninja]

I bet OP says "I don't have any games to play" out loud a lot.

 

[Spasm]

Since we're on the topic of CEs, which version of Gears 4 is everyone getting? I can't decide.

 

[MidnightCowboy]

This isn't a brag thread, dude bought San Andreas and Pan on Blu Ray

It's a cry for help

 

[Menitta]

Statues are the worst type of CE. Give me an artbook and soundtrack.

Ding ding ding!

Statues just drive up the prices of CEs and only end up collecting dust.

 

[Shiggy]

I think OP is just a compulsive hoarder.

Hey OP, if you have that much extra money I have a donation PayPal account...

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Where do you hide this stuff when women are over?

Other people... Coming over?

 

[outunderthestars]

So much of the stuff pictured in the OP is going to be in a landfill within 5 years.

To each their own but I find most CE's to be really tacky.

 

[otaku-asia]

Sweet collection. I'm collecting games as well but I've pretty much stopped buying CEs a long time ago because of that reason. I actually prefer to have unified sized game cases in my shelf, it looks so much cleaner and tidier. :-D

 

[sixteen-bit]

Start a YouTube channel with that shelf as your backdrop.

Based on the large box of tissues in front of the tv,i don't think that he has alot of female visitors.

I hadn't noticed that. Damn.

 

[E92 M3]

Damn, so many haters. Keep making that bread and enjoying life, op.

On topic: I'd throw out the boxes - they truly are a waste of space. I kept the signature panels for the Witcher 3 CE, though.

 

[LOLCats]

Yep, those big ones ive passed on all of em. I just wont do it. Only one i have thats huge is skyrim.


Edit after viewing more pics.

OP clearly understands YOLO

 

[irriadin]

Aside from Halo 5, this is the largest box I have of a collectible. Worth it.

I love that Madoka figure, and I hate it too. It's beautiful and amazing to look at, but it is also HUGE and extremely difficult to place well.

 

[Goose_Se7en]

Get rid of the empty boxes OP. Just don't understand why you'd keep them, stop hoarding and throw them away.

 

[Odrion]

This is the cleanest episode of hoarders I've ever seen.

 

[Velikost]

Stealth brag thread.

First post nails it

"Guys these boxes are so big it's killing me also check out all my shit from various angles"

Congrats on the setup OP, now stop buying CEs

 

[molnizzle]

I think OP is just a compulsive hoarder.

Yeah...

 

[ForkNetwork]

I've never even owned a CE and this guy has like 32

Third World sucks yo

 

[Pops Maellard]

GAF my steam library is too big, anyone else have this problem?

 

[Memento]

LMAO

 

[Devilgunman]

Those big CE boxes are ugly as hell. Why are you keeping it? In fact, why did you keep buying ugly statues? You think they will be rare commodities in the future? They won't. These things are mass-produced as hell.

 

[Apoleptica]

The only difference between a collector and a hoarder is organization.

 

[____]

Congrats on the junk.

This caught me off guard lol.

 

[nephilimdj]

Worst thing OP will find is when he packs them away after 1-2 generations, bloody mince got into my SNES/N64 packed away box in shed.
2000 dollars of mint stuff with mice droppings over it... lost half its value if more.

 

[Delio]

Cool collection. I spy those MMPR Ranger figuarts.

 

[Obliterator]

Lots of negativity in here but that's a pretty cool collection OP.

 

[DVCY201]

Thread Backfire?

Sell your stuff. Seriously. Go through it, find games you'll never go to again and sell them

 

[GlamFM]

Stealth brag thread.

Nothing stealthy about it.... And also nothing to brag about.... IMO.

And OP, just stop ordering plastic junk and "collectors editions". Why do you even keep the boxes?

There's a fine line between being a collector and being a horder BTW.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Has the OP return?

 

[DVCY201]

Tell me about it.

All this suffering. Feel bad for me.

How many Miku's do you need? Any answer greater than 0 is wrong.

 

[RedRum]

OP. The dwelling AND the collection is amazing!

 

[Effigenius]

Since we're on the topic of CEs, which version of Gears 4 is everyone getting? I can't decide.

Standard. The dlc seems pointless.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

Those CE's are expensive but the items included don't justify the cost. Instead of buying everything that comes out put that money towards a couple of quality items from manufacturer's who take pride in their work

 

[MogCakes]

KH3 will probably be the last CE I buy. Will buy limited editions of games, but no more CEs, they just sit around doing jack squat.

 

[RootCause]

Ding ding ding!

Statues just drive up the prices of CEs and only end up collecting dust.

I'm the opposite.

I always found Artbooks, and soundtracks only to be the 2nd worst kind of CE ever. A book you'll only look at once, and a soundtrack that you'll rip, but probably never get around to listen. Still better than stickers though. Lol

 

[RedSwirl]

I don't buy those CEs at all because I don't have ANY space for those ridiculous figurines and whatnot.

Give me a nice looking steelbook with the soundtrack and I'm good.

 

[Shiggy]

Has the OP return?

Somebody call an ambulance, he might be buried beneath a bunch of boxes and crappy toys.

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

I hate statues in CE's. All I want is an artbook and soundtrack, statues just drive the price sky high.

 

[User 479360]

Do you have to keep the boxes? They're big and take up far too much space.

I don't buy CEs and rarely have in the past. I HATE steelbooks and most of the stuff you get in CEs is just dust collecting shit.

I'd rather have that money for another game or 3.

 

[Dark Ninja]

They saw you coming. How many shitty statues can you keep in one house.
