For just the five WS slipcovers I spent NZ$87 and I bought a copy of the US version with the 3D disc by itself for NZ$15 because I clearly have no self-control, so that's a total of over $100 just for slipcovers and one copy of the movie. For TWS in total I've spent $468 and my MCU collection overall is at about $1400 (that's including the films, 2 seasons of AoS and one of Agent Carter). Ok I wish I hadn't looked now, lol.

Yeah, it really depends on what kind of upgrade the 4K releases bring, if anything. Bare minimum would be the Cap films and the first Avengers still though, because they're my absolute favourites and as you can see above, I have no self-control when it comes to Cap especially.

That would make sense if things cost so much because we import them from Aussie. I have seen Hot Toys much cheaper online in various places including eBay, but I've never bought them because it'll just be another Funko Pops situation where I go crazy, and I need to not do that.

Nice Star Wars collection, and I like the sound of the ones you have on order as well. I've seen glamour shots of the Kylo Ren one online and didn't notice that it shows his face under the mask, but that would've been cool as well. And it's a pity Captain Phasma was too much because her one looks freaking amazing. I have the 3.75" and 12" toys of her since I'd never buy the Hot Toys one, so they'll have to do.

Bloopers are the best, especially with this cast since we know them so well, so it's fun to watch them mess up and having a good time. Especially during the serious scenes:



I'm bummed The Force Awakens didn't get one, that would've been hilarious.

And I'm torn between being sad you didn't get the CW BD yet because then you could post pics of the steelbook, and happy because I'd be super jealous of you until I get my copy on Wednesday.

Really don't want to do a tally of all my blu-rays, again, we have a joint collection in this household and have 5 ikea cabinets (with extension units on top) filled top to bottom. We've actually just had to buy another one because we're running out of space. Suffice to say, my "collection" listed on my account here only covers a small selection of the collection.

Star Wars and Wizard of Oz and Disney have been the big cash-cows for me. Multiple copies of the trilogies, about 11 copies of Wizard of Oz... But they all offer something different and, like you, I look at it as buying collectibles instead of buying the movie over and over again.

Yeah, the Kylo Hot Toy has no face sculpt, just a mask. A little annoying, because the upcoming 1/4 scale has a face. But, I don't think I'd ever display him out of the mask, so it doesn't bother me too much. Phasma, I believe, is also a little off-scale (she's about the size of a Stormtroopeer from what I've seen), so that would be a killer for my OCD.

HAHAHA, well, just keep that jealousy reserved for tomorrow morning when I (hopefully) walk away from JB with the steelbook in hand

Damn, that's a lot of blus. I only have the ones listed in my profile, I went mad with DVDs and barely watched them, so I'm trying to avoid that with BDs.

At least those two ones you collect get different extras, it feels like it's worse I spend so much on MCU films because all the extras are exactly the same (and not a lot to start with, unfortunately).

Oh I will.

It's so unfair. We got the movie released a week late and now they (will probably) get the blu-ray early as well. Australia sucks!
