Here's your dedicated thread to theorize and speculate about 2012 releases and their value at the end of 2012. Have fun!

Please post the title and the price you think it will be by 12/31/2012. 7+ months to discuss.

:D

A reminder to keep the comments civil and friendly everyone

I understand there is going to be differences of opinion in a thread like this, and the merits or fallacies of certain choices are free to be discussed, but if the posts start deteriorating into personal attacks, that won't be tolerated

In reference to the topic, I'll choose Rio (if it does release in 2012 :rolleyes:)

Amen to that! I feel the last couple of posts are trying to start this thread to something negative, I'll let it slide. BTW, I could of swore that this thread was originally called "which SB released in 2012 will rise to $100 by year end" Now its got a different title hhmmm. No matter, "which steelbook released in 2012 will rise most by the end of 2012"?............RE Quad. You heard it here. Hopefully there will be no more title changes.

About the thread title specifically, it has not changed since the first day of the thread. At the bottom of the OP, you can see the date of the last edit made to the OP, which for this thread is the same day it was made.

Hey Mate, based on your views I have ordered RE Quad. So...I am rooting for your view. However, I still doubt that Quad will come up on top. :D

Have a little faith. You've seen the collection I built. It was all based on the observations and predictions, just like this. Besides, I think hitting the $100 mark is way more important in determining what will be a grail, rather than a $20 steel jumping to $40 by year end.

You are persuasive, mate. Let's hope you are right!
 
My prediciton for December :

Zombieland (German): continue to rise.
200/230$

Thor : continue to rise but slowly...
160$

Real Steel Blufans with coin (China) :
200/220$

War Of The Arrows (Korea) : When it will be OOS, I think that it going to begin going up...
100/150$

Conan 3D Fnac (France) : 120/150$

Faster (German) : rise slowly...because it's a very nice German steelbook, OOP, only German trade...same like Zombieland.
100/120$

Senna (Australian) : When it will be OOS, I think that it going to begin going up...
100/120€

:)
 
I think that this thread should get back on topic....its very useful and i think fun to discuss your new steels and your opinion of where the value is going....If it could go back to that and continue to be useful i think every member will benefit...
 
I think that Vivas are going to gain in popularity this year. Especially with the great Disney releases from FS, and the Blufans exclusive Real Steel.

Here are my picks to gain momentum before the year is over:-

John Carter (VMB) FS Exclusive
Real Steel (VMB) Blufans Exclusive

I love the RS blufans release but john carter is not getting a sequel and may fall off due to low popularity...I do love the viva cases though
 
I believe the girl with dragon tattoo will rise up quickly :) the Japanese one that is, and hopefully dark knight Japan will sell out soon as I have a few :hilarious:

I agree with Dragon Tattoo, has been sold for nearly $300 and cost $120 to import to the UK including customs and tax. I say this and Thor will be the steelz that will increase most in value a long with Play.com Iron Man.

-Tattoo JPN, cost $120 to obtain to the UK, sold for $287. Increase $167.

-Thor has now had BIN price of £75, bids nearly £70. The steel cost £20.Increase of £55.

-Iron Man play.com has bids over £40 and BIN prices of £50. The steel cost £11. Increase of nearly £40.And we are still a month away until release date.

- In regards RE Quad@stevo, RE Quad has bids upto £66. The steel cost £55 to obtain. Increase of £11.

There are the figures stevo work it out.

Do you think that because the sequel to dragon is unlikely that the value could be hurt by that...I have seen that steel skyrocket though as well as thor
 
My picks

I actually don't even think that the black suit KB is limited at all - it is just not available online. It is still available in the same German supermarkets as before (for 19,99€) and it keeps being back in stock. The prices for it on ebay.co.uk are now down to 25 UKP pretty much every time...

Res Evil Quadrilogy hasn't gained value at all from what I can see. It is still available on amazon.de for the same price as always and media-dealer had it for 55€ recently. If they did 4000 of these (which I assume), they will have a hard time getting rid of these for 67€... I expect this one to only sell out if the price eventually drops to 39€ or so!

It is amazing to see that demand for the trilogies is higher still - both German and Korean version are much more beautiful!!

My picks for end of 2012

Iron Man play (d'uh) ;)
Farewell my Concubine (d'uh²) ;);)
Complete Matrix Trilogy (if not back in stock or rereleased)
Immortals (FS)
Act of Valor


I could see this. Not sure how valuable it is but it seems to be pretty hard to find.
