FFG GW Breakup FOMO - 1 Year Later

I bought Space Hulk Death Angel and two of its expansions.
$24 for the base game and its on Amazon now for $44.
$11 for the Tyranid expansion selling for $28 on eBay.
$4.50 for Mission Pack 1 expansion selling for $44 on eBay.
So I spent like $40 and it would cost me at least $116 if I wanted to buy it today. I've still never played my copy but it has such a small footprint that as long as I can get my $40 back someday I'm in not hurry to get rid of it.
That was my only FOMO game. I already owned Fury of Dracula 3rd or I would have bought that.

You should play Death Angel sometime soon. It's a great game, and you got the two best expansions. Plays just fine solitaire, and also scales nicely for up to six players.

I already had many of the FFG/GW base games. The only other things I wish I had picked up were the Blood Bowl Team Manager and Diskwars expansions, but since those are both simple, light games that don't come out super often I'm not that upset about it. Certainly not enough to pay the prices I've seen.

For FFG/GW games, I have Talisman (+Reaper), Warhammer Quest TACG, Warhammer Conquest. Was sorely tempted by Forbidden Stars, but the game is kinda lopsided, with battles being quite involving, and everything else simpler. Runewars's combat probably the most involving system I care to play, and it was balanced by the other aspects of the game.

I didn't participate in the Fear.
Since I permitted it pass over me and through me. And when it was past. I looked behind me to see it path.
Where the fear went, there was nothing. Only better board games remained.

A picked up the two expansions for Blood Bowl: Team Manager. Which are fun enough, as is Blood Bowl: Team Manager. The trouble is that when you've got over 100 games sitting in the house and reviews to write every week, fun enough isn't fun enough. So they got played a handful of times and now I've forgotten how to play.
I also bought Warhammer: Diskwars and both expansions, all of which are still in shrink.
Nothing that I bought has accrued any value for being OOP.

Yeah it does

I bought the last of the Talisman expansions I had missed, and boy did that pay off. Those later ones, Cataclysm notwithstanding, are some of the most valuable. The POD clamshells are obnoxiously valuable given that they are like a handful of cards and a rule sheet. My Talisman cash-in was about $650, so I am tempted to say that is the big jackpot item. However, I think that value is going to plummet when GW concretely reveals that their edition is the same as FFG's.
I also got the WHQACG expansions and Death Angel expansions from F:ATties...and Fury of Dracula I picked up at retail. Forbidden Stars I found at my FLGS, weirdly underpriced at $65. I really thought that was going to be one of the big ticket items, but I guess that is not the case.
I traded something for CITOW with Shadow of the Horned Rat RIGHT before the announcement, and I think I would up with double the value of what I traded out for it.
Diskwars I traded for...but it has sat unplayed. That game is just doomed to be forgotten.
I regret none of it, it was fun and exciting trying to round up all of this stuff.

FFG is riding the Star Wars Express these days, but it just isn't as good a fit.
