What print is that Leia you guys are referring to? Adam Hughes?
I won a Leia print at CV which was an older print, but I don't know exactly who the artist is, but I know it's not Hughes...

1. Selling my entire Vintage Star Wars collection 2 years before SW sp. Editions came out, and the values skyrocketed.
2. Not paying more attention to Hot Toys and missing out on awesome figures like IM MKI and The Godfather.
3. Buying SS human characters
4. Sending back a Empire Strikes Back one sheet (movie poster) due to a slight imperfection, after only spending $125 on it.
5. Being impatient and spending (relatively) big bucks on 12" figures like Han and Taun Taun, Scout Trooper with Speeder Bike and Luke and Wampa after I could not find them at local retailers.

way to deliver a punchline 
I've only really been collecting since January but am already filled with regret...
1. Not preordering Hot Toys Spider-Man when he was like £90.
2. Not buying Temple of Doom Indy for £199 from Play.com
3. This is the worst - way back in 2007 many years before I started 'collecting', I bought a HT Leon (non-RPD) for about £120. I got worried that I'd spent too much money on him and sold him for about £100, feeling glad that I'd sold it despite accidentally breaking one of his bag straps.
And now, 4 years later...
