Hi guys -- I'm currently being offered a good deal on 3 promo Wurmcoil Engines and 1 regular Wurmcoil Engine. I want them mostly for my collection but I don't want to collect cards not likely to retain their value in the event I decide I am no longer interested in the cards. Any advice?

As offer is vague, so will be advice.
If it's a good deal, take it. The cards are useful for the Robot deck. As far as the eventuality of a reprint, they will likely be reprinted at some point, but you have at least a year until that happens. Modern cards will be reprinted. Everyone should keep that in mind. That said, there's no point passing up a good deal on good cards just because they'll get reprinted eventually. It could take a decade - we just don't know.

The only reason I am considering this is because of Conspiracy. With cards targeted directly for Legacy/Vintage, I am wondering if we will see reprints of cards like FoW.

Definitely not a gamble I'd be willing to take. Keep your Forces.

Lol no. Just keep it. Even if it gets reprinted in Conspiracy, you think the print runs would be significant enough to lower the price by any large margin? I highly doubt it. And it's Force; everyone and their mothers would try to get a playset.
Get rid of it if you really don't want it anymore, but not because of fear.
Reprints the one card that people point to when saying that art objectifies women.
Well done Wizards.
Liliana does not objectify women in any way at all. We have gotten to a point in our society that every single picture of a women must be objectifying a women in some negative way......blah blah blah.. That is not the case. (((Sarcasm)))Picture of a girl drinking a milk shake, must be sex related and putting women down, picture of girl sitting on a beach, picture of a girl driving a car, picture of a girl on the moon at a new space station.)))
You have a picture of an attractive strong power women who girls dress up as for anime conventions. What more do you want? The picture is fine, happy to see a reprint. Sick of of seeing people claim that everything in existence must be putting women down. Then all I have to do is replace the word "women" with anything else to get the same mentality; fish, cats, arabs, blacks, jews, men, environment, whites, chinese, old people, etc. It doesn't matter what word I put in. Stop sucking life out of everything man. That artwork of her is awesome. Stop putting stuff down man. Just stop. If the picture was really as negative as you claim she would totally nude, in a kitchen, making sandwiches and giving blow jobs. Her abilities would be horrible as well. +1 do nothing -2 do nothing -6 do nothing. Instead liliana of the veil is an amazing planeswalker comparable to jace, the mind sculpter with great art to appreciate.
My suggestion listen to some comedy radio for a while, pandora is free, youtube is free there is something out there for you. ***** go make fun of somebody. The whole world is so serious and campaigning for some cause, or someones rights, everything is a hate crime, racist, sexist. blah blah blah.
"O no mcdonalds must be slandering a hate crime against skinny people every time they make a big mac." hahaha jeeze You're just someone perpetuating another groups negative perspective that they've made you believe is correct. Look at the picture for a hour and tell me what's wrong with it? I don't see anything.
I have heard vague rumors of a moustache-dispensing vending machine in a distant laundromat, across the street from a tattoo parlor. However, this information is shaky, and time is of the essence.

I'm in no rush...was just sort of thinking out loud. I was only considering trading them in towards the last 3 dual lands I need (Taiga, Savannah, Badlands). I'll probably just hold my playset of FoWs in this case.

Those are not typically the expensive duals. I'd try to sell something other than Forces to pick those up, esp. since it sounds like you're picking them up to have, and not for a deck.

Are the scy lands expected to change much in price after rotation? A lot of them are $5ish. If the go up, are we talking a significant amount?
Lands like that always have an ability to go up. Lands like Blackcleave Cliffs or Sunpetal Grove all went up at some time during their Standard existence. I believe the Blackcleave Cliffs cycle went up to $10 while the Sunpetal Grove cycle went up to $5-10, depending on how many reprints it had (Woodland Cemetery having no reprints).
Temples will probably be used quite a bit. I could see them going to at least $10. I know many people speculating on this who pick up extras whenever they can. I personally am not doing it, but I can see regretting that in the future.

The ISD duals went to $10-15 each after the scars lands rotated. I fully expect these scry lands to go up around next fall/winter. Dual lands will be needed next standard season. Period.

I feel like Modern Masters is better than Future Sight for that. So get Modern Masters.
Concur. Modern Masters will have more quality singles.
That said, you're paying for a chance at the 'Goyf lottery. I'd strongly suggest just buying the singles instead. For the price of a sealed box, you can get quite a few quality cards, more of what you want, and less of what you don't want.

It's not a bad deal. I would personally try to get closer to $200, but they definitely won't go up and most likely will get reprinted. They could even be in MM2. Who knows?

Been Keeping my eye on Master of Waves for a while. It is almost back down to its price when it first came out and its sitting around $7 right now at SCG. What price do you guys think would be good to buy in at since it seems to be one of the more powerful cards in Theros Block
It's very possible. It is played in Modern Merfolk as a decent finisher. I think Merfolk is one of the under the radar decks.
I believe its original price was $3. I bought my playset when it was $4 and I think I was a tad late, so I would say $3 was the original price. No one considered that card when it was spoiled (obviously because Merfolk will probably never be a "thing" in Standard again, sadly).

I actually thought that card was gonna be good when I saw it spoiled, but I couldn't bring myself to pay the $6-7 each at the time, so I chose not to. And he spiked hard. Of course, he came right back down. I still think the guy has potential to grow. Idk how much though...that's the big catch.

For sure. It sees moderate play in Standard and quite a lot of play in EDH. I would hold onto any you have for the long haul as it may end up as an expensive foil in the future.
Absolutely. It's a land, it can go in any color deck, and it has a scalable effect. It'll only get better as more cards get printed. It's not quite as good as Coffers or Cradle, but it's still a very good card.

SCG has it at $50 and MCM.eu has it at 45-50 Euros. Will it rise or fall do we think?
As a rule, all cards* fall from prerelease prices. Supply is lowest and demand is pretty high.
It'll have a tough time rising from $50 - it needs to be pretty ubiquitous to do that, and I don't see every deck jamming in four copies as happens with Mutavault.

Is your goal to open them and sell/use singles, to draft them, or to put them in a closet and watch them appreciate in value?
Concur. Modern Masters will have more quality singles.

Is this a good deal? I could sell for more but I am looking to move them and I dont mind taking a little hit in the profit department.
