I was recently bitten by a bug to go look at amazon for a bunch of the sword and sorcery stuff for their scarred lands setting. I figured I could probably get a bunch of the old books for the setting on the cheap. From what I recall, they had some neat ideas, and it might be an interesting to read through. I picked up some of the resources that I'd never picked up previously, and was wondering if I'm missing out on anything good.
I've got Scarred Lands Campaign & gazeteers: Ghelspad and Termana, Echos of the Slarecian Legacy, relic & rituals 1&2, creature collection 1&2, divine and the defeated, wise and the wicked, hollowfaust, penumbral pentagon, Shelzar: city of sins, Hornsaw: forest of blood, Burok Torn, The faithful and the forsaken, and Calastia: throne of the black dragon
Is there anything else really good that I missed?

You seem to have most of the major ones (Campaign and Gazetter for both major continents, deities and city supplements). The others start to get into diminishing returns as they aim towards more niche topics. I would only pick them up if they were a deal.
Here is a list of products (with images and links for summary pages) for reference:

Hollowfaust was the only "Scarred Lands" product I ever purchased during the original releases for the setting. And as a result, I always regretted not buying more of the supplements for Scarn. It was an interesting world with a lot of cool ideas just begging for further development/expansion at the hands of a creative DM.
Hmmmm. I wonder whether DriveThruRPG offers any of the other books as purchasable PDFs...

I enjoyed Mithril: City of the Golem. All their city books, like Mithril and Hollowfaust, are pretty good. Dropped both into Realms easily.

Yeah, my favorites have been Hollowfaust and Burok Torn, both of which could easily fit into the realms. I also picked up the Termana regional book and it's a great resource with the Charduni and Forsaken Elves. |
