NotAFoxAnymore Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Hhhh so many cool collectors editions being announced today ;u; certainly not worth £130 though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFinalEmblem Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Looking at this, it is certainly not worth $200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheYuriG Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 The 'toy' and the steelbook are awesome, but I could easily skip everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slipknot_rooney Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I just want the steel book. The other stuff is cool but I wouldn't pay what they are asking for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihiris- Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) EA CEO: "Guys, guys, we need to boost up the price a bit more, what can we put in it?" EA Assistant: "Uhhhh tattoos and make sure one looks like a Mirror's Edge condom...?" EA CEO: "BRILLIANT!"

LastPisTolman Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Ubisoft CEO: "Guys, guys, we need to boost up the price a bit more, what can we put in it?" Ubi Assistant: "Uhhhh tattoos and make sure one looks like a Mirror's Edge condom...?" Ubisoft CEO: "BRILLIANT!" Why are Ubisoft personnel having meetings about collector's editions for EA games? What looks like a condom? I like the artistic quality to the statue, makes a nice change from the common action hero pose that is normally front and centre, it looks more like it would have a place outside of the gamestation and would fit in quite well amongst the general living area items. Temporary tattoos and stickers have always struck me as an odd thing in a collector's edition. Ostensibly you are a collector if you buying such an edition, and actually using these items are the antithesis of a collector. So something designed as a temporary thing is made knowing it will never fulfil its purpose. That is the pinnacle of western development for us. Maybe this is deliberate as a commentary on the fascism Faith faces in the game? Edited July 9, 2015 by LastPisTolman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nihiris- Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I was more than happy to buy it then I saw the price... Yeah if they just offered the game and statue for like $100, I'd already have it preordered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venocide Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 It's a cool statue, not worth £130 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acedragons Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Man as a person who loves collectibles and video games they are starting to get a little crazy. $200 bucks on a normal salary person like mes income is just a little to steep, especially considering the box and statue are all I really want. I think that I will be skipping this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCuervo88 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I'll definitely preorder this..... in other news I'm setting up a donation fund for $200.... for.... other reasons..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aviditas90 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Maybe one of the first real ce's that i'll buy. I'm usually just collecting steelbooks but i just fel in love with that statue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im2Fast_4U Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 This is a beautiful piece any collector or fan of the original game would want. I certainly want it. However, this is beyond overpriced. It's off the deep end. Look at The Order: 1886. That collector's edition, that came with steelbook and statue cost $80. Okay. This has a really nice box, yes, and a very nice statue. Steelbook. Similar contents all around. And it costs $200. You know what else costs $200? The Juggernog edition for Black Ops 3. That comes with a mini fridge. A mini fridge. That is well worth it. But this, no. Because of the nicer seeming quality, I could understand a $100 or even a $120 pricetag and I'd have mine pre-ordered... but at this price? There's no way. It's just not a collector's edition that is worth $200. Or in other words, it's not a figure and box I can see spending $140 extra on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karcci Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 That statue and steel book are soooo awesome, but seriously $200? And not even considering to preorder from EA, no offence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xZoneHunter Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 It's even more of a rip-off that it'll cost 200€ down here in europe. Which is 220$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeyondofRain Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) I've been a fan of Mirror's Edge in general since ever I played the first one all the way back in 2008, now I've been waiting 8 damn straight years. Finally we get Mirror's Edge Catalyst the next chapter, and look what do I have to see now we got a collector's edition? Wow increadible. I love this Steelbook looks very nice. Its wroth it but the price is kinda to much tho, anyway thx for this information ShadowStar83x! Edited February 24, 2016 by BeyondofRain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
