18 inch figure and an artbook.... now that's a good CE.
xbone exclusive though..... rejoice ! xbone preorderers!

[blingaling]

Not quite xbox one exclusive, 360 and PC versions are also available.

If the statue looks anywhere near that good $250 is a great price.

Available for 3 launch platforms (XB1, X360, and PC)

There will certainly be less XB1 made versus the other two considering the install bases so the XB1 version will likely be "rarer"

Not quite xbox one exclusive, 360 and PC versions are also available.

Dang it bling I go to all the trouble of screencapping and uploading it and you beat me to it :P

[SwiftDeath]

Thought it's worth mentioning this


Important Shipping Information:

Your game will arrive separately from your box of goodies. The goods will ship by ground in advance of the game's release, regardless of which shipping option you choose. All games will ship the day before release date (March 11, 2014 in North America and beginning March 13, 2014 in Europe). Selecting overnight shipping means you should get your game on release date, but your box will still ship by ground (since it ships early though, there's a really good chance you get the stuff ahead of the release date). Beaming the whole thing to you from space on demand ended up involving a staggering amount of red tape, so we had to scale back a bit and make do with regular shipping channels.


So like how the Dead Space 3 Dev Edition was done

[Ayiu]

Since the statue is numbered I really would like to know how much of them will be produced :think:

[Letrico]

I don't understand why are they allowed to mark up price according to country while selling and dispatching from US. The only reason it is 150 more expensive in Australia is tax plus shipping but I'm willing to bet I have to add another 100-200 for shipping.

Outrageous

You know Letrico you make salient points that should be discussed and I agree the pricing is atrocious especially if it's all coming from the same warehouse or group of warehouses

But I always think of you like your avatar

Haha I'm too adorable for serious discussion. This issue was always debated here since we get 1.5x mark up price while the retailers blame it on Australian GST and RRP by vendor.

In this case it looks like the vendor is EA and respawn and I don't see any reason for the mark up since it is goods not sold in Australia and I should not be paying local tax its illegal.

Same goes to the euro and pound price. How could they add VAT into the price when they are actually just importing goods. Members from UK will get slapped another 50-100 import fee on top of an item that they have already paid VAT and import duties as that is what local price includes.

Edit eh I missed one thing. It will be available from retailers as well. Price from retailers I understand but not their price for international order from their own website

[LyricalOne]

Meh, that price.

But dang that statue, it's very tempting.

As for international friend, I would offer to help you out since $250 beats 299eur/299gbp but shipping alone will probably be like 120 <_< if not more

Wait so if you buy from the website and can it shipped to you it's the US price?

Other prices are for localized retailers? Like EBgames Australia for example?

That makes it sound a hell of a lot less limited

[DJDREAM]

i think if some friend in the USA helps us, it would be much cheaper! I looked for shippment by DHL to US would be cost 90 euro for up to 31 KG or 62 Pounds.

If you pay as US Citizen 280 US Dollars (199 Euro) incl. shippment.

if we send with a amount of 30 KG 3 or 4 Titanfall CEs to Europe!

We would pay 230 - 240 Euro per CE + 20 Euro shippment inside of Europe!

The Game you can use because its Region free!

[Dreamcazman]

I wasn't really interested in the game due to being multiplayer only. After seeing the $400 local price tag, I want the game even less now... :(

[blingaling]

Yep, game itself is not really my thing. But that statue... I'm a sucker for them!

[toxicatom5]

Up at Amazon and GameStop now...

I tried to purchase from the website it was just showing $100 price and "Domestic Shipping" of $0. I assume they don't know the shipping price yet and it will be added at later date. However from the fine print they said that "For international customers, local price will be charged" or something like that. I will assume they will change the price on order. I'm quite confused really.

EBGames AU announced that they will be selling it and it will be STRICTLY LIMITED and will be an online only order next Wednesday.

But the price will seriously pissing me off if titanfall store converts the order to AUD for last payment.

Maybe Treehouse Ryan can give more details? It seems like distribution is handled by Treehouse

That seems like an asinine and entirely roundabout way to handle it

[Madigan]

I don't get it, why not limit the pre order to US buyers and call it a day?

They can't sell it in us dollars (cheaper) when you have an official regional price. There's no point for EBGames to sell this in AUS when you can get it cheaper on the official store.

That's my guess.

[Christown]

$400 AUD, Dafuq? nty.

[Tejstar]

GAME (http://www.game.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/HubArticleView?hubId=257753&articleId=257754&catalogId=10201&langId=44&storeId=10151&cm_sp=home-_-banner-_-titanfallannouncement) has got this as an exclusive in the UK for GBP249.99.

A lot of money, but pre-ordered anyway. Will decide later whether I can justify the cost or not...

[narg]

whoa, 6m long poster! i like it

btw I am really interested in this, but I want find someone, who will be willing resend this from usa to europe (czech rep. ) and send it as gift with <$20 shipping price tag due hight import taxes and customs :/

Price in dolar for us, and price for europe in eur make almost 166$ difference, and i dont think that shipping price will be that high, but maybe i am wrong, i dont know, how much weight it will have.

[LukeyBaby93]

Been looking at this since yesterday, The Price tag is a little high for my liking. I don't mind paying the 250 GBP but there are a lot of games coming out in that time period.

Hopefully there will still be some XB1 versions available after christmas.

[Lemur]

Individually numbered from 1-10000000? :lmao:

[LyricalOne]

Oh if it really is that big, then shipping will be over that easily.

I can tell you that it was about $88 roughly for a decently packaged Saints Row 4 GoTG ed.

Now just with that statue, this CE should be at least double that in weight, and if regular Postal service can't do it, since it would be over their limit, then it's going to be UPS or Fedex, which can easily be $200+

[Saturn]

And here is the moment I will stop collecting for newer systems. 300 euros. This is not a value most people in many countries can pay.

[Letrico]

But it seems solid for CE of one of the most anticipated game. Sadly it is multiplayer only. I think someone mentioned before but I'm afraid it will be like Brink. I had high hopes for that game and it literally died in the first week of release.

They seems to be implying that the game will be separate from the statue so I am expecting something like Kingdom Of Amalur with statue on a box and the rest in another box.

You got a point with bring, I give it few hours, but quit and never come back, boring and nothink new, but here I HOPE will be all different, but CE fir this is "little out of normal space" for normal collectors :/

[CHUNKU]

i have a feeling that the figure is being made by First4Figures, they made the Alkatraz figure from the Crysis2 Nano Edition and also everything they make is individually numbered and hand made so it fits the description pretty well.

[Letrico]

Good news for AU peeps. Amazon orders are now shipping to Australia and it only cost 266 USD :)

[Dreamcazman]

Yeah, made a preorder this morning (forgot to post discovery here, sorry :D), with priority shipping, comes in at $275. Helluva lot better than $400!

Don't know if I'll keep it yet, got a few months to decide.

[Mikle39]

Hey guys

I just pre-oder it on Amazon.com with shipping cost to Russia for Total $278.47 ))

I also calculate shipping to my second address in Berlin. It about $295....Because a fee

[narg]

About 320$ to czech republic, 15$ shipping and 50$ import fee, WTF

[narg]

But even with price 320$ is about 100$ save from price in europe with 300eur price tag

there are a few rare ones but mostly for older games. At the moment I can only think of the AC I book set which came with the guide and an artbook and the Fallout 3 Game of the Year collector's edition guide. There are also several paperpack guides from prima which are quite hard to find.

[KnightOfTruth]

Great to get a good look at it, but they STILL have not said what the "very limited run" # is? He even said "they're individually numbered" but then didn't show a number on it? I paused it at different points and didn't see anything that remotely looked like a print number... Why won't they just say what the # is?

[Letrico]

Probably end up in a very big number like CoD prestiges.
