Metal Gear Solid V: Phantom Pain - Collector's Edition

[patcrazystar64]

http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/stg.ign.com/2015/03/mgsCE.jpg

Since the front of the steelbook is the cover art for Ground Zeroes; and the spine also just says MSGV. I'm assuming the steelbook has the space for both games. MSRP is $100 for the edition.

Definetely getting this CE !! Thanks for sharing :)

Are there any differences between the US and EU Collectors Edition ??

[patcrazystar64]

It was only just announced via IGN. Once pre-orders go live, I'll update the thread with NTSC and Pal differences.

^ it's live on http://www.game.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/HubArticleView?hubId=287852&articleId=287853&catalogId=10201&langId=44&storeId=10151&cm_re=home-_-banner-_-MetalGearSolidV

[Gazereths]

sweet, just ordered. Got two just in case :P

[Raven]

sweet, just ordered. Got two just in case :P

I went with one with game and probably order the premium package when it's live

Only difference I see is the arm replica (full size cf 24 cm), artbook (west has none), and special case which can house GZ - game - extra bonus blu-ray (west has steel book). Only comparing physical items but guessing probably cost like at least £180 including delivery or £200 including customs if caught but GBP to yen pretty low at the moment so so be cheaper soon!

[singer07]

I need the terminator arm! Im gonna throw it in the molten steel vat when i get it.

[lixrice]

when can i preorder this on amazon?

[Twisted]

i hope there is a steelbook only version as well..i can do without that plastic arm, probably be all plastickity like the metal gear rising lamp for the US market.

[rapister]

the steel better be the same for both US and Japan!

[Interinactive]

$100 in the US

$250 in Australia

Fucking scumbags.

[MadMan5]

$100 in the US

$250 in Australia

Fucking scumbags.
If I was on twitter I would have to ask EB how they came to this price when it's $99 in the US. I'm not sure what they are paying a unit ($50 AUD or less) but adding $120 on top is a piss take.

[Dreamcazman]

What a load of horseshit!

I would've expected around $170, no way am I paying $250. :rant:

Only question now is, where to import from?

At the moment Amazon US has a lock out on shipping MGSV (might change) over seas and if the price is 100 sods on Amazon UK with postage works out $220 AUD maybe and two weeks to turn up.

Anyone got a link to UK Amazon page? Can't find it for some reason

[Dreamcazman]

Amazon UK won't have it as it's a GAME exclusive. :-/

I might get the Jap premium pack if it's not crazy money. Shipping from Japan is quite expensive though and if you use a forwarding service they'll add their mark up to. Maybe if it's up on play Asia for reasonable money I'll grab one./

its up on play-asia.com , tried to preorder it but it was 500$ plus 130$ shipping to poland plus custom taxes and once you made your preorder it cannot be canceled. . motherfuckers:nono:

[huntrodz]

What is the difference between the 2 editions? Is it just the packing and the Arm?
I've pre ordered from game, but I'd like to see some more Info before I decide to keep it.

[Nachtfalke]

Damn, I need both console and arm replica. That's so cool for handling the controller. :D

[KnightOfTruth]

Two things worth noting:

1) The arm sizes appear different in Japan vs. the US. I guess there's a 1:1 Scale arm available in Japan which costs quite a bit more. The smaller one is what you get in the CE.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B_VbQZEUYAMa53Z.jpg

and

2) The "Premium" version (1:1 scale) is now available in Japan at the Konamistyle site (http://www.konamistyle.jp/item/73064)

Hoooolllddddd on a ducking minute

I believe Japan is a 1.1 replica but there is no way the other is half that

It's like a baby's arm

[Gazereths]

24cm so that pics about right I think. That play Asia price........Dayum........prices me outta the market that's for sure. Konami style is a shade under 30,000 yen if I'm reading it right, about £170/$260.

[xhunter]

I wish they would hurry up and put this on Amazon in the US. Getting impatient and worried I'll miss out

As I have said before GameStop and Amazon between them control 70% of the games CE market share.

When the price was told to the public specialy the US CE for $99 is a good price but I think most retailers would have sold it for $150+ USD if it was not told.

There are many questions behind closed doors on why the CE is not on sale in the US yet and greed is at the top of my list.

[patcrazystar64]

Still waiting for US... updated op with international pre-order links.

[MadMan5]

I have a question on the MotherBase staff and Snake GZ Costume.

A: Got MGGZ UK version.
B: If I get US CE version I know DLC is locked on PS4 but will the save data unlock the data transfer? Me thinks it will not work...

[Gazereths]

The days of region locking any content should be long past imho. But I wouldn't bet on being able to unlock the U.S. DLC in the UK.

If the UK one sells out ive got a spare pre order btw.

Australia hasn't announced which model of the collectors edition they are selling yet last time I looked. If its the Japanese model $250 is more then fair, the US model has a miniature model of the hand, Japan apparently is getting a to scale replica

Just a heads up. The Collector's Edition of Metal Gear Solid V has gone up on Amazon.com. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UFOYR2I/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
$99 USD as expected. $125.47 USD with fastest possible shipping. For me in Australia, that equals $162.81 AUD. Far cry from $249.95 AUD EB Games wants to rip out of my wallet.

Do they charge after placing an order or right before the shipment?

[Hauser57]

After the order is shipped they finalize the authorization on your credit card

[b1rk]

This happens when you use PayPal or Credit Card as a payment method? (it's a bit confusing there for me).

I've read there that only using PayPal let you change/modify your order afterwards.

I think it's just a special case that houses; Ground zeroes, special Blu-ray and the Phantom pain. The only differences is the bionic arm, this and the artbook. Think I am throwing an extra £100 into this edition compared to the western one which I am getting too lol

Makes it easier to buy off eBay then if multiple countries are getting the steel.

[Twisted]

I figure it will be like the metal gear rising steelbooks..at first they seemed scarce to come by, but post release..they could be had for inexpensive prices and plenty to go around...this game is bigger than metal gear rising..i doubt it would have a smaller print run for steelies.

[Dreamcazman]

Looks to be G1 in size too. *groan*

Yeah I think this will be common too - spent a lot for the GAME FF Type-0 Steel (only for the price to tank a month later) on top of the CE so probably wait this one out and just get the steel from eBay =/

Edit: for people in the UK, it is cheaper getting this from ShopTo than from Amazon fr

[Matrix6]

I really think the Shinkawa design will be more available in the PAL regions to buy as a bundle or preorder bonus! Most likely a bonus for Oz ^_^

Oops, sorry. It is Xbox One. The US version has the smaller scale arm. And I don't know how Amazon US deals with shipping out of the US (I was planning to just change the delivery address for the order).

[vhal_x]

I've just looked everywhere and all I can see is that all of the arms are 1/2 scale? Is there somewhere with 1/1?

I'd be interested in taking your preorder if you still have it :) x

Japan got a full 1/1 scale arm but it sold out within a matter of hours. It was quite expensive aswell if I recall, about £400 (if I remember correctly) inc shipping.

Still has it but ~ £250 + shipping + additional charges from paypal or bank etc and also they declare the full value from what I read about them - used them only once for a steelbook. Think playasia may have it too - not checked.

[xhunter]

Ah okay :) x hunter do you still have the preorder? x

I do, but like I said, I am unsure how Amazon US deals with shipping outside of the US.

[vhal_x]

Shipping outside of US is fine, I preorder from Amazon a lot :) if you update the address details to mine, it will show you if any changes are necessary (for instance, shipping costs or prepaid customs) :) You can also mark it as a gift too x

The full size arm is exclusive to konamistyle in Japan - you will only get the smaller size one for western territories

Bear in mind, you probably everything in french (like the map) if you get the France one but for a lower price. Considering the euro is tanking at the moment.
