Here.








Don't get worried about the material. I collect Koto statues and they're really high-end. If you know about Kotobukiya, then you'll know what I'm talking about.

Considering how big the game is, I actually consider it to be $80 which means you get the artbook and statue for $70.

The artbook will definitely be the best from a CE and that's saying something considering how sexy the Bioshock 2, Crysis 2 and Mortal Kombat artbooks were. As for the statue, I'm going out on a limb and say that it will be made out of the same material as Crysis 2's. Not that it's a bad thing, but they could at least have made it resin or pewter for that price. If not, they can go along the lines of the wizardry Ubisoft put up with the ACII Black Edition Ezio figurine.

To be fair, I found the Black OPS RC to be fun to play with. Want something really cheap? The Dead Space 2 CE's "replica" plasma cutter.

Nah. I bought the Infamous 2 Hero Edition for $75 and Bioshock 2 Special Edition for $60 on Ebay.

Didn't realize that the artbook was 9 by 12". That just made the edition much more special.
