Ninja Gaiden 3 Unboxing

[zhaff2004]

Hey guys, haven't seen anyone do this for this game yet so I figured I might as well give it ago. It pained me to actually unbox this as I'm a HUGE Ninja Gaiden fan and would love to have kept a sealed copy but there was no chance I would have kept this sealed, maybe i'll pick up another one down the line if my pocket allows it lol. anyways, here it goes, will give my opinion at the end:

Still with shrink wrap





Back




The box inside the box




Artbook cover




Figure





All in all, irrespective of the heat that the game is getting, I think that this set is gorgeous, the artbook itself is good, its a nice size, just a little disappointed that it wasn't hardcover.

The figure is actually very well detailed and is about the same size as Drake from UC3, it will sit very nicely beside my UC3, ACII, Skyrim and Batman:AC collectibles.

The packaging was top notch, nice outer box, and a very slick looking inner box that protected the figure very well.

All in all, a top notch collectors edition that is a must have for everyone here The fact that it actually comes with a physical soundtrack is also nice considering most other sets prefer the easier digital download route.

On par with UC3 and Arkham City collectors, better than skyrim, and way better than the two Sigmas (thats a given lol)

thats what I thought as well, picked it up in the local gamestop (Edmonton, Canada) it was -7 outside, didn't take a car, walked there thinking it would fit into my bag, ended up getting badly shafted haha

Kinda freaky eh? Here in Ottawa it literally went from -25 to +23 C in a span of 3 days. Its like summer out there right now - in march.

I got this edition today too, I really like it. Just have completely run out of space to display the figure anywhere

I have the exact same problem, I'm still in 4th year uni, my desk is filled it books, my ipod dock, skyrim dragon, drake from UC3, batman for Arkham city, Ezio from ACII and a replica of the world cup trophy, dunno how to make more space

Great unboxing zhaff2004 zhaff! Clear, concise and to the point!
That is a surprisingly huge CE, I wasn't expecting to see such an eye popper. The overall size is about the same as Killzone 3 HE I reckon. I don't think I'll be able to display mine though, and I'm dreading how much damage the box will endure as it makes its way here from the UK...but it should only be a minimum quality damage [slightly crushed corners and maybe a hole or two ].

Now I must ask....what PS3 console do you have there?? Is it custom painted? vinyl stickers? or some official prize I've never ever seen?? Please fulfill my desire Thanks

Man, if only I had won this in a contest, Its a gelaskin, there is a site (I can post a link if you want) that takes any image you want and creates a gela skin/sticker/vinyl for you. costs about $35 with shipping, the quality is terrific, the image is from an old game called samurai showdown, what do you think? like the design?

No, don't say that, you're making me worried.

Granted Ozgameshop have been very good of late, everything I've gotten off them has been pristine, so I hope the same goes for this. Going by the pictures, the outer box looks to be of a stronger cardboard so that helps - is that right zhaff2004? Thanks for the great unboxing too.
