Yeah typical shit from a big dev....Sell the figure as a CE 'exclusive' for months in advance to get us all to pre order, then release it as a stand alone a couple of days before release.

Yeah, it's disgraceful. Ubishop pulled this shit with the AC Encyclopaedia in the Animus Ed for Revelations and then put the book up for standalone sale on the ubishop when the game was due to come out.

Why do we keep buying their shit?

I was so annoyed by that one.
I wouldn't have cared about it though if it wasn't for the fact that the standalone one contained extra stuff that the one you paid extra for in getting the fancy edition didn't have.
On top of that the absolutely ludicrous postage costs made it worse.

Thank you for letting me know this. Auto boycott of the CE for me now.

Can't say I'm surprised. It's a Play Arts Kai figure after all.

Never like Play Arts Kai... they look funny to accommodate the joints (although if that's what you like they do the best of making the joints the least noticeable from what I can see).

I like good quality statues MUCH better then moveable figure... to each his own.


As far as why they do things like releasing another stature... because they know people will buy it! At the end of the day the dev can say all they want about how much love and passion went into the design and game but it is just about profit in the end (which is good, if they weren't we wouldn't get many games). Plus it is probably more to due with publishers then devs.
