Sigh...

"Game only"
Fuck off -.-
Hate the fact that they don't even send this type of package overseas with their limitation bullcrap.
Hope Amazon.co.uk will have it at some point.. :/

haha keep a lookout for amazon.de. Usually game exclusive stuff will be carried by other region amazon.

hmmm.... seems to be the standard nowadays

game, statue, steelbook, bunch of digital stuff

for 150 USD just like the god of war one.

CEs are getting more and more mass-produced and not so 'collector'

kinda sad to see this actually

i hope the statue is at least of decent quality.

Not deffending their price, but in this case the collectors edition is not that mass produced, is selling out really fast pretty much anywhere and in the portuguese store i normally buy, for the first time ever you have to pay immediatly for the CE (normally only pay upon release) and it sold out in a couple of hours.

The thing is with this one though is that it's hard to say if it is mass produced or not because of the massive cross-appeal between gamers wanting it and then superhero/Spiderman fans who might not even be hugely into the game who want it.

Haha, if I was looking for someone to blame in relation to the above for this selling out so fast I would be inclined to at least partially blame all those dreadful, shallow superhero films (especially Marvel's particular brand of watered-down child friendly tripe) that have flooded the market for years and broke superheros into being truly mainstream.

By that logic then the same should have happend with the Batman ones, and it didnt.

The one true edition for batman was the batmobile edition that was cancelled right before release. There was one on sale on ebay awhile ago with the full thing and the owner showed what was the defect and it was only a loose driver hatch.

Such a shame.

Well here in the UK it actually did from what I recall on Arkham Knight which would fit the timeline. Like Letrico also said, the true large CE for that one was the Batmobile which was selling out fast. Then once that was cancelled there was practically no stock of the Limited Edition with the light up statue.

But also the huge difference here is that Batman is DC and as I lightly touched on, I would especially attribute this selling out as it's Marvel which Spidey is and I think it would be fair to say that at this point, because of the aforesaid films that Marvel is huge, even compared to DC which would no doubt slant these figures even further.
