lol that's pretty sweet

Wish we had something like that over here

CE's are pretty much standard prices on release

Certain stores offer credit and other promotions sometimes though

There's pros and cons of course..

Prices are better but sometimes you won't know what the exact price is or pre-order bonuses you are getting until release date or a few days before. Can be a little tricky for collectors who are looking for certain stuff.

Ah so it's more of a fly-by-night type of operation then

So do you watch there updates closely then?

Not really, they have been around for years, and are growing, even before I started gaming. Their customer service is very good and they are trustable. They have taken care of their customers should anything go wrong. It's just that they aren't recognised by official distributors because of their tendency to sell under suggested Retail Prices.

Yup always follow their updates, have bought plenty of games from them as well.

Or maybe there's seperate numbering for Latin america and asia like with the borderlands 2 loot chest?

Any idea how likely this is going to be the final product?
Those Bronze Kratos statues run over 35,000+ from the ones i've seen, i doubt they made that many Omega Edition's so i would say for sure the Bronze statue in this Asia Edition is definitely from the same Sideshow run.

yea the number of statues did not make sense because i also didnt think they have made that many omega editions if you look at the small market in south america, and i think most people there dont have the money to buy fancy ce.

Yup very likely they will be from that run.. Doubt they made an exclusive statue solely for Asia..

That said, SGD$139 (~US$113) is a good price for the game, 2 statues, the steelbook and probably the season pass..

Would like to get the special CE, but I don't think it will be available in cz. Also, is that second statue confirmed yet?

So far I have heard, it's an asia exclusive.. No official announcement yet.

It's Asia.. One of the most hardcore gaming continents but regarding news and updates, it's probably the slowest..
