Seriously???...numbered you're saying... that's it???...I wish I knew this before buying...now don't tell me there was a thread already regarding this...snif...sad world...

It says it within this thread. It's apparently numbered, and the mask is better quality

Also, the outer box is different too I think xx

What do ou guys mean France edition looks the same? The packing or the mask looks the same? From the unboxing video of the france edition, the mask have better and darker lines and the packaging looks WAY sturdier than the normal CE.

That's because you're comparing the french package to the US package. I am yet to see an unboxing video of the UK version.

And not just that. The back of the french version is in english as well. And 13000 masks is a very high number for a single country.

I recieved mine today (EU version). I think the box is sturdier than the US one. I'm generally satisfied with the mask, it's not anything special in terms of the material made, but it's pretty good overall.

Anyone else ordered from amazon uk and haven't got their CE yet?Mine should arrive today,but it haven't and it still says 20% completion of order on the tracking page.

You are, mate. From the french unboxing i saw the edition is totally different to the UK one. The box has no window - different artwork. The artbook is softcover not hardcover and the mask looks a different colour/texture. Also looks hand painted for the detail. The base also has some text plus a number denoting your edition number and the print-run.

Definitely vastly different editions although i'd prefer the hardback artbook. The french mask looks nicer though . . .so it's six and two threes.

The UK mask is a cheaper material, quite lightweight and plasticky. The base of the mask is also cheap, hollow plastic (similar to the baase of the Alduin statue from the Skyrim CE). The box is thin cardboard, with a cutout on front, with clear plastic holding the bits together inside. Standard copy game and hardcover artbook also.

French CE mask is made of resin or something, well made, heavy and much nicer overall. Base is also a resin-y material, and has a number out of 13,300 on the underside. The box is a thick flap over black box with lots of padding inside, and a plastic slipcover over it (with a peel off dust sheet type thing round it also). Standard coppy game and soft cover artbook (artbook is sealed in this version though).

Hope I helped. Both editions are sticker sealed. No cellophane/shrinkwrap xx
