I should point out is in the US we are getting the statue for essentially $28 ($48 for statue, art book, steelbook, and more... so I gave a rough $10 value to each other item) if you deduct the $48 for the game. So it is a different ball game for us this time around for sure... sucks that a good portion of the rest of the world gets screwed with bad or no price conversion rates.


$150 for you. Is that in dollars? Also what would the game alone cost you and what would the special edition cost you?
Yeah, I totally agree that we must compare it to something similar and that is why I'm not comparing them, I just indicate how things should be with figures.

Yeah I know. My zelda first4figures cost me 350US$(without shipping).

Yup. 150 in US $. The game alone costs ~78$ and the special edition costs ~90$.

Why do you guys get the libertalia so cheap?
The special edition is $98 here and the CE $200. So I am paying $100 for the statue which sucks, but all CE's are really expensive here, so I usually just buy special editions if it's not a game I really really like.

If it's the same deal with the fire emblem fates special edition and special editions/CE in Norway, it's your currency combined with real high VAT that increases the price compared to other European countries.

That's right. The currency have fallen a lot over the past year because of the oil prices. Also the VAT is high. Doesen't help to buy from other countries eighter, if I buy something from for example ebay worth say $150, I would have to pay around $60 at the post office. We basically get bent over here

I totally understand. I have friends from Scandinavia, who go through the same problem :/
Sometimes if the price difference is big from here, I buy them and ship them to them.

I forgot how close this was to coming out and have fucked it in my budget. Praying they don't take payment till Saturday That's what happens when you're without your laptop for a bit, which contains all your budget plans and stuff (and with my daughter's first birthday yesterday haha) xx

So not worth the price.
That statue looks cheap, in the video they've over saturated the colors to make it look more colorful than it actually it. Overwatch statue has better quality imo.

Overall, the CE isn't as good, packaging-wise, as US Uncharted 3 CE. Had more contents in U3CE and a lower price. I can see thing dropping on sale next month like the U3CE.

I would be curious to know how you rank it against the Uncharted 3 statue
