Knight's Bioshock Addiction

[Knight]

@ Spurs - Seen it many times. Have been tempted many times I actually did look into it quite seriously but the cost of getting it to Australia was too high.

This is the first time that I get to see the Rosie helmet! Isn't that super rare? Like only 5 or 10 exist... or maybe even 1? Can't remember! Can you give more details (weight, dimensions, material, etc)?

Also the Big Daddy silhouette shirt. Pretty sure I've never seen that either. Where's it from?

Thanks for sharing your collection with us.

Hi V1,

Will do my best to answer, though I've since boxed it back up lol
In terms of amounts, that seems to vary, though who knows how many are still 'alive' so to speak. I've got a scan of the original document and that said 25 existed, though I've also read that the number was 24 and 26, so I'm not sure. It's probably about 10 inches in height. It's mostly plastic, though it has a switch so that you can turn the globe inside on. This allows it to light up with a blue effect.
Apparently mine is #3 and came from a developer.

That shirt you mean is in the picture under the Rosie right? I got that one about 4 or 5 years ago. I was told it was a rare exclusive tshirt that was given to some members of the press though I honestly dont know for sure. I haven't ever seen another one of them.

I second this motion!

You would be like a Bioshock Jesus if you had this.

Oh yes that's great I just started getting into Bioshock around the time SITS was ending was gutted I missed out on that they had some cool stuff.

Did you get your two prints unframed, still deciding what to do with mine!

[Knight]

Yeah - there was some pretty cool stuff in SITS. Made it difficult though as everything was happening in the US!

As for the prints - def unframed for me. I wanted the additional sig, plus I like to display with the additional white border where possible. I also like to pick the frame I want to match everything else - I've never really liked things unframed so to speak - it just doesn't have the look i like. (Oh and my sis in law does framing so I can get it done at cost mwahahaha)

Nice, thanks for the info. :o

Hopefully there's another BioShock game 4-6 years down the line, eh?

Yer does seem that the US get most of the good like all the handouts at things like PAX and all the bits that game sores seem to get, we do get some bits in the Uk but nowhere near as much!

Yes I went unframed as well I defiantly like the fact that you get the signature on the front think it adds to the print when it's framed. Just got to decide how I want it to look, would be good to see yours framed when you get them done!

I like your Bioshock collection a lot. This is another franchise that I was trying to collect, but it's hard to collect many franchises.

The giant Oxmox statue would be a lovely addition to your collection. I, too, have been seriously looking at that statue.
