I got one, so did Peckster. Matrix did you get one too?

Also, for those that did get one, were one of your pewter figurines broken? I had a broken one (gun was snapped in half), so I had a replacement box of pewter figures sent out to me, and the replacement is also broken in the same spot! Really annoying.

I didn't...

The shipping would have killed me and the 'only' really unique thing is the chest and the money went on Christmas for my family

Sometimes. I guess, you just have to make choices... hard though

The "3" is in reference to the individual numbering of the box as my brother has number "10". I imagine number "1" and "2" are the ones not being sold via auction.

According to Ubisoft Australia PR, there is only 10 in total, and the reason for only selling 8 is the other two are in essence 'display models', used to promote the auction. The final remaining two will be offered in some form or fashion, but at the moment is unclear how Ubisoft Australia intend on making them available.

i understand that ubisoft has said there are 10 of these and you have no.3 of the 8 released thus far..but still..they should of numbered them like 3/10 etc ..because let's face it..who can trust publishers and there numbers?..zavvi/konami actually wrote in a blog and official website the metal gear set was very very limited..i think they threw a number out like total production was 5000 or so...yet..they still have the xbox version for sale and many many many were damaged and returned and they got easily replaced if the customer requested that instead of a refund...so i feel there's several thousand more made then was zavvi/konami came out and said officially...so if konami had each metal gear hd individually numbered out of 5000..then we can hold them accountable..but when they don't we have no idea..if they really made 10000 or 20000 and did a press release and said 5000...my numbers are'nt exact..just off the top of my head..but i do recall them giving a specific number in a press release/blog and it was limited.
