Metal Gear Solid Ultimate HD Collection Zavvi World Exclusive only 4000 worldwide

[Matrix6]

Have Zavvi dropped 'First Class' or whatever for their shipping service? Does that include international shipping??

@V: Your theory on the first 4000 Steelies is a little to smart for Zavvi to work out, they'd require more IQ to work out a system for that, or they may be too lazy and just randomly throw the steelies into any orders. At least they didn't have to send out as many MGS4 games as many initial pre-orderers cancelled theirs.

everyones so far is a steel, so until the stickerbooks start showing up they are more likely to be steel. as Vhal said all orders are first being filled by the original 4k.

only way or really knowing is opening it.

Hopefully if I manage to get a PS3 order, I get a steelbook, 'cause if I end up with a stickerbook it's going straight back xx

I was angrily messaging them and seeing if there was any way possible that they could assist me in getting my hands on a steelbook copy and they told me that, then said and the first 4000 copies have already sold out, so even if I order now, I won't be getting a steelbook xx

well there is a chance the bar codes are different - I don't know why people keep ignoring this fact? if we at least confirm the barcode at this stage then we might notice a different number and therefore be able to tell without opening...of course the stickers COULD have the same barcode but I think this is highly unlikely.

I don't think it's too difficult to arrange that the first 4K that get sold are steelies - they would have arrived in pallets of (say 1K) so they know what stock is what. alternatively they could hold the stock in different places in the warehouses - it's not rocket science.

thanks - that's the same number we have so far, technically there's no way to be 100% sure - but it's highly likely yours is a real steelie. I suggest waiting it out until we have a barcode from a sticker box (if they exist)

I'm sorry you cancelled, luckily I decided to take a risk (and it paid off) - I've lost out before so wanted to ensure I didn't miss out this time!

4012927054062 is the confirmed PS3 barcode, assumed to be the steelbooks (if there are stickerbooks, and if they have different numbers)


4012927036525 is my Xbox 360 barcode, assumed to be all stickerbooks xx
