Default Need advise about pre-ordering Euro version of MGS: R

Hi... I am pre ordering Metal Gear Rising: Revengence in the US but I also want to get the Euro version with the figure (US version has the Plasma Sword Lamp) but am not sure where I can do this at a reasonable price.

If anyone know a website that will ship to the US and takes pre orders please let me know.

Cheers

I think your best bet is to have one of the ever so helpful european members on here forward it for you.

I'm not entirely sure what sites/retailers are getting that CE so there may be one that ships to the US but I still think having a member forward it for you is probably for the best.

Most of the group buys for this game have so far been for the steelbooks as they're much easier to do a group buy for.

So any members across the pond willing to lend a hand?

Have you tried Zavvi?, its exclusive to them in the UK (God knows why!)

They ship internationally to.

PS3

X360

I must say this edition looks sick, that figure looks pretty high-end for a CE of of this price.

Zavvi international shipping for it is 25gbp. Quite reasonable considering the the size it will be. Most probably the size of guild wars 2 ce. Similar dimension figure

Thanks, I will look into zavvi.

I actually just remembered my sister married someone from across the pond... even though they live over here now they could most likely reach out to someone for me.

Cheers

Hey guys, I just thought of something... will the UK version work on a US PS3? I know some games are universal and some aren't.

Cheers

Okay, thanks... I think the only issue would be the codes not working in the US PSN store but I'm not sure about that either.

Guys, one last thing (I was waiting until they open to call but maybe someone here knows) does Zavvi charge you right when you pre order or do they do the same thing as GameStop and charge you right before it ships?

Thanks guys,
Cheers
