Sadly GameStop like game UK won't accept msian credit cards or Msian billing addresses as well.

Long time never see bro. Nothing new from you? So many CEs coming in smile.gif

UBIsoft is from France. HEnce why their European versions are more exclusive and better too.

Of course when AC2 came out, the franchise was not so popular hence maybe they produce limited quantities. But once it caught on, they produce more like the subsequent sequels. Again Europe has better CEs like Codex Editions (brotherhood) and Animus Edition (Revelations). Even the recent Freedom edition sold out and now they going direct thru their website (even for other franchises like SPlinter cell) and different editions for different regions.

Now that the movie is gonna come out (Played by Michael Fassbender of Magneto & Prometheus fame no less), expect their figurines to go higher depending especially on who he's playing (can't be Ezio I hope as only an Italian guy can pull him off smile.gif)

Hey bro! I know... Been busy with job. Many CEs coming in, of course we all feel happy, but when look at our wallets i believe all of us feel the pain. - -''

I love AC franchise, im a fan actually haha. But yea, Ubisoft has different ways of selling their CEs, so prepare more money for it. Shipping will cost a bomb.

Not sure about the movie tho... I know they are making movie for AC, but u know, last time a few movies made from game those movies really wasted my time and money to watch. Lol xD

talking bout the price of the figuring, see it yourself

Assassin's Creed Altair's crouching figure

Should be one of the most rare assassins figuring in the market. I heard first it was only sold for 30-50 GBP but now  brows.gif

Yea.. that's one of the holy grails for any AC fan. If I had that kinda money, I would buy it too. 800 Euros sounds crazy but seems fair.. I saw it went before around 1,500 Euros. There's another Holy Grail statue for AC - Ezio Master Assassin (Black costume standing on a small wood plank). Below has signature and numbered as little as 75 units worldwide, if not mistaken.

So lets talk abit more about upcoming CEs specifically the GTA V ones.

Looks like every retailer already asking for pre-orders (most that I follow anyway) and is around RM 480 - 500 for the CE which has a cap and container or something. If not mistaken in US will be about USD 99.99 or maybe 119.99 which means quite the expensive around here.

What do you all think? Will it sold out? Or will it be another KZ3?

Analysts project 20 mil sales for GTA V so that means plenty of CEs to go around and the content doesn't look to difficult to mass produce (compared to say figurines). That and not sure whether got pre-orders for local games coz I think GTA V gonna get some love from Sony since they want to build back good relations (also got PS3 and headset bundle for this).

Previous GTA IV CE (with the steel locker) while nice can still be found close to Retail price though not sure if there is R1 or R3 (all I see mostly are R2) so maybe got too much supply around. And you'd expect GTA series to have a strong following.

I pre-ordered from different shops already but just concern about putting in deposit early.

What do u guys think?

I think gta5 ce will be mass produced lol. It has been on pre order for close to a month? Its still available..so my guess is it will go down in price just like kz3 and uc3

I think it will while the price won't go down, it won't go up either. Won't be too limited and items aren't that special to make it a must have.
In fact it's a step below GTA4 in terms of collectibles IMO. Most people would probably just go for the game itself.

Good points all. I may just pre-order for one upfront and hope it will go down like melt say (well at least not significantlylah).

Cheapest I found is SCgames which is RM 470 before tax refund making it around RM 450. That should soothen the hurt a bit should the price drop sweat.gif

QIsahn preorder require deposit RM 499! For me if in US its about USD 99, I hope that local would be around RM 300 - 350 tops.

@melt, so fast selling away your TLOU set. So good you manage to get more than 1? tongue.gif
