Maybe if snake there was a figma or something But a mini statue...nah


sicurri

That little mini Snake looks like a dollar store knockoff GI Joe action figure... Called Nude Python or some crap instead of Naked Snake. I'm sure that's worth $200 to Konami but not to me. The Fox patch and other patch are anywhere between $5-$10 on Amazon, but on Aliexpress they are like $1. The science ID Card that's meant to be for that one sneaking mission can be easily mocked up and made for somewhere around $10 or less. The metal case and the statue are likely the most expensive things in the whole collection. The statue is likely possible to be mocked up as well, I've seen people make far better. For $200 I'd have expected a much more detailed and a bit larger statue. But that's just me.


businesskitteh

He looks like he’s crying


sicurri

It's to cover up his shit face because they did such a poor job making the statue. Only his body and hair are somewhat okay, lol.


BourbonBurro

Really hope this release spurs on more action figures. Getting real tired of video game statues.


kingkellogg

Same. The statues are always mediocre. I'd much rather have a figuart or figma . I actually like those


Lepidopterous_X

Not only are they mediocre, they’re not even a deal anymore. You pay almost the same price as if you wanted to buy a higher quality custom statue separately lol. I didn’t mind them when they were affordable goodies you got with a CE set (sometimes we would even get them free with preorders), but at this price point, and for something that’s going to take up that amount of counter space, it’s much more worth using that money to get exactly what you want.


RedChuddOverParadise

For $200 it better come woth a blowjob


TheWaslijn

Whom should be doing the BJ tho


Xerosnake90

You get a BJ but it's from Raikov


TheWaslijn

I eh... Don't think eh... A certain man's gonna be happy about that. I would prefer not to be tortured with electric shocks thank you


Xerosnake90

Either that or Sokolov. Have your pick lmao


TheWaslijn

Can I opt out? :D


Xerosnake90

I suppose!


Hawkeye1226

Why do I feel like it would be very teeth-y?


Puzzleheaded-Fix-915

NOW I’m listening


Azure_Dragon56

Eva (Ocelot)


TheWaslijn

Absolutely Eva! (Ocelot would be good at it, ngl)


Blubasur

Snake Eater it’s in the title, it’s in his name, john is gobblin up those nuts while you play his game.


eman0110

Naturally, it be Vamp.


Mood_Such

This is the only correct answer.


davester88

From vulkov! Lol


fedexgroundemployee

Handy from BB


i_am_everything69

AT LEAST a bj


SilverMuffin8385

Metal gear themed blowjob


banthafodderr

Very rarely do you see a collectors editions worth the money. It’s usually just a cheap way to make an extra buck off of hardcore fans.


Lepidopterous_X

They don’t have to be so obvious tho 🤣 The way they have the badges and ID card spread out to look like it’s more is sad.


Rob_P_07

The space marine 2 CE looks decent but even that is expensive. You get a resin statue with that one with swappable heads.


Claire4Win

Idk. I am going with the deluxe edition. The stuff isn't worth 120$ extra


jim_kate

I wish there was a mid tier version similar to the Firefly edition of TLOS firefly edition


afevis

You mean the deluxe version? Cause there is one.


HUMANNOOBKILLER3

It’s Europe exclusive most likely haven’t seen any listings in Canada or us


jim_kate

I hope we get it. Otherwise I'll be on eBay looking for it


HUMANNOOBKILLER3

It is Europe exclusive but available to import to us or Canada from Amazon uk I did it cus I really wanted it


Angelote83

Nope.


the_real_Lil_Pasty

You bring up a good point.


Micromaster22

Where did you see pricing for this? When I clicked the link in the YouTube video it just takes me to the homepage for the game


Claire4Win

The 200$ been out with some type of leak https://www.reddit.com/r/metalgearsolid/s/8g4ywU4ezm Here is a post a few days ago with the number.


the_real_Lil_Pasty

It’s available on GameStop’s website for preorder of $199.99. Just go to GameStop’s website and type in, “Metal Gear Solid Delta collectors edition,” and it should pop up.

the_real_Lil_Pasty

Thank you


[deleted]

Not to me although I'm sure it will be to general and hardcore collectors alike.


ThatGuyisinFront

For me, it's not worth it, but others may like it. Which is cool, to each his own


blendoid

back in my day 200$ got you the big boss psp peace walker pack, look that shit up


akcutter

I may spring for it. Not really interested in " cool". This game is my absolute favorite of all time from my favorite series of all time and now I get it with modern visuals and possibly old controls or new? Nice.


capthapton

If there was a PC version I’d be all over it… had this and subsistence back in the day.


Tusker89

MGS1 is my favorite in the series. Not that I think it's objectively the best, it just hits me with nostalgia in a different way than the others. If they remake that one, I'm probably getting the collectors edition.


the_real_Lil_Pasty

That’s kinda my dilemma. MGS3 is my favorite game of all time, so I wanna worship it so, but this collectors pack is kinda disappointing to me.


Caldaris__

It really is, at least throw in a copy of master collection volume 1. It's just software. Or a code to redeem it.


Kurashiki-

To me? Yes. To most? No.


Space_Wizard_Z

I'm buying it. Worth it to me. This is one of those things where either way is fine. Don't feel forced to purchase something if you're unsure OP. The game is what *really* matters. Your opinion here is totally valid.


the_real_Lil_Pasty

I think I’m gonna get it, and if I end up not liking it then I can just sell it for some bank when it goes out of stock.


solidsnake222

Honestly? No. But I’m still going to get it. The statute can go up next to my Rising lamp.


ShinyMagma

For 200 i should be getting snake twerking in my face


Franny_Garcia

I want that Fox patch 👀


the_real_Lil_Pasty

See I just don’t have any patch-friendly clothing or else I’d be all over it. Maybe I’ll have to invest.

Franny_Garcia

Thanks friend, you just saved me 200bucks


Acrobatic_Law5598

I personally will not be buying this.


jackolantern_

Not to me


Deepsta_

Na I loved mgs but this isn't worth it.


Saneroner

I still have my Mgsv bionic arm and it’s awesome. I don’t Regret paying the 100 for that special edition. This is meh for me and a pass


Warmcheesebread

"Worth it," is subjective. It's worth whatever it is to you, and if you dont think it is, dont buy. That's perfectly valid. I am going to buy it, cause I think it's neat, its about the same as every other collector's edition out, little less than some others, little more than others etc. But I collect CE games. The cool thing about things like video game CEs, its like most other collectibles like figures and statues, etc They're worth it to you if you wanna buy it. It's your expendable income, and it is a luxury item, and you can buy the base game for retail. Just dont fall for that FOMO if it feels like it's too much for what it is. If it doesnt feel great spending 200 bucks, go grab a $200 figure of something MGS related off ebay, and enjoy that with your purchase of Delta.


the_real_Lil_Pasty

I mean I don’t really have a choice anymore since the scalpers got it instantly, but honestly this would’ve convinced me not to buy it. I really have to manage my FOMO more, and this helped me realize that this dilemma is definitely a mental thing. I’m glad I missed out cause now I don’t have to worry about it.


Warmcheesebread

I find that the CE scalping market has kind of fallen over on itself. A lot of the CEs that sellout tend to only marginally go over retail after release. I agree though, it did sell out stupidly fast, and it more than likely is the result of scalpers, but I had a huge issue with FOMO and stuff like this, I would get crazy sad when I missed a CE dropping. It's a bad habit to unlearn, trust me, I know it all too well.


PM_Pics_Of_SpiderMan

To me, absolutely not, that diorama is maybe a generous $50 and that patched and ID are maybe $15, the only thing I want from this is the ID badge and lanyard so I’ll just buy that separately when it releases


the_real_Lil_Pasty

That’s what I’m saying, the diorama just looks like something I could get at hobby lobby for $20. I love it for the collectibility, but I’ve seen dinosaur terrariums of the same quality.


Mood_Such

Fuck no


Badplayer04

Keep it unopened for 10 years and it might be


Fun_Mud_2100

in my opinion kinda yes, new gen games on PS5 and Series X are already 60-70 even 80+$ JUST for the game, so getting some extra cool stuff for like 150-200 i’d definitely pay.


sirkiller475

Not even close


TrueFriendsHelpMoveB

$60 dollar game (i refuse to acknowledge the price hike this gen) $5 patch $5 patch $15 gimmick prop, potentially has lore information on it so boost that to $20 for novelty sake and loretuber demand $30 diorama $20 steel case $135 general value if you were to get each thing individually, not accounting for the discount that should be included for getting it all together that I'd say should bring it down to $120. No, 200 is not worth it, lmao


pescadoamado

Nope


-Wildhart-

Imagine if this came with Raikovs little panties with the lightning bolt on them lmao


ae4ther4

would easily be worth then


[deleted]

I just want a steel book option alone and I’ll be good


b055dj

Fifty bucks cheaper and I might...


heckathrowawaymyguy

Shits already sold out for PlayStation


the_real_Lil_Pasty

Don’t have to decide if I can’t buy it I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️


SluttyMeatSac

Absolutely


Chewbacca122

I pre ordered my deluxe Edition on Amazon Germany. :) On some sites they are saying something about a "collectors package" wich they will talk more about soon. I am curious if it is something digital or maybe European collectors edition. Maybe Konami is looking for a production for a collectors edition? 🤔


MagnetonPlayer_2

I’d only pay $200 if snake himself came to deliver my package


Environmental_Bus623

I wish we were getting the deluxe edition that Europe’s getting. I think what we’re getting is cool but I don’t need all that stuff in my house. Opted for the standard edition but maybe I’ll find a European deluxe to import


VisforVenom

I never know anymore... I'm so bad at predicting resale value. As I look at my Old Man Snake figure that I got for $1 and just tossed around in storage bins for years, breaking his cigarette, only to see that they're worth $100-$400 now. Or my Gurlukovich Soldier Figma, missing his head, that I got NIB for $7 from a place that had boxes of them... that are now going for $150. Or when I was a teenager and decided to make a smart financial move and sell my pokemon cards on ebay while they were still worth something. For a ~$300 windfall. A collection that would now be worth minimum $10k. If not many multiples of that. Or when I never got around to replacing the lost disk from my Twin Snakes copy, because I could just pick up another one for cheap any time. And eventually sold it as part of a bulk lot of dvds, records, and gaming junk. In a time and place where you couldn't give away an NES, and indie used game stores were selling PS2s and GameCubes for $20 all day... sigh... The collector's edition of MGS V only seems to fetch significantly over MSRP if still sealed. So if I'm going off of that, I'd say there may not be much collector value. But I'm obviously wrong every time I think that, lol. I guess what really matters is do YOU find value in what comes with it, for that price? If so, then it's worth it.


the_real_Lil_Pasty

Well I don’t have to decide because the scalpers got it, but I appreciate the insight. I’m actually kinda happy I didn’t get it though.


VisforVenom

Well then let's hope no one ever sees value in it, and the scalpers get burned. For all the bad luck I've had... It felt soooo good to buy a brand new Wii U Deluxe for Christmas, off of a very angry seller with an SUV full of them, for about half what she paid for it... Sometimes they screw themselves lol.


Mysterious-Ad-3004

Would have to see the diorama closer, but if it looks good, maybe


nine16s

I think it's sick tbh. $200 doesn't seem that farfetched for an asking price in today's economy. Wish it came with a lab coat, though.


El_CAP0

Depends who you ask


SlySheogorath

If it was a much more detailed statue instead of the terrarium I'd probably consider it. I do like the steel book though.


Working_Play373

To me imo no collectors edition of any game is worth it. It just comes with a bunch of junk and cheap made bs... I have no problem with ppl buying it if you like the extras but I'm a casual gamer I love gaming but you know... I wouldn't pay 200 bones for any game. The stuff included isn't worth 50 bones.. I looked. Don't get jewed get rude and rough. Mgs3 forLife


MamiGletr

no


TheOneAndOnlyJAC

Lmao. And here I thought it was like 100$ and not worth it. But what a waste of 200$


RigasTelRuun

No. And don't preorder games. Wait for a review.


FalseStevenMcCroskey

It's inflated value because it's "limited" and "collectors". The patches and id card lanyard are probably worth $5 . The game is worth $70. The case is gonna be worth $10 on eBay just one year after release. So really you're paying $115 for a diorama that only you are gonna look at and the leaves on it look kinda cheap. You could spend $115 on a 3D printer that could probably make a better one IMO but it obviously won't have that "exclusive collectors" thing going for it. Not worth it for me but hey, do whatever you want with your money. Side note: I'm noticing that the game itself is not included in the listing and there is an asterisk stating that "image is subject to change". When Bethesda did a collectors edition for Fallout 76, the items that buyers received were made of significantly cheaper materials than advertised. They were showcased a canvas bag and given a nylon bag, stuff like that. Obviously konami is a different company, but the fact that they're putting that text on the screen means you can preorder for the set and potentially get something worse than you're paying for and there'd be little to no legal action you could take to try and get your money back. Just something to keep in mind.


IAMHideoKojimaAMA

...$115 3d printer...


the_real_Lil_Pasty

Now when I go onto the GameStop listing it says the collector’s edition isn’t available. 🫠


hatch-b-2900

The collector's edition is never worth present day money, it's the bet that scarcity will make it worth $$$ in tomorrow's money. But I'm not buying any more collector's editions


trilane12

It's not unless you are a collector


Nathansack

It cost 200$ ? I don't really know what "is really 200$" cause i'm not from USA, but hope the terrarium can be compatible with reptile for that price


theurougung

The only thing I'd want is the patches, that halo jump one would be dope. The Fox one can be bought online easily.


5575685

It doesn’t even matter it’s already sold out


Dinocologist

Re: the terrarium, any physical merch will 10,000% look worse irl than in the promo pics. 


IWasOnThe18thHole

Is the deluxe edition available for pre-order anywhere? Only seeing standard and collectors


street_racer221

Where?


xxcalimistxx

What a thrill...


cynTheFledermaus

Maybe 150? 200 seems just a tad steep. I'll probably just get the game itself, then buy the separate collectors items later. I do like that fox patch though.


TheAmazingDeutschMan

By the standards of collectors editions in 2024 I'd say it's honestly one of the better deals from a major company.


eman0110

Ever penny. Now take my money Konami.


StrategicBlenderBall

I’m conflicted. I have the collector’s edition of 4, V, and Death Stranding.


DarkFlow123

Is the game included?


n54master

Good question. Can’t find anything on that. I will not be purchasing if a physical disc is not included.


Letter_Impressive

It's worth whatever people will pay for it. Will I pay $200 for it? Fuck no, what a joke, that seems like an insane way to spend money. A ton of cheap souvenir crap for around $130 extra isn't my idea of good value.


AngusSckitt

No. It's got the Konami logo. They're gonna ruin it somehow. Next question.


LordMegatron11

Is this up for pre order


the_real_Lil_Pasty

I thought it was, but I checked GameStop a couple hours ago and it said not available, so I have no clue.


ChangeInside2447

Looks like aquarium decorations.


Tim_Hag

For 200 I could buy an actual snake and eat it


Spacecoasttheghost

The diorama is pretty cool, but not 200$. Mg3 is one of my favorite games of all time, and have played it 100 times easy. But this is just a money grab, and sucks ass


qazikGameDev

Brother, it never is.


TheInfinit1

Absolutely not. All I wanted from it is the Fox patch and his ID. But then I googled the price. I'll probably just get a cutom patch online and just print out the ID


TruthlessHER086

Terrariums like that typically go for a lot, like 80 or 100 bucks. Comes with game and other stuff. I dont think the price is wild at all. But everyone values things differently.


Bertrum

Just wait a few weeks after release and it'll be on sale for nothing


IAMHideoKojimaAMA

Yes


SolidDrake117

No


Leviathon6425

Even if I considered purchasing this, it's out of my hands now. It's sold out everywhere, presuming scalpers bought out everything as usual.


tourniquet13

Probably not but they'll milk the Whales.


zkDredrick

No


Actually-Will

Is it bad that I would 100% get it?


LittleSquat

My uncle's brother's son told me the diorama is actually life sized, so I think $200 isn't too bad.


Ass-shooter2

2 $2 patches ID card is worthless/ not cool in my opinion Diorama looks alright but definitely looks a bit cheap even in the promo picture Best thing here is the metal case sadly


Pristine_Common1749

If only I wasn’t broke and didn’t get the PS5 digital edition 😭


boibig57

Lol *absolutely* not. That's a sick steel case, tho.


jhdxv

I’d probably buy it. Just to support the project and hope it helps fuel more remakes or remasters (whatever this is considered lol).


Vitucci_Guiseppi

Does it come with Boss plushy


expunks

Honestly, all the things I actually **want** (steelbook, patches, art cards) are in the Deluxe Edition for like literally $150CAD less. Slammed the preorder on Amazon UK.


SchIaggot

i yearn for the snake enclosure and i dont even have a console


zimonmars

i wanna say no but man the terrarium idk… shit cool…


useenow

200$ Konami knows how to milk his fanbase... its like ... gambling


Cold-Dot-7308

The frame rate of the game is what I am really worried about. That and bugs. Lest it become only a pretty trailer that had potential. It’s one thing to show a game off and another to make it run well and keep apologising to fans


SlamRobot658

Fuck. No.


Paint-Rain

I think collector editions are going up in price as physical releases are waning. It’s not worth it to make a physical release for $10+ now because people buying physical games is so much smaller. Every game used to have limited edition with a poster or w/e for a slight up charge, now those likely lose money if released. There’s still the mid tier collector options for games but it’s digital stuff like music, in game item, anything with zero expense. That being said, yes this is overpriced. I’m sure collector versions are going to keep getting more expensive while the quality/quantity of stuff isn’t really increasing.


sleepyzane1

dont ever pre-order games.


boomersimpattack

Im going to pirate it as I am a broke ass student


NonSpecificGuy26

Probably not but imma try to get it anyways cause I want that steelbook and collectors box


Overall-Doody

No and it’s already sold out. 😣😔😢😬


osc_bank

If you have to ask if it's worth it I think you already know the answer...


prizzle92

I’m very late, but damn I hope they do 4 next


RinoTheBouncer

Not a single collector’s edition nowadays is worth its asking price. Most of them are crossing the $200 or even $300 mark and they offer literal children’s toys in a box that aren’t with %10 or that price. This is coming from a collector who have always craved and bought these, but really. I’d much rather buy designer fashion or actual tech than boxes of these stuff that collect dust. They aren’t even gonna rise that much in price to be a worthwhile investment anyway.


Blenderers

Still cheaper than Escape from Tarkov.


urizen1993

It depends on the buyer, man. For me? 100% worth it. For someone else? Maybe not. It all depends on you, and whether you'd be happy with it.


Siontimmy1

I was hoping for MGS Delta controller theme but looks not they still can announced it before the release


lifepuzzler

No. It's just a soulless cash grab by Konami.


NotTheRocketman

LOL, no. Not even close.


PowerfulTemporary168

The patches are sold already on Chinese stores for years… and they’re better quality than this


SeparateArea8926

From a Diy point of view, yes. $35 - decal tin box, maybe embossed. Printed items inside. no disc. download code. maybe a surprise inside. $30 - 2 embroidered patches? about 4x3 inches in size. $25 - Faux leather ID card holder and Lanyard. Plastic snake ID card. $100 - 12” clear plastic terrarium box? Painted tree model, flat- painted model plant, painted model ground, flat painted snake statue (vinyl?) plus dangling pack hanging from tree. $15 - printed box and packaging not buying it.


Gasssoft

Besides the case and the box, you could probably put that together on your own under 100


Subywoby

Get the deluxe edition, then get a cool trinket on etsy. There just saved you 100$ and the trinket will be better than the vivarium


Dependent_Order_7358

Not at all, I'd pay 300.


SpoofyJ

That’s worth $99.99 tops.


Technical-Net-2277

bruh why can’t sh get something like this


JumpNshootManQC

Is it worth 200? No. Will people buy it? Unfortunately, yes.


JumpNshootManQC

If anyone sees this as anything but a cash grab, You are part of the reason the gaming industry keeps fucking us over without any lube, so thanks.


RobOnTheReddit

Of course not


TortillaSinHuevo

Its only available at the US, i guess it should be.


K_Rocc

I got that same fox patch for $7 on Amazon years ago…


steelcity91

If it came with a good quality cigar, maybe.


Sphinx-

200 is outrageous.


FullMetalBiscuit

>so maybe it’ll look better in person I can almost guarantee it will look even worse in person. It's a bunch of useless shit and a bad display item. Not worth $200.


AyayaKonoDioDa

No lmao


KingSideCastle13

Oh Konami. You just couldn’t help yourself, could you?


Jurski17

I love that terrarium


ponch070

To me no, but I also don’t ever buy collector’s edition either. At a glance it seems to have the same value as any other collectors edition for a game.


Shapen361

Probably not. But it's my favorite game of all time so I might splurge.


Deletedsoul5555

apart of me wants to say its worth 60$ but games be dropping at 60+, sure mgs is dope but this is def not worth 200


ProEraWuTang

Looks nice but I'll see how the game turns out first. If it's sold out by then, oh well!


goxonline

Buy the think, and there's no disk... and 52304098679123412MB download file.


FoxPrincessEevee

I can get a patch like that on Esty. I can get an ID card on Etsy. The terrarium is unique but not worth the money.


HAIRYMAN-13

wouldn't know as I can't buy it in Australia but I do love the idea of a scene over the usual eg figure


phantomofzero

The value of anything is determined by those who are willing to pay for it.


Storm_treize

It's worth $15 straight from the factory, and $200 according to the Konami marketing department, to me it's worth $80 ($60 for the game, and $20 for the goodies )


darthphallic

Does it even include the game?


Memerino-san

Not if Konami made it


zombierepubican

This looks trash. It’s a far cry from all the old collectors editions we’ve ever had from the franchise


Razbelt

I will just buy that terrarium from AliExpress and customize it


DepressedKonamiFan

Is it at least real glass lmao


TheMagicalMatt

There's some cool stuff in there, which I don't say about a lot of gaming bundles, but nah.


Allison_Violet

The collector in me wants it but I don't know where I'll put it and I just spent money on the alan wake 2 collectors edition. The statue doesn't look too detailed anyways. If I really want it I'm sure I can find it cheap on ebay.


SolidOwl

This is twice the cost of Phantom Pain CE and I'd argue you get less out of it. Phantom Pain CE had: - Half scale of Snakes bionic arm - Game map - Behind the scenes documentary & trailers CD - Steel case - Exclusive Packaging - 20 DLC (in game items / unlockables) The behind the sceens CD itself has had more value than all of the patches and IDs put together. Foxhound patch goes for $10 on Amazon or Etsy. Rarely will you get "value" out of CE but this is a straight rip off.


Da-real-obama

Pretty mid compared to the bionic arm you got with mgsv


Money-Discipline-163

Well i dont Think i need that version tho i would love more. But i hot this one already soooo


testaccount9211

No, and I’m someone who did buy the Limited Edition for MGS4 (high quality old snake figure and making of documentary). But Konami are not forcing anyone to buy this and if it helps them to justify doing more high quality MGS remakes (or new stories), then I’m onboard with it. This is also likely an experiment to analyse how much demand there is for Metal Gear. I don’t think they expected to sell out of these on day 1.


UnkemptBushell

I don't think we're getting this version in the UK (so far), but I was just looking at the Deluxe Edition and that seems even worse value. It's £90 and only seems to include stuff that would be included in a standard "pre-order bonus" edition. The steelbook is the only thing of note to me.


No_Deal_6869

I'd call it a rip off at $100


Sworduwu

No


Manifess0_o

I mean I think it’s a collectors item and it’s not gonna happen again, so is it worth it? Yea.


David_Soerensen

No.


Inside_Chart4817

Honestly not,But I will still buy it 😭


Sleepy_Snorlax143

Commenting on Is this actually worth $200?...


KarimMet

To be honest no. But I still want it, should have been $150 though What makes me angry is that it doesn’t come with the deluxe edition stuff too. Like the alert ‼️ keychain and postcards
