ginnyfizz Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Huh. It's £129.99 in the UK which is the equivalent of US$208. No, I will not be buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worm82075 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 While 150$ USD is a bit steep for most people, myself included, it's hardly a rip off. If you look around you'll see that most 12" PVC figurines retail for about 100$ and 200 page full size hard cover art books go for about 50$. Game = 60$Book = 50$Statue = 100$DVD = 20$Map = 10$ Total value = 240$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginnyfizz Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 It's still a rip off in my book, especially as in Europe we'll be paying so much more, just to add insult to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansutton91 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 They shoulda used pewter. or heck, even stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltreU Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I see the statue as an investment. In good few years, hopefully it'll bring me some more money than I spent on it. I think the price is justified, seeing as it is the "Collectors Edition", which would be for collectors..... and people like me willing to blow extra cash. Comes with a massive 200 paged book, a fairly large pvc intricately (at least it looks so) designed dragon on a wall of text, and the "making of" dvd. I had to repeat this to myself to justify it. I can't wait for it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndorilTheGreat Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Hmmm . Perhaps I will simply pre-order it, and then upgrade to the CE if Bethesda makes it a bit more... interesting.

marharth Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Bethseda would get more sales by lowering the price and getting rid of the statue imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aliensexual Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 It's worth it, I'm going to GameStop tomorrow to upgrade from the regular edition to the CE. The statue will go well with my pewter dragon collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndorilTheGreat Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 I'm actually rather surprised that they didn't have the OST included in the CE. In all honesty, I would rather have the soundtrack than the dragon statue... I digress. I'm actually planning on getting the CE, and hoping that the dragon statue pays off in about a year or so. I am a die-hard TES fan after all; ever since Morrowind stole my heart... :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
