      Nail on the head, 110 extra dollars should buy a LOT more than that. The book should be hardcover, the acrylic art should be a real figurine, the playing cards are lame, the pins are...pins, there should be a soundtrack or something. There's so much missing from this for such a crazy price.

  • @jkemp6791
    @jkemp6791 2 роки тому +122

    I bought one. If the game alone is $40, there’s no way the rest of the stuff is worth $110. I really wanted it because I’m such a fan of classic TMNT games, but if I could go back I would stick with the regular edition.

    • @davetheimpaler204
      @davetheimpaler204 2 роки тому +9

      Yeah, let's add up the value of everything in this box (aside from the game) if it were purchased separately at retail: (approximately)
      Cloth poster $15
      Pin set $10
      Collectible cards $10
      Acrylic diorama: $15
      Softcover art book $20
      That's only $70 worth of product. (and I'm being generous)
      Also, the cloth poster would possibly go for less, given it's small size compared to other cloth posters/flags, and the softcover small-sized art book would more likely be around $15 or less on Amazon.
      So possibly less than $60 worth of value here.
      Certainly not worth $110 imo.
      If I were to get one, I would just keep it sealed and flip it later tbh.

    Definitely a cool set. IDK that its worth $150 though, that seems like a stretch. With the base game being $40 I'd prob be at like $79.99 - $99.00 tops on this. And this is coming from a huge TMNT fan. I wouldn't necessarily be upset or disappointed if I bought this but $150 is definitely a little bit steep.

    It's a sad state when most of the items in that collectors' edition look like something you could pull out of a cereal box or gumball machine back in the day. Might as well have thrown in a decoder ring and a connect-the-dots puzzle in for the hell of it. Outside of the book, companies really know how to capitalize off of nostalgia these days.

I like that poster they gave in your edition as well but that fabric material is such a joke. lord forbid they actually use a nice stock paper and legitimate ink for their commissioned artwork they're making a killing on. plus doesn't the art (and the customer?) deserve a little more respect than that crappy cloth?

    Those tournament cards are pointless. They look well made, but what would anyone ever do with them? They won't even fit in standard, baseball card size sleeve for a trading card binder.
    At least you can put the acrylic stand on a shelf with other collectables. I would want to cut the clear parts around the turtles closer to the artworks to make it pop a bit more. For $150, they should have done a tighter laser cut on that design.

    Idc what’s in there i saw the size of the box compared to your hand and this would be a hard hell no! 150$ this industry just gets worse and worse but more power to whoever enjoys it and thinks it was worth it… 39.99 standard it is for me.

    if the ps4 version had the whole cartoon (the 1st one ) on Blu-ray and the 1st 3 movies (the new line ones) on UHD Blu-ray as part of package the $150 price wound have been gustfied.

    The book was okay, everything else was not for me. The cloth print looked too garish to go on my wall, if it was like an original black white image printed on a 10x8 fine art peper then I'd be interested. For the price I'd be very disappointed.

    Gently iron from the back with a towel in between before framing. Sadly the last couple years the book would retail at 50. Not justifying anything. Just used to work in a comic shop.

    Does the art book contain unique content that’s not part of the Turtle’s Lair section of the game?

    Lets be real even if all the extra stuff is worth $40 extra which it isn't it's all worth about $20 extra MAX you're still overpaying by MINIMUM $70 which is absolutely ridiculous, collectors editions are now an absolute joke, at least you used to get some nice shelfable figure or model but now what, you get some easy to DIY acrylic model with stickers slapped on it, what a joke.

    I was so curious about the limited edition, I am so glad I didnt bought it. 20 years ago I really liked limited edition games, I had the dead rising 2, the ninja gaiden 2 for ps2. But guess what, I just looked into my games bookshelf, and the desd rising 2 when I bought I look inside the box and put everything baxk inside, I never used anything inside that box, so this tmrn limited is just to expensive for things I will not use. I am just very curious about the art book, I dont want to have ir, just to be able to see at all pages I just whish somebody scans it just to look at it.
    Thanks a lot for the video, so Ndidnt have to buy it.

    It's a very expensive nostalgia trip, the base game is very affordable for the games we get but this one I'm not to sure. If we got maybe a retro figure or a blu Ray copy of the original movies or even a retro steel book. I think £100 max ,but if people didn't pay it I suppose it wouldn't sell , I dunno 🤔

  • @PotatoGurlSasha

    They went for nostalgia price.
    I bought a limited edition of another game for $90 and I still felt it wasn't much as I like. I has the artbook, stickers, a pin if you bought it from the store, cards if you bought the first run, a cloth.
    So 3 things, and 2 technically free for $40.
    I mainly do it to support the company to keep bringing games because the type of genre is so niche.

    The acrylic looks neat but could have been better. The art book is nice but not worth $150.

    Great content as usual but must say we need more remastered games like the Simpson’s nba jam nfl blitz Daytona USA etc because it seems like restalgia is something many plp want to purchase

    @Madlittlepixel While the $150 price is totally not worth it (I said that the moment it was announced), I believe I have a reason why the front Leo plate of the Acrylic Standee is cut the way it is cut. Not a justification, but something I noticed that would explain it. If you look at Leo's pose, he's holding his Katanas in his hands. The Katana in the right hand is pointed out toward the left side. I noticed (and you will too if you go back and look) that the blade of that Katana goes all the way to the left edge of the plate. If I had to guess, the designers extended the edge of the right plate to balance the plate as a whole. In doing that, length of the plate was extended beyond the length of the base. Again, not a justification, just an observation and the most likely reason why that plate was sized and cut that way. If the Leo plate had to be that size, they REALLY should have just made the base and the other three plates longer to compensate.
    But yeah, I agree with your review. The only two things that interested me in that edition when it was announced was the poster and artbook. Looks like I was spot on in believing that those two items were the only items really worth any value in that box aside from the game itself. This just confirms my intent to pick up a copy of the standard edition.

    I appreciate the acrylic display set but it it's such a modern novelty that it takes away from the nostalgic factor of the whole package.
    Paper pop-out stand as an alternative is impractical but it would've fit that era a little more, and may even reduce the price even if just a little.

  • @boomboxmartian
    @boomboxmartian 2 роки тому +1

    I wouldve mayyybe shelled out $100 for all that. The book alone is worth $30 or so to me. Everything else.. meh... $10 give or take.
    Thanks for reviewing. Saved alot of people some $.

  • @notjakefromstatefarm6969

    At best, it should have been set at 79.99-89.99.
    I would of went for it but at the current price, no thanks. Total cash grab. I will look around for the art book on ebay or something. Only thing I see worth collecting.

    Really... thats the question that you framed at the end of the video.
    Take the Cowabunga Deluxe collection... remove the game and say to yourself... would you pay $110 for this junk?
    If the book is dope... would you pay $110 for the book? I mean... do you really need pins, an acrylic display, some cloth poster and a fancy box?
    I mean... the cartridge itself didn't even look different from the $39.99 one, so they didn't even bother to differentiate that one from the one you buy off the shelf.
    This collectors set is just that... its for collectors that have serious FOMO pangs... that think that if they don't get it now, they will never be able to afford it later. So they get it... and put it on their shelf, and all is right with the world.
