So I'm gonna go ahead and assume I was dead on with my assumption that you'd prefer a wet towel.Because we have an interest in a CE of a game that we enjoyed...but not the crap being offered for the price. You honestly expect the thread to be filled with "Thanks, in for one!"? Maybe if this came with a Colette pillow. /jk
To be fair, the to get the complete soundtracks it'd take 8 dics, and in Japan they cost almost 8000 yen alone total.Yeah, no way I can justify the extra $60 for four figures, two incomplete soundtrack CDs, and a booklet. That's nuts. To give you an idea, those figures, part of a line called "Ichiban Kuji" here in Japan, generally have a market value of roughly $5 each.
What's so funny about the little figures?Went ahead and placed my pre-order for two, could care less about the game....ordering strictly for the eventual flip knowing all the 30+ year old virgin pedos still living in their grammas basement will be all over this collectible for the "dolls" lmao
You have to tell Amazon about their packaging. There's a feedback section specifically for that.They have been getting cheap on their packaging and only using the smallest size box possible instead of the next size up and putting in more protection. At least they have decent quality boxes that stand up to abuse unlike say Gamestop.
Doesn't mean they listen. Every package I get I tell them to stop using those stupid cardboard wraps.You have to tell Amazon about their packaging. There's a feedback section specifically for that.
As for the CE, it's not my bag.
Where exactly did I ever say that? Please quit trying to flame bait and get some reading comprehension.So you're not an actual fan unless you want all the stupid little toys and whatnot that go along with a series? I better head to TRU and check out their "The Walking Dead" selection.

I've received about 10 different damaged CEs/LEs from Amazon. Basically all but 2 I ordered were damaged.I am hearing a lot of people concerned about the amazon shipments. I have never received anything beat up from amazon, but I could see how a box more fragile like could get screwed up. I know that the Namco store is apparently horrible from Ni No Kuni, but if you can actually get your order through, do they have good shipment? If I knew I was getting one from Namco for sure, should I go with it for the shipping quality?
You can cancel through the namco website.Thank you Amazon for getting this! Now I need to cancel my Namco store order.
Does anyone have the phone number we used for digital river when the ni no kuni stuff was going on?
Yea, I agree, but for importing from other stores the Famitsu dx packs usually run 250 usd. So for a US buyer to get it tis alot. I have the fami packs for Xillia 1/2 and 100 is a steal since ppl in japan got charged 250.Yeah, no way I can justify the extra $60 for four figures, two incomplete soundtrack CDs, and a booklet.

Why did you preorder in the first place? Did you not see what the extras where from the picture or read?http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/10/14/this-is-tales-of-symphonia-chronicles-collectors-edition
Looks like junk for an extra $60. Cancelled.
Enjoy the 4 figures, soundtrack, and artbook.
As others have mentioned, it has both Symphonia games. According to people that have played the JPN version, ToS is the PS2 version which has some minor frame issues.Does it come with the two tales of symphonia game or just the gamecube one?
the copy of the game itself I guess thats what I'm looking for but can't find the info
It'll likely happen.There hasn't been word on a limited edition for the standard edition like ToX? I'd like the novel and soundtrack, but I've never liked chibi looking figures
So, whats the experience with the Namco shipping? Do they have good quality shipping and keep the items secure?I've received about 10 different damaged CEs/LEs from Amazon. Basically all but 2 I ordered were damaged.
The regular stuff I order tends to be fine but the CEs and LEs mostly get beat up.
Amazon CS is good but they can't replace an item if they aren't going to receive any more.
Even some of the replacements I told Amazon to ship in a proper box weren't packaged properly so I ended up with another damaged CE.
I could go through Amazon's discussion forums and pull out lots of examples of people complaining about damaged CE/LEs but the last one that I remember is this one

People are saying its a line of fugues and others just like these fr the same company cost $5. It's pretty silly to declare these a different value. People know what these figures cost. My Blu ray player comes with a free movie that isn't available at retail but everyone knows what a Blu ray costs.OK, so for everyone saying "oh these are $5 figures" can you buy these exact figures for $5 on their own? If not then they're not $5 figures.
It's Digital River, who are awful, that handles all these Japanese companies stores and they're beyond awful. If you can go through Amazon.
I know they can be awful with customer service and orders and such, but in the end, is the shipment itself better quality than amazon?OK, so for everyone saying "oh these are $5 figures" can you buy these exact figures for $5 on their own? If not then they're not $5 figures.

Namco confirmed at the NYCC panel that there would be a limited edition like ToX. It includes the light novel and soundtrack, just no figures or bigass box. Gonna be ordering this version since I don't care for the trading figures.There hasn't been word on a limited edition for the standard edition like ToX?

It does say on Gamestops site for the CE that it comes with a steelbook and DLC theme. Ugh I may be switching my order over to Gamestop nowHey guys. Can somebody confirm if GS has any exclusives for this edition. Someone else on another forum mentioned that the GS edition will have a steelbook and DLC. Is the Steelbook only a GS excluaive??
Thanks for the info. I'm not sure if I missed that in the articles I read or what.Namco confirmed at the NYCC panel that there would be a limited edition like ToX.

Instore pickup is better for those.I hadn't even noticed the steelbook--very nice!
