Loads detail in the figurine mate, it's a really good one - well worth picking up if you can get it for a good price. Seems to be a bit expensive on ebay at the moment.

only the pc and xbox versions got the big daddy figurine edition the ps3 was relegated to simple card sleeve which is nice and shiny but not as good. i love the figure from the 360 set though, looks great altogether in the box.


I thought as much. I have the game with the sleeve but like you say, it's nothing compared to the figure. A shame really as the Big Daddy has quickly become one of my favourite enemies since I started Bioshock the other week.

Think I'll pass then. I was hoping it was another one of those collectors' editions like the DNF one where there were loads around at massively slashed prices. Not having a 360 also makes it pointless to buy a big set for a console I don't own anyway.

Cheers for the replies anyway, always nice to know the facts :)

On the subject of Pandoa, if you register Xenoblade, Last Story and Pandora on the NoE site, you could win some coins

Nice! Would love one in English for that price. Anyone found a decent price for the English 360 version, that's in stock??
