Well I broke down I decided to get this crazy gun from Amazon.ca

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B001CLYL24/ref=s9sims_c5_63_img1-rfc_g1-frt_p_si1?pf_rd_m=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=0XRBEF8EZB22XF16YEJ5&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=436832601&pf_rd_i=915398

It comes with the regular Gears of War 2 game but I paid the extra $10 to get the Limited Edition version. With taxes it came to $169 plus free delivery since I didn't need it in a rush cause I got soooo many games to play right now.

Anyone else here ordered it?

I want it but I shouldn't get it. I just know that the replica will be collecting dust somewhere... Might as well spend the extra money on some of the other games coming out, like Mirror's Edge and Left 4 Dead.

If it was another $30 (~$100 total) I'd be all over it.

but that was a just a helmet that you couldn't wear.

This is a replica of the gun basically.

A helmet you can't wear vs. a gun you can't use... same sh*t different pile.

This is just further proof that people will buy just about anything

Depends on their shipment. I think the initial batch of helmets sold out fairly quickly but then they made another batch which screwed them over.

Make it somewhat limited and they should be fine.

Looks like it sold out at Amazon.ca.

Remember this is an Amazon exclusive and made by Neca, a popular toy/collectible company. The Halo helmet was available everywhere.

I would get it if it was actually black instead of that silver colour. The lancer is actually black in the game, if I recall correctly (haven't touched Gears in months)

I didn't the notice yet but when I checked on my order status, both were said that it will ship on Nov 13 or 14. So I guess i won't get it till around the 21st cause I put it on the FREE 1 week delivery.
