Top 10 Craziest Video Game Collectors Editions

Sometimes, it’s worth shelling out some extra cash for that statue, artbook, soundtrack, and... race car?! Join http://www.WatchMojo.com as we countdown our picks for the Top 10 Craziest Video Game Collectors Editions.

For this list, we’ll be looking at the collector’s editions that even the most hardcore fans shy away from. We’re not just looking at the price tag -- but gaming packages that cost more than our home mortgages are certainly questionable -- we’ll be looking at the content in these limited editions, just so we can scratch our heads and wonder: why?

It’s not really a surprise to see Capcom on a list that’s about doing something crazy in the name of gaming. However, compared to some of their other collector’s items -- like a certain, impractical controller that doesn’t even make sense within the context of the game since you never use a chainsaw -- the premium edition to “Resident Evil 6” isn’t that terrible. Don’t get us wrong, the idea of paying nearly $1300 to have Leon’s jacket isn’t really appealing, it’s just pretty tame compared to the other things Capcom has done, particularly for the Resident Evil franchise . Plus, if we’re gonna have Leon’s jacket, we’d want the one from RE4.

Maybe we’re getting too used to seeing anime-style girls on pillow cases, or used as mouse pads with their breasts busting out for wrist support. Honestly, this all seems like run-of-the-mill things in Japan ... oh, this was actually in big retailers in the U.S.? All right, that might be something to talk about. There wasn’t even a way to be discreet about this edition, not when the box was decorated with different girls in questionable positions like “all tangled up” and “sausage time.” At least porn shops put your purchases in a black bag... n-not that we know anything about that!

How do you go from this ... to this? Have you ever seen something and immediately thought, “Well, someone is going to get fired for this one.” It’s not that we don’t want cool, zombified trinkets in our collections. Give us the figurines, the plushies, hell, we’ll even take stickers. But... this? A bikini-clad woman is one thing, but... only having her beaten, bloody torso? Just... round breasts, blood, and scars? Needless to say, people weren’t happy with the idea, and the publisher, Deep Silver, came out and apologized. They still released the collector’s edition though, so... lesson learned?

Statues of your favorite characters make for a sweet collector’s edition. In fact, the higher the quality, the better... unless if it’s our disturbing number 7 pick. We suppose we should’ve expected as much from a horror game franchise, and we can certainly appreciate neat horror swag... but isn’t this a bit much? On top of having a naked ghost lady in your collection, you could have a naked, pregnant ghost lady in your collection... whose fetus glowed in the dark. Because creepy, glowing, unborn babies is exactly what we need to have on display in our living rooms.

Have you heard of “Krater” before? Yeah, we hadn’t either until we heard about this desperate attempt to garner interest in the game. It’s an action rpg that you could own for $15... or $10,000! Yep, you heard that right: Ten. Thousand. Dollars. Maybe it came with a life size statue of one of the characters, or hell, maybe even a car! Or, even better, a visit from game designer, Victor Magnuson, who would cook a gourmet meal in your own home. Oh my god! THE Victor Magnuson? AND a fancy meal? When you put it like that... no, still no.

We’re not even sure if we can explain this one. It’s not the enemy corpse that makes us scratch our heads, nor is it the bodily liquid... which is kinda gross. We start to question things with the inclusion of the outfits worn by the girls who worked the Tokyo Game Show booth for this game, because... that’s a collector’s item? But wait, it gets more bizarre! The twenty people who ordered this crate -- yes, an actual crate -- got to have the package delivered, on a flatbed, by the game developer himself: Kenji Eno. At least it was only $1700 and not ten grand.

Trance... Vibrator? It can’t be what we think it is, can it? Of course not! This was simply a vibrating block that moved in time with the music. Makes sense, right? Until some girl put it in-between her legs while her boyfriend played the game then proceeded to write a detailed blog post about it. Sigh, only in Japan -- that’s not a joke, the bundle was only available in Japan. Somehow, developers didn’t realize the naughty possibilities of the device. When asked about it, Tetsuya Mizuguchi revealed that he innocently enjoyed feeling the vibrations on his foot. Hey, whatever works for you, we guess.

Ha! You thought we were kidding when we said “race car” in the intro? We get wanting to offer something that fits with the theme of your game, and we get wanting to have a grand collector’s edition, but... really? A race car?! Aren’t there special licenses you need for those? Well, for about $189,000, you could get a PS3, a copy of the game, and... sigh... a real BAC Mono supercar -- plus a helmet and race suit. You'd also get to spend a day at the BAC factory to have the car customized for your size. At least they took that into account?

We know that there’s people that invest a lot of time and money to prepare for the apocalypse. Well, for about $400,000, Techland will help out with that. This edition comes with a real-world zombie shelter, parkour lessons,night-vision goggles, two headsets, adult diapers, an XBOX One, four steelbook copies of the game, a trip to party with the developers, your face in the game, and a human-sized Volatile statue. Yep, you heard that right: an XBOX One. We were on board until they mentioned all the game swag, because really, do they think we need that during the end of days?

Before we get to the craziest thing to put in your collection, let’s take a look at these bizarre honorable mentions:

Gravure For You
“The Idolm@ster 2” (2011)

Playing Dress-Up With The Kinect
“Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor” (2012)

The W Controller Edition
“Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style” (1999)

This, Mojoholics, is the epitome of WTF. Here’s the world’s first, and only, million dollar collector’s edition -- no, we’re not trying to be funny, that’s seriously how much it costs. On top of getting a copy of the game -- because you damn well better -- you’d get a Virgin Galactic Space Flight, first class trips to Dubai and Washington D.C., a Lamborghini Gallardo, a Toyota Prius -- with a year’s worth of insurance, a year of Super Car membership, a hostage rescue experience, a spy training day, a personal shopper, a capsule wardrobe, plastic surgery, and a full size replica dubstep gun. What, no console? Well nevermind, then.
