    My GameStop pre-ordered version of Assassin's Creed 2 - Master Assassin's Edition just arrived and I thought others might be interested in seeing what's in it. For only about $20 more than the base game, it's got some pretty good stuff. I'm not a big fan of pre-order game play exclusives, so hopefully the levels included will be released to everybody before too long.  
     
    I loved the first Assassin's Creed, and yes, it was a bit repetitive, but I'm a pretty boring guy. It suited me fine. Can't wait to start this one.
     
    The Ezio figure towers over my Altair figure. No wonder Ezio can climb so much better.

    I got this edition, too, and my only gripe with it is the box is HUGE! I know this is because the figure is so big, but it makes it feel kind of cheap. I like the art of it, but it always feels like I'm gonna dent the crap out of it every time I open it. Oh, and I hate the 'GameStop blah blah' thing at the bottom of the slip cover. I don't have anything against GameStop, but I hate when stuff is printed right on the paper. All said, well worth the extra $20. Pretty nice art book and the figure has some nice heft to it.

    That looks really cool. I was skeptical about this game, but after renting it, I really want to buy it, especially this edition.

    For me it is, for sure. I've started collecting these video game figures, and this one is well made.

    When do people start to realize that it's just a stupid figurine that will most likely get tossed and tucked away in a couple of years or in time.

    I've had mini-Altair there for a few years already, and he's still going strong. Depends on what you like, I guess.

    The UK version of Altair is much better than that US one, although Ezio is much smaller =(

    It's pretty awesome, I might plunk out the money for the black edition as well at some point.

    I love my Ezio figure, but I wish I had the Altair figure as well.

    I went to the store to pick up the white edition, turns out it was only available for pre-orders... oh well, i'm sure the figurine will be sold on its own after a while.

    UK Ezio isnt smaller than the US model its just smaller than the UK Altair model. The US got a crappy Altair model it seems.

    Yeah, looks to me that the UK Ezio is the same as the US one. I just have a low-rent Altair.

    Or you can eBay for the set? There's an art book in there as well.

    You mean, you still didn't get to play the game? Yikes.
