Nail on the head, 110 extra dollars should buy a LOT more than that. The book should be hardcover, the acrylic art should be a real figurine, the playing cards are lame, the pins are...pins, there should be a soundtrack or something. There's so much missing from this for such a crazy price.
I bought one. If the game alone is $40, there’s no way the rest of the stuff is worth $110. I really wanted it because I’m such a fan of classic TMNT games, but if I could go back I would stick with the regular edition.
Yeah, let's add up the value of everything in this box (aside from the game) if it were purchased separately at retail: (approximately) Cloth poster $15 Pin set $10 Collectible cards $10 Acrylic diorama: $15 Softcover art book $20 That's only $70 worth of product. (and I'm being generous) Also, the cloth poster would possibly go for less, given it's small size compared to other cloth posters/flags, and the softcover small-sized art book would more likely be around $15 or less on Amazon. So possibly less than $60 worth of value here. Certainly not worth $110 imo. If I were to get one, I would just keep it sealed and flip it later tbh.
Definitely a cool set. IDK that its worth $150 though, that seems like a stretch. With the base game being $40 I'd prob be at like $79.99 - $99.00 tops on this. And this is coming from a huge TMNT fan. I wouldn't necessarily be upset or disappointed if I bought this but $150 is definitely a little bit steep.
Dude I just commented virtually the same thing. 🤙 Radical. It sucks that these were SO overpriced. The typical peeps are already trying to scalp them for way over $200 though and it’s making me wanna pick up that Amazon restock. Wtf is wrong with me.. ugh! 😑
This thing should not cost more than 79.99$ lets be honest, inflation definitely got this one which is sad. Cool trinkets and stuff but not at that price.
It's a sad state when most of the items in that collectors' edition look like something you could pull out of a cereal box or gumball machine back in the day. Might as well have thrown in a decoder ring and a connect-the-dots puzzle in for the hell of it. Outside of the book, companies really know how to capitalize off of nostalgia these days.
That artbook does look awesome! But yeah, I decided way back when to just stick with the $40 version, as much as I wanted the artbook, I just can't justify spending nearly 4x the price of the base game for it.
The problem is these things would be fine purchaseables on their own accord. But because they're tethered to a collection (a near 200 dollars collection!) They instantly become unexcessable to many. Anyway you slice it, there is not $150 in value here, even as a huge TMNT fan.
What I’m worried about is that companies could start making limited editions putting in 90% of stuff you’re not interested, making you pay a mad price for that 10% you really want
I refuse to order stuff like this from Amazon because they ship expensive collectibles in bags and paper like you said. Boxed corners or worse every time. It blows my mind that the biggest online retailer in the world can't figure out how to ship things without damaging them.
Truly thank you for this review! Honestly makes me feel satisfied that I only spent $40 instead $150. As much of a Turtle fan I am the collectors edition just doesn't seem worth spending that much on with what's inside
So glad you did a review of this limited edition. I'm glad that I only pre-ordered the standard edition. What I think Konami should done is release a full sized hardcover edition of the art book and include the game as a package deal for $70 to $80.
I bet that cloth poster is made from the same composite material they make with the new kind of shopping bags that you see in all the big box and grocery stores
At 7:28 in the art book TMNT Turtles In Time Arcade it has a misprint/typo showing the release date as 1981, should be 1991. For $150 they should have better editors, I saw that right a way. 🤣
I love that you open your stuff. I’m the same way. I hate the idea of sealed games and CE’s being a barrier to playing them and/or looking through the CE contents. I’ll be picking my TMNT CE tomorrow.
While not worth it, the poster being on cloth is a plus, because for the dragons lair collectors set, they put it on paper, the folded it about 6-8 times leaving white creases all over it. I was so upset because the dragons lair poster is my favorite video game poster ever. I sold the game set for about the same price I paid for it. It should have been rolled separately.
No offense to those who love it, but the extra 110 dollars is not there in my opinion. They are gouging the crud out of fans. Maybe 50 extra bucks would have been more reasonable and still made them a profit. They made a greedy profit at the current price.
It's crazy how much these companies are charging these days. Gaming had become an expensive hobby. Even the $70 price of the average digital game is steep.
If you pay 40 bucks for the game that means you're paying $110 more for the stuff in the Box it doesn't really look like it's worth it plus they sell that book at chapters for $19.99 and I don't think the rest of the stuff looks like it's worth 90 bucks
For 150$, they could at least include a steel book case for the game and a detailed figure. The Mc Donald's happy meal toys won't cut it for that price lol. The book and poster are ok I guess.
I just got the regular edition for the Switch and am loving it. As somebody who isn't as good at gaming as I once was all the options like God mode and unlimited lives is such a treat this should be the example for all companies of how to do a retro collection it's amazing.
I’ve obsessed over reliving my TMNT childhood over the last year, culminating in this collection. I’ve also spent about two grand on NECA Tmnt figs. :/
Got the standard edition, loving this collection of classic turtles games on the PS4! Collector's edition is over priced a bit. I like the artbook though.
Dude Amazon shipped mine in a brown paper bag too. Dinged the corners and tore the cellophane. Ridiculous. Amazing needs to start offering a premium packaging up charge option if they’re not going to properly pack collectors/limited items.
Yeah, they use to ship everything in boxes. Now they are cutting cost any way they can while still making huge profits. I only order limited editions from Best Buy or Target.
they grabbed you playboy. I think I'll be getting the standard edition when it goes down to $20 on Black Friday. kept waiting for more items to come out of the box for that 150 price tag haha. don't feel too bad though I waited over a year for my castlevania collection from limited run and when it finally arrived recently I was terribly underwhelmed for my 175 purchase. cheapness to the max. I like that poster they gave in your edition as well but that fabric material is such a joke. lord forbid they actually use a nice stock paper and legitimate ink for their commissioned artwork they're making a killing on. plus doesn't the art (and the customer?) deserve a little more respect than that crappy cloth?
@@georgehernandez2156 nah Im good with pachinko maker Konami. These types of collections always go on sale anyway I think they'll be fine. Not like they're not making money at $20 on 30 plus year old games as well which everyone else can emulate anywhere for free already
I got mines this morning. So far I really love the 180pg artbook and that's what sold me, $150 was steep but it's Turtles so I said the hell with it "take my money" plus this is my first collectors edition I got for the Switch, I'm happy with my purchase.
For 150 bucks they should have given you some cool ninja turtles toys or if not full size four and a half inch figures, then maybe smaller figurines of the Turtles, Shredder, April, Splinter, Etc
This is the first collectors edition game I have ever purchased at release. As someone who grew up in the 80’s and with the Turtles, I had to have it. I’m happy with the contents, although its probably not worth $150. On another note, they need to fix the online modes. I know it’s only day 1 of release, but I found them unplayable at the moment
For $150, I'm expecting at least a S.H figuarts-quality turtle figurine XD to be included. But oh well. Just a turtles figurine, the game and an artbook would be good enough for me, for say, $70-80.
You have to take I. To consideration that the box art is all done by Kevin Eastman. The game 40$ the poster 30$ cuz it’s by Kevin Eastman the art book 30$ the pins 5$ each the diorama 20$ and the cards 5$ there’s your money worth
Reviews like this are why I enjoy this channel. One minute, this is garbage or has issues, next minute, joy that something was great. Tell it like it is, unlike other channels that think. everything is great and skimp over obvious flaws/shortcomings.
Appreciate it, i simply cant fake excitement or disappointment. You get who I really am here. I dont say everyone does this but I have seen plenty who skip over flaws that are obvious or just low quality type issues because they feel they have to justify their purchase to feel good about it or something.
Those pins are really nice, but if you don't use pins, they're a waste. I would put them on my bag that I take to conventions. Those tournament cards are pointless. They look well made, but what would anyone ever do with them? They won't even fit in standard, baseball card size sleeve for a trading card binder. At least you can put the acrylic stand on a shelf with other collectables. I would want to cut the clear parts around the turtles closer to the artworks to make it pop a bit more. For $150, they should have done a tighter laser cut on that design.
It's cool but definitely NOT worth $150! No CD, No mini figures. Most of this was paper or plastic filler items. The cloth poster is cool and the box itself but that's about it. This should have been $80 max!
Would love to have that collection don't know where I can pick it up though I'm in Australia we don't seem to get the collection anymore the limited ones I should say But it is a very nice
Thanks for your review. I thought about getting this Limited addition, but felt that the $150 price was too much for what you get. I’m glad I didn’t get it.
if the ps4 version had the whole cartoon (the 1st one ) on Blu-ray and the 1st 3 movies (the new line ones) on UHD Blu-ray as part of package the $150 price wound have been gustfied.
They went for nostalgia price. I bought a limited edition of another game for $90 and I still felt it wasn't much as I like. I has the artbook, stickers, a pin if you bought it from the store, cards if you bought the first run, a cloth. So 3 things, and 2 technically free for $40. I mainly do it to support the company to keep bringing games because the type of genre is so niche.
I appreciate the acrylic display set but it it's such a modern novelty that it takes away from the nostalgic factor of the whole package. Paper pop-out stand as an alternative is impractical but it would've fit that era a little more, and may even reduce the price even if just a little.
The amount of content and special features the strategy guides, promo stuff, the comic book aesthetic, art, original boxes for the games etc in the game is insane and really cool! But for this special edition not worth 150 imo but maybe 100 at most but I'd say 80 realistically. They should have given us a figure and the soundtracks to every game for 150 imo. Nice unboxing man. I'll play with you if I see you on and you're streaming bro. I too got it for switch.😃 Unfortunately I have to wait til next Tuesday to get my collectors edition because I got it from target. But I have a normal copy too like you haha 😄
I wasn’t actually excited for the acrylic standee at all until your video. I think it looks very nice (although, yes, like another person said, it would be nice to have actual figurines instead of flat facsimiles.) The poster’s definitely getting framed and put up on the wall behind my TMNT Arcade1UP cab. Frikkin’ sweet. Also, I paid about $135 for mine, so the value proposition is a little easier to swallow.
Idc what’s in there i saw the size of the box compared to your hand and this would be a hard hell no! 150$ this industry just gets worse and worse but more power to whoever enjoys it and thinks it was worth it… 39.99 standard it is for me.
Lets be real even if all the extra stuff is worth $40 extra which it isn't it's all worth about $20 extra MAX you're still overpaying by MINIMUM $70 which is absolutely ridiculous, collectors editions are now an absolute joke, at least you used to get some nice shelfable figure or model but now what, you get some easy to DIY acrylic model with stickers slapped on it, what a joke.
Not worth it i would have felt good at $100 Great video really enjoyed the unboxing And the unboxing was free lol i just got the standard $40 copy wall mart did me good
Really... thats the question that you framed at the end of the video. Take the Cowabunga Deluxe collection... remove the game and say to yourself... would you pay $110 for this junk? If the book is dope... would you pay $110 for the book? I mean... do you really need pins, an acrylic display, some cloth poster and a fancy box? I mean... the cartridge itself didn't even look different from the $39.99 one, so they didn't even bother to differentiate that one from the one you buy off the shelf. This collectors set is just that... its for collectors that have serious FOMO pangs... that think that if they don't get it now, they will never be able to afford it later. So they get it... and put it on their shelf, and all is right with the world.
The limited edition box art is fantastic. This set looks cool but not worth it for me. I would probably end up putting this stuff in a drawer since I don't have a gameroom or great space to display things right now. I'll get the standard but love the turtles!
I don't care what the poster material is, but it's definitely better then getting posters in limited editions on a paper that destroys print after folding them, so you have an ugly grid or a cross pattern after unfolding. This should be the standard for posters added to LE/CE.
The book was okay, everything else was not for me. The cloth print looked too garish to go on my wall, if it was like an original black white image printed on a 10x8 fine art peper then I'd be interested. For the price I'd be very disappointed.

Why would you pay 150 for the worst version?
The book is the best part. I don’t like this trend of doing acrylic figure cutouts instead of actual action figures or statues. Such a cheap move.
Yeah same here. They’re cool and stuff but not collectors edition worthy
Book looks small and it's not even hardcover tho
💯% true! This should have some damn figures in it for $150 too.
Man, an exclusive figure would be sick. They could have even included a random turtle per box too to make it even more hype.
Nail on the head, 110 extra dollars should buy a LOT more than that. The book should be hardcover, the acrylic art should be a real figurine, the playing cards are lame, the pins are...pins, there should be a soundtrack or something. There's so much missing from this for such a crazy price.
I bought one. If the game alone is $40, there’s no way the rest of the stuff is worth $110. I really wanted it because I’m such a fan of classic TMNT games, but if I could go back I would stick with the regular edition.
Yeah, let's add up the value of everything in this box (aside from the game) if it were purchased separately at retail: (approximately)
Cloth poster $15
Pin set $10
Collectible cards $10
Acrylic diorama: $15
Softcover art book $20
That's only $70 worth of product. (and I'm being generous)
Also, the cloth poster would possibly go for less, given it's small size compared to other cloth posters/flags, and the softcover small-sized art book would more likely be around $15 or less on Amazon.
So possibly less than $60 worth of value here.
Certainly not worth $110 imo.
If I were to get one, I would just keep it sealed and flip it later tbh.
Yeah I seem better special editions than that. $150, That's a rip off
@@ladynikkie I have seen CE that are far better for less then $150 ..

Totally agree one hundo tops
I think $120 if you loved all of it and wanted to frame the cloth and display the acrylic, pins, and cards... I'd top out near $90 though
$80 I might have bit $150 easy pass

It's a blacklight poster homie
$150 was crazy at launch, but watch this go up in price (maybe) once this game is out of print. Japan delisted it recently.
Darn I was hoping my 12 year old would love to have this for a gift but the paperwork says not for kids 12 and under.

$80 - $95 dollars maybe $150 hell no
This should be a $100 TOPS. It could easily be 89.99 even but it’s got that turtles tax.
this is totally not worth $150, its nice, but should have been like $60 or $70
Damn I wouldn't mind getting this but I'm saving up for the Arcade1up NFL BLITZ cab...its a late birthday gift for myself
Considering the game itself isn't even worth $40, $150 for the collectors, nah
I always buy just a copy of the game. I can save the extra money from not buying a collector's edition, & spend it on more games.
I'm beyond glad I got the Limited edition!
For 150 bucks they should have given you some cool ninja turtles toys or if not full size four and a half inch figures, then maybe smaller figurines of the Turtles, Shredder, April, Splinter, Etc

Thanks for your review. I thought about getting this Limited addition, but felt that the $150 price was too much for what you get. I’m glad I didn’t get it.
The acrylic looks neat but could have been better. The art book is nice but not worth $150.
I just watched a video of you dogging this collection set. Then you went and bought it?
Can you take a guy seriously with permanent coom stains on his beard?
@@blackgift5413 lmao you got me with that one. 🤣
I pre-ordered it ... I live in Canada 🇨🇦 ....$199.99 .... for thr price I cancelled it, no thx ...bought the standard edition ...lol
150$ that’s a pretty hefty price tag But I do agree that art book is sweet…
if the ps4 version had the whole cartoon (the 1st one ) on Blu-ray and the 1st 3 movies (the new line ones) on UHD Blu-ray as part of package the $150 price wound have been gustfied.
They put a $50 price tag on the words Limited Edition.🤣🤣🤑🤑
They went for nostalgia price.
I bought a limited edition of another game for $90 and I still felt it wasn't much as I like. I has the artbook, stickers, a pin if you bought it from the store, cards if you bought the first run, a cloth.
So 3 things, and 2 technically free for $40.
I mainly do it to support the company to keep bringing games because the type of genre is so niche.
I thought the box was going to be a lot bigger from the pictures
Don't know if anyone has asked you yet but are you going to that Rammstein tour coming through?
Hows it going man, replying back
I appreciate the acrylic display set but it it's such a modern novelty that it takes away from the nostalgic factor of the whole package.
Paper pop-out stand as an alternative is impractical but it would've fit that era a little more, and may even reduce the price even if just a little.
$150 was supposed to be the scalper price, lol. But without inflation, I can see how this could be $120 or less.
6:57 That Video Game Hand-eye coordination lol Nice catch buddy!
Just got mine, Amazon has them for 85 right now. Had one at my local GameStop and just did a price match.
The amount of content and special features the strategy guides, promo stuff, the comic book aesthetic, art, original boxes for the games etc in the game is insane and really cool! But for this special edition not worth 150 imo but maybe 100 at most but I'd say 80 realistically. They should have given us a figure and the soundtracks to every game for 150 imo. Nice unboxing man. I'll play with you if I see you on and you're streaming bro. I too got it for switch.😃 Unfortunately I have to wait til next Tuesday to get my collectors edition because I got it from target. But I have a normal copy too like you haha 😄
Good assessment. This is an $80-$100 collection.I don't know what that extra $50 is for.
@@jaymethysell5111 it's to fill wallets
Keep saying this. Bayonetta 3 Trinity. Comparable, to a extent, in contents. Price? 89.99
I wasn’t actually excited for the acrylic standee at all until your video. I think it looks very nice (although, yes, like another person said, it would be nice to have actual figurines instead of flat facsimiles.) The poster’s definitely getting framed and put up on the wall behind my TMNT Arcade1UP cab. Frikkin’ sweet. Also, I paid about $135 for mine, so the value proposition is a little easier to swallow.
Book is nice, set seems junky for $150.
Idc what’s in there i saw the size of the box compared to your hand and this would be a hard hell no! 150$ this industry just gets worse and worse but more power to whoever enjoys it and thinks it was worth it… 39.99 standard it is for me.
Mine won't come until 12/31/22!
Just now getting to the 3rd stage on shredders revenge but I still want tmnt cowabunga collection just another spoiled American gamer☹️☹️🎮🎮😁
Buttass excited? Thanks for that new expression!
Lets be real even if all the extra stuff is worth $40 extra which it isn't it's all worth about $20 extra MAX you're still overpaying by MINIMUM $70 which is absolutely ridiculous, collectors editions are now an absolute joke, at least you used to get some nice shelfable figure or model but now what, you get some easy to DIY acrylic model with stickers slapped on it, what a joke.
Now I like the look of everything but the price is to much I would probably pay £75 for it not £145
Not worth it i would have felt good at $100
Great video really enjoyed the unboxing
And the unboxing was free lol i just got the standard $40 copy wall mart did me good
A better value for this set would have been 75 bucks and they could have kept the acrylic set and pins. But I’m a TMNT sucker and spent the 150.
For what you get, I think it should have been $100-120 total. This coming from an owner of the item. Still, VERY cool as you said.
I personally think that acrylic stand looks awesome!!
Really... thats the question that you framed at the end of the video.
Take the Cowabunga Deluxe collection... remove the game and say to yourself... would you pay $110 for this junk?
If the book is dope... would you pay $110 for the book? I mean... do you really need pins, an acrylic display, some cloth poster and a fancy box?
I mean... the cartridge itself didn't even look different from the $39.99 one, so they didn't even bother to differentiate that one from the one you buy off the shelf.
This collectors set is just that... its for collectors that have serious FOMO pangs... that think that if they don't get it now, they will never be able to afford it later. So they get it... and put it on their shelf, and all is right with the world.
The value definitely isn’t there. The poster and book are cool tho.
I got a physical copy for $25 over the Holidays, thats about all I was willing to pay for the experience, and I was a huge TMNT fan growing up.
Thanks for taking one for the team. Gonna skip this collection but will be picking up the stand alone game.
TMNT The Cowabunga Collection is on sale right now for 69.99 on woot. I picked it up, but i expect it to drop even further.
The limited edition box art is fantastic. This set looks cool but not worth it for me. I would probably end up putting this stuff in a drawer since I don't have a gameroom or great space to display things right now. I'll get the standard but love the turtles!
I don't care what the poster material is, but it's definitely better then getting posters in limited editions on a paper that destroys print after folding them, so you have an ugly grid or a cross pattern after unfolding.
This should be the standard for posters added to LE/CE.
$150 is way too much. It should've been $100.
The book was okay, everything else was not for me. The cloth print looked too garish to go on my wall, if it was like an original black white image printed on a 10x8 fine art peper then I'd be interested. For the price I'd be very disappointed.
