Capcom Crams Figures And Anime Inside Street Fighter IV Collector’s Edition

When publishers say “Collector’s Edition” they usually mean a metal case, some kind of special downloadable content, and a soundtrack CD. Capcom is raising our expectations of what a Collector’s Edition can be today with their Street Fighter IV Collector’s Edition. This package contains two figures one of fan favorite Ryu and one of newcomer Crimson Viper set in Chun Li’s stage, a comic book mini strategy guide focusing on the four new characters, a bonus disc with the Street Fighter IV anime film, and exclusive downloadable content. Somewhere in there is a copy of Street Fighter IV too for the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3.

That’s a lot of Street Fighter stuff. Some awesome Street Fighter IV stuff, but as of this second this Street Fighter IV Collector’s Edition has only been announced for Europe. Chances are we will see something similar in North America since Capcom plans to release a Collector’s Edition of Street Fighter IV here too. I wonder what the chances are of getting some of the awesome goodies inside the Biohazard 5 Collector’s Edition in North America’s Resident Evil 5 Collector’s Edition…
