RE2R CE restocked for a short while a few days before release. They might do that again for canceled/credit card declined situations again. But it's worth checking back to see if they restock every so often.

The RE2 CE came in and out of stock a few times. While this also doesn't help right now, there ended up being extra of these in Japan for RE2. So if you don't mind importing and really just want the figure the same should happen for RE3. Definitely don't bother with scalpers, this won't be as rare as say the RE7 CE.

It went up and sold out while I slept. I feel so deflated...

Gonna try in-store and hope for the best. That's how I got RE2's.

I had my fair share of Collectors Editions in the past and from my experience figurines aren't worth it most of the time. If you want quality you're usually better off buying merchandise separately. This figure looks rather boring to begin with.

Ebay's prices are insane... those scalpers!
There's going to be a japanese version too at the very least.

LOL, what the fuck. Look at them all on eBay already ;(


As for in-store, I was told I couldn't order it because it wasn't in the system yet. C'mon man, CE's are my weakness. Though on the flip side, I still got my monies in my pockets ;)

Also, why is it only for the Xbox One on Gamestop's website? Where's the PS4 CE?
Isn't this almost always the case? Scalpers will always screw over everyone with special editions.

So they're really charging $22 for shipping on release day delivery and offering no way to get in-store-pickup if you ordered online? So stupid. Wish Best Buy got the CE.

GS only actually means they make a limited amount. So always go all in asap. Keep an eye on Wario twitter for restocks.

Okay, I feel silly. I was freaking out last night about it being sold out online completely forgetting that stock is just Gamestop.com's. You can go into any GameStop store and preorder the CE and that store will get it. I did this for RE2's CE, and completely forgot.

Just hopped into my local hole-in-the-wall and got my preorder.

Congrats for the purchase!
I'll cross my fingers in the meanwhile since I'm not from the US.

Do you know anyone who you trust, like a good friend, who lives in the US? They could order for you at a GameStop store and then ship it to you on release. Tho I imagine the post-office would kill them in shipping costs for something so big. It cost me $7 just to ship a game a couple states over...

Sadly, no. I have to use a service that receives orders on the US and then I have to pay them to get the items delivered to my country (the RE2 CE wasn't even available here through the usual video game stores, I had to purchase via ebay for $250)

Ok folks, if you're still looking for the Resident Evil 3 Collector's Edition, then head to your local Gamestop. Some still have them available. I just snagged mine. You'll need to put down $25 minimum.

I wonder if I would be able to put in a preorder today at my local GameStop? This is the only franchise that I still go in for Collector's Edition versions like this anymore. I would like to have this for Xbox since that's what I got the CE version of RE2 for but we'll see I guess

Super bummed there isn't a 'Deluxe Edition' like there was with RE2. Still preordering the standard regardless.

still no news here for Collectors Edition in Europe... all we keep getting is soon... why do I have a feeling it's Devil May Cry 5 Collectors Edition again. Capcom Europe's Communication in regards to this has been lazy and quite frankly crap....The Community Manager has now gone off on Xmas Leave so no news until the new year...

Yes, you can. Physical locations get shipped according to their preorder numbers, so you can head to your local GameStop and preorder one. $25 minimum down, tho this seems to vary from place to place (I've seen $5 and $10).
