10 Video Game Collector's Editions That Were Total Rip-Offs

10. Metal Gear Solid V - Collectors Edition

The thing that really enticed people about this was the replica of Venom Snake's arm. The final product though, was nothing to cheer about.

In the initial advertising for this collectors edition it said that the Venom Snake replica arm would be a 'half-scale' replica. Venom Snake must have tiny hands then, because what we got was miniscule.

Look, no-one was expecting the replica to be full-size, but it ends up looking like a cheap McDonald's toy and that's a real shame. Rather than being a bad collectors edition, this one is just disappointing because it could have been so much more.

For $100, this is probably one of the least expensive collectors editions on the list, but the pure disappointment of the size and feel of that arm is a feeling that money can't really measure.

Combine all of this with the fact that many people had problems with the DLC and you've got a pretty disappointing package overall.
