Gearheads, the time has come to drop everything and put in your pre-order for the exclusive Amazon.com Gears of War 2 bundle with full-size (non-working) Lancer replica. The bundle costs $140 or there's the option of taking the Limited Edition of the game with it for an extra $10. Go forth COGs, daddy Clifford needs a new house on the Riviera.

[Thanks, Andrew and Nate!]

Too much.

jimbo @ Aug 8th 2008 1:31AM

FULL-SIZE???

That's fucking awesome. I thought i was smaller, in which case I would agree that it is too expensive. But for a full-size replica, that is AWESOME.

If you think that to much, look at the $752 one that they are making. This one atleast has the game. I will be preordering when my mom gets home. (No credit card with me) :(

I have to say that this is one of the cooler items ever available as a special edition. I wont be buying it of course, mostly because my future wife thinks I have enough useless crap laying about the house.

sicsided @ Aug 8th 2008 1:05AM

better make sure the future doesn't have one more useless piece of crap around the house also....

riggs @ Aug 8th 2008 1:07AM

my future wife told me if i didnt get this she would murder me in my sleep, different strokes i guess.

Wiinterfang @ Aug 8th 2008 1:18AM

Then you should leave her..immediately.

samfish @ Aug 8th 2008 1:27AM

Probably not something you'd want your future kids playing with, either.

Marty @ Aug 8th 2008 2:17AM

If you're sitting there in the dark, hunched over your TV, and playing game where you're cutting people up with chainsaw-mounted rifles, I don't really think you're immediately worried about any future children you might have on the way. :P

I know what you mean,

First thought was "this is awesome im totally getting this", followed shortly by "wait i have to keep my master chief helmet in the closet because its tacky and doesn't fit in my entertainment unit and there is no way may girlfriend will allow this to sit on my coffee table"

Oh well special edition it is.

Smoke_Dawg_187 @ Aug 8th 2008 1:02AM

I will be getting this item without a doubt. Thank god I have disposable income.

religiousjedi @ Aug 8th 2008 1:04AM

Pfft...I can make a functioning one by duct taping a chainsaw and rifle together...

:P

Abuzar Baloach @ Aug 8th 2008 7:53AM

Yup, and an SKS only costs around 200.

FSK405K @ Aug 8th 2008 12:08PM

I would buy it only if it did have a toy-like chainsaw blade running through it, or a real one, of course.

caramelzappa @ Aug 8th 2008 1:08AM

So you pay $100 for a plastic toy?

A badass toy, but still. I'll be buying the cheapest version of the game.

deaftly @ Aug 8th 2008 11:29AM

Its more like $80 but it looks to be pretty decent quality.

msh_hitman @ Aug 8th 2008 1:12AM

Wow. This would go sweet with my Halo helmet lol Too bad I don't have that kind of many to spend right now.

Smoke_Dawg_187 @ Aug 8th 2008 1:06AM

Sounds great! Do you take Paypal?

I'll get one from you if you hit the sweet spot of $99.

NukeAssault @ Aug 8th 2008 1:11AM

What do you think people... This or the Fallout 3 Survival Edition. I think id rather get this. =P

GuardedMarman @ Aug 8th 2008 1:17AM

Fallout for me.

AoE @ Aug 8th 2008 1:09PM

Fallout for sure.

tamanchama @ Aug 9th 2008 1:16AM

how bout both? thats what i plan to do

NukeAssault @ Aug 9th 2008 12:39PM

I was thinking both... and i could afford it. Its still alot of money though. =P

&rew @ Aug 8th 2008 1:13AM

Combine this with the Halo 3 helmet for hours of fun... and hours of waiting at airport security.

PS36Wii Fanboy @ Aug 8th 2008 1:44AM

Let's see Cat wearing Mark IV Helmet: Priceless, Cat wearing Mark IV Helmet AND like Cole train's Lancer...Uber.

mikey @ Aug 8th 2008 1:39AM

Amazon.ca doesn't have it up. Does that mean its Amazon.com exclusive only. Cause i'd like to buy this for my friends birthday.

Jesse Vela @ Aug 8th 2008 4:16AM

it means you should move to America.

arrrgh @ Aug 8th 2008 2:33PM

yeah...move to a military state...that's....good

why not the LS2LS7? @ Aug 8th 2008 1:43AM

Selling this without even the limited edition of the game is ballsy.

Vcize @ Aug 8th 2008 2:42AM

They have two bundles, one with the limited edition and one with the regular edition.

why not the LS2LS7? @ Aug 8th 2008 2:59AM

Yeah, that's what I said. You pay $140 and you still don't even get the limited edition. You have to pay a separate price which includes the extra $10 for the limited edition of the game.

Ballsy.

At least the Halo 3 cat helmet came with not only the limited edition of the game, but another disc of Halo 3 media.

Vcize @ Aug 8th 2008 10:31AM

So you're saying that if they released another version of the Halo 3 Legendary edition that cost $10 cheaper and left out that "Essentials" DVD that no one cared about you would have been upset?

Options.

$150 for the LE bundle, or if you don't care about the Tin and artbook, you're not forced to pay for it and can instead pay $140 for the regular bundle.
