Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Physical Editions, Coveted Miniature Terrarium Revealed | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Konami has now opened pre-orders for physical editions of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, although not all are created equal. In Europe and the UK, the Deluxe Edition (pictured above) is on offer, whereas residents of the Americas can pick between a day one Tactical Edition (which includes additional digital goodies) or the much-coveted Collector's Edition, which comes with, amongst other things, a miniature terrarium commemorating that time Naked Snake's backpack got stuck in a tree.

The UK/EU Deluxe Edition comes with the game, steelbook case, FOX patch, "!" sticker, and character art. It's hard not to be a little envious of what is on offer over the pond, though, as the $200 Collector's Edition available in the Americas comes with the game, a collector's box, FOX patch, HALO jump patch, and a lanyard replicating the one Snake uses to disguise himself as a scientist. Saving the best for last, behold the majesty of the miniature terrarium, which depicts that immortal moment at the beginning of Virtuous Mission, where Snake is taught how to climb a tree via Codec:

The good news is that Konami confirmed a Collector's Edition is being planned for EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) markets. The bad is that the firm says it will differ from the American offering and thus risks potentially not including the miniature terrarium, which is our hearts' most fervent desire.
