So it looks like Crapcom is trying to get in on the market of expensive special editions too. They announced an $8,600.00 USD special edition that comes with a wearable version of Dante's leather jacket.

Or for slightly less, you can get the Nero one for $7176 and the one for V for $5,741.

Why not sell it with a personalized motorcycle or small car for that price instead?

NOT worth it. If you have a spare 9K to burn on this, then you have WAY too much disposable income for better things.

Would you shell out that much for a special edition?

I don't see any sources for that article... so I'm calling bs until proven otherwise...
Otherwise, no, I wouldn't pay 9k for a coat. Probably wouldn't pay 900.

If you find Kotaku unreliable, it's on Capcom's own website as well.

I'd buy it if I really loved the franchise and wanted to support the devs. That and if I had so much money that if I dropped 9k$ while walking I wouldn't bother bend down to pick it up.

if only actual (software)devs saw any significant pay raise from that lil arrangement. not to say the clothing devs won't, but all that extra dough is almost undoubtedly gonna be lining the pockets of the executives. . .so no, even then (the criteria you mentioned above) i would not fork over that kind of money.

If we were talking about 8,600 yen then it would be very tentative, but in USD... hmm... I know I can live a whole year without working with less than $8600...

Is it worth it to buy anything collectors pay ridiculous sums for? It is if it makes you feel good about it. Other jealous collectors not being able to afford it and whining should only make it sweeter for you.

Honestly I never cared about anything enough to wear something related on me. No band, movie, game, cause etc. is really worth wearing on me.

Tailoring your own jacket will be cheaper.

If you look at the photos, one of the cheaper ones is even worse, you get a jacket that's missing an arm.

Personally I think that Nero jacket looks the best, but there's no way in the history of Devil's crying that it's worth a purchase, and you'd probably feel awkward wearing it out in public.

That one was a bit more expensive. Also makes that 8600 USD look like small change.

Add of course, there was this one:

And apparently someone bought it for real.

And the Thriller jacket makes those cars look like small change:

Why are people assuming anyone would pay that much just to have a jacket that looks like that and not to have an official collectable item to collect dust on some shelf. If you pay a tailor to make one, you get something you can use in your cosplay, nothing of any greater collectable value.

And I think you misspelled the 'Uranus Gas' in the poll - unless it was on purpose.

No, it was an accident. I was 76.92% asleep when I made this topic.

Any way I can ask a mod to adjust it for me since we can't seem to edit polls?

based on the one the game’s motion actor wore.

Excuse me? Based on the one the game's motion actor wore?! If I'm shelling out daddy's hedgefund money I'd better have the exact one he wore, unwashed, all sweat and that motion-capture tech intact D:<

Jokes side, I probably would buy it if I was Midas or something and could just make wealth. I'm kind of impressed by how good they look. Like I wouldn't even mind wearing it, so kudos to them because how often is an obvious cashgrab not tacky?

I'm not trying to be mean or anything but this is pretty much what would happen if you tried to wear one of those in real life :P

They will sell a couple of these at most, but the real profit for Capcom is all the free advertising that it's getting for the game. And it obviously works, since there's a thread in every gaming community.
