Long awaited Bioshock Infinite has given some details about its tempting Collector's Edition, and it's a big'un. 9 and-a-half inches to be exact.

That's right, a 9 and-a-half inch Collector's Edition statue, called the 'Songbird Statue', is the centrepiece of this special edition, which also comes in two forms. The Ultimate Edition includes the awesome statue and the following:

• A 3-inch baby version keychain of the sold-out Murder of Crows vigor bottle replica.
• A 5 x 7-inch lithograph by Jorge Lacera.
• A 25 millimeter, resin-cast Handyman miniature from the upcoming BioShock Infinite board game by Plaid Hat Games, makers of Summoner Wars.
• A mini art book, full of BioShock Infinite concept art and commentary, with a hand-distressed cover.
• Various digital goodies: exclusive in-game gear, a digital soundtrack, and platform specific downloadable content (Avatar costumes for Xbox 360, and Themes for PC and PlayStation 3).

Whereas the lesser Premium Edition includes all of the above, except the statue. Irrational also state that "for the true nerds in the audience, the Songbird statue, the Murder of Crows keychain, and the Handyman all come in separate custom packaging."

I've always loved fancy Collector's Editions, it's just a shame that I never seem to have enough money to purchase any. Maybe this will be my first. This limited supply deal will begin pre-orders on Monday 22nd October.
