Street Fighter gets a little feminine

So I'm kind of torn on this one. So right now I have a TE and a SE stick for SF4. You can feel the difference between the two, but it's not pronounced. The biggest difference is the general bulk of the TE which makes it feel a bit more stable when it's on your lap. So from the perspective of having a good experience for me and player 2, I'm good.

On the other hand, limited to 1000 but being sold at $10 more than the MSRP of the TE stick does intruige that small bit of collector in me. It's the same voice that convinced me to get the Mega Man 9 press kit (and keep it sealed).

On the third hand, I'm very unsure about that purple color. It feels like if a larger portion of the shell was purple it would look better.

Thoughts? Should I go for one if I can at PAX?

The color is fine, but I think the graphic could have been better executed.

i agree. Rather than using stock graphics and cut/pasting they could've done something way more cohesive.

I can see these going on Ebay for easily twice as much. Anyone out there who wants money will snatch em up in no time.

I'm tempted to buy one for a player 2 stick, but since I just spent a lot on a new big screen, I don't think I can afford it right now. My main is Viper so this would be really nice for me, since she is the most prominent on the artwork.

Weren't these "collector's sticks" supposed to be rare or something. How come I see thousands being made and in different versions? It's like collecting comic books in the 80's and 90's. Unless you get the right one the other versions are worth didly.

Oh well I have the comic con version and the regular one might as well get this one and throw a party for them.

You would think Chun Li would have a bigger presence since she is the most famous of all female SF characters. Oh well, I am a Crimson Viper fan, so no complaints.
