A recent retail listing has revealed that the upcoming Mass Effect figurines will include character-specific DLC for the upcoming role-playing game, Mass Effect 3.

One of the best things about the Mas Effect series is the companions you meet along the way. So here is a tier list of all the companions from Mass Effect!
To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

Based on one narratively fitting ending in Mass Effect 3, Prothean squadmate Javik is highly unlikely to return in the next Mass Effect game.
He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.

"Each figure contains different in-game content, exclusive to North American released product."
Cutting out content from the game and releasing it as DLC is dodgy enough, but this sucks even more. Looks like I'll be missing out.
Pass. I'll wait for the "GotY" edition that includes all the missing content.
Kind of sad to see that EA bought up Bioware and essentially abusing DLC with ME.
Wow now I have to buy figurines to get DLC that's probably already on disc. Sweet....
This is really douchey
Now that's rather depressing. It's cool that they have a line of decent-quality 'action figures' (toys, some would say) inline for it, since some people like that, but exclusive ingame content? Now if this is bonus is the equivalent to getting a characters "Loyality Skin" like in Mass Effect 2, early without having to finish their mission to unlock it, that wouldn't be so bad. But if this is going to include content held on the disc that cannot be obtained through ANY other means other than purchasing these figurines, I can't help but feel like I'm being spit on for being a fan.
Was ordering Collectors Edition not enough? Bad enough they force PC players to use Origin, or that they're offering exclusive content to preorders that isn't even found on the more expensive "ultimate fan package" collectors edition of the game.
If these little "bonuses" these toys give isn't at least obtained by shopping, then it truly looks like I'll never experience EVERYTHING the game has to offer because there's no way Im spending probably 30 dollars on some plastic toy that likely wont even stand up right and will be falling over whenever you walk by. Hopefully these freebies will be released in some type of package deal so players can opt to buy just them. Not a big fan of paying for content thats already on the disc, nor is anyone, but it'd be better than being forced to either buy the expensive toy or go without.
