5.0 out of 5 stars
Extra P4 Swag <sold separately>, December 17, 2008
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Persona 4: Amazon.com Exclusive Social Link Expansion Pack (Accessory)
It's somewhat unusual for game tie-in extras to actually be SOLD separately, as opposed to being pre-order bonuses or the like. The price tag on this particular set wasn't that far off the price of many new PS2 games either. However, since this was for Megaten bonus gear, I decided to make an exception.
The plush isn't huge, but can more than likely be easily displayed on a shelf/area of your choosing. It seems well-made to my admittedly untrained eye.
The soundtrack is a great addition to the pack-in album that already comes with the game, I don't think anyone will have any complaints with this.
The calendar has some great artwork, including the cast in a lineup with their heights, various concept drawings and more. The actual "calendar" part of it makes reference to in-game occurrences on various dates as well.
The shirt.... well... it's well made. The graphic is extremely large, and well done. But... the thing is just gargantuan. I had the good fortune to be given one of the P4 shirts given to the Gamestop managers at their annual conference. While different in design, it too was HUGE. I was hoping this one might fit a bit better. They're both basically tarps. I'm 6' and over 200lbs. and I routinely wear XL shirts, but these are like blankets on me. The sizing would more accurately be XXL or XXXL. I'm not sure if there was some oversight here, but these are more aptly sized for the in-game demons.
All in all, I was satisfied with my purchase.

Totally worth it, December 10, 2008
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Persona 4: Amazon.com Exclusive Social Link Expansion Pack (Accessory)
For any fan of Persona 4, Atlus has outdone themselves and have given fans the most awesome set of swag $30 can buy. There is a great-looking t-shirt featuring one of the Persona characters in the game, although it is size-XL. The calender features some amazing artwork from the game, not to mention that it includes Japanese holidays as well which I find to be very cool. The soundtrack CD features a whopping 28 tracks that definitely have a nice sound to them. And the little plushy doll that comes with the package is a nice bonus too. Very cute. Overall, a dynamite package that is totally worth it.

Better than expected, December 11, 2008
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Persona 4: Amazon.com Exclusive Social Link Expansion Pack (Accessory)
At first I was skeptical about buying this Social Pack; although being such a huge fan of persona I threw down the cash. After getting a hold of it today; I can say that I am very impressed. The Calendar has some incredible artwork and the plush "Teddi" is well made. I haven't listened to the CD yet; although I have listened to the original CD(which is awesome)that's packed with the game and this one does have more songs. My only complaint is that the Shirt is an Extra Large. I'm a Small so I can't wear it. The shirt's design is very cool, which makes this situation even harder for me. So if you're a fan of persona I say pick this up. Especially since this item has been discontinued and the Ebay prices are sure to be 10 times its worth.
