Choosing between collector limited editions often means weighing a modern console showpiece against a handheld cartridge. The price gap makes the decision concrete: about USD 195 separates the more expensive set from the lower-priced handheld game. Which one belongs in your collection depends on whether you want a horror centerpiece on a current platform or a niche limited-run handheld piece.
Quick verdict
Take the Halloween The Game Limited Collector's Edition if you want a Survival Horror centerpiece and can accept the wait until the 2026 release. Choose Hime's Quest Limited Run Games x Crunchyroll if you'd rather spend less and pick up an E-rated Action & Adventure handheld game.

Where each product wins
Halloween The Game Limited Collector's Edition
- It's a Collector's Edition with exclusive features and content, giving a modern horror collection a strong focal point.
- It's the more expensive and more substantial purchase, which matters if you want one flagship item rather than a smaller side piece.
- The trade-off is the presale: the game releases 10/06/26 and the rating is still RP - Rating Pending.
Hime's Quest Limited Run Games x Crunchyroll
- It's a much smaller financial ask, leaving more room in your budget for other collector pieces.
- The handheld format and NTSC-U/C region code make it a distinctive addition.
- The catch is condition: both copies have cosmetic flaws, so the outer packaging may not be flawless.
Product notes
Halloween The Game Limited Collector's Edition (PS5)
The main draw here is the license and platform: a Survival Horror collector's set for the Sony PlayStation 5 with Michael Myers in the spotlight. It is a Collector's Edition with exclusive features and content, and it is a presale for a game releasing 10/06/26. That makes it a commitment rather than an impulse buy, and the larger price tag only adds to that. The rating is still RP - Rating Pending, so you're reserving before the content rating has been finalized. If you want a modern horror showpiece and can carry the wait, this is the edition to reserve. If you're not comfortable committing to an unrated presale, the PS5 set is the harder one to recommend.
Hime's Quest Limited Run Games x Crunchyroll (Game Boy Color)
The lower-cost path is Hime's Quest, a sealed E-rated Action & Adventure cartridge for the Nintendo Game Boy Color. The Limited Run Games x Crunchyroll branding makes it an unusual collectible, and the NTSC-U/C region code places it for US/Canada handheld collectors. The limitation is physical condition: both copies have cosmetic flaws, so the outer packaging may not look mint even though the game is sealed. If you collect for the cartridge and the limited-run story, this is an easy addition. If a perfect display box is your priority, the cosmetic-flaw caveat could be a dealbreaker.
Final choice by use case
- A horror collector planning a 2026 showpiece: Halloween The Game Limited Collector's Edition. The wait and the higher price are real, but the survival-horror presentation is exactly what this set is built around.
- A handheld collector who wants a niche, E-rated pick: Hime's Quest Limited Run Games x Crunchyroll. It's the lower-cost, easier-to-add option for a handheld shelf.
- A buyer who wants one substantial collector item: Halloween The Game Limited Collector's Edition. It's the higher-priced, higher-commitment pick.
