Hitman: Absolution Deluxe Professional Edition announced

Who wants a weird cartoony 10" statue of Hitman: Absolution star Agent 47? Anyone? Well, if you think of someone who might, let them know that they can get one buy buying the 'Deluxe Professional Edition' of IO Interactive's murder simulator, unveiled today.

Basically, it's the same as the Professional Edition but with a 10" Agent 47 vinyl statue thrown in too. You get the same hardcover art book, 'making of' DVD and bonus DLC pack of guns. The PE costs $80, a $20 premium, but there's no word yet on how much the DPE will cost.

As with other editions, pre-ordering gets you the standalone Sniper Challenge too. Go on, click this for a closer look at the statue. While you're at it, give this bad boy a bash for our E3 preview.

Hitman: Absolution arrives for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on November 20.

    The guns? They're DLC items. Though the figurine looks like crap and devalues the seriousness of Agent 47.

      I'm talking about the figurine. It's just terrible. They should kill the guy that came up with that. Who even approves that!!! I AM MAD ON THE INTERNET.

        If you liked mini-ninjas maybe it makes sense.

        definitely! I would much prefer a real agent 47 figure, it would be sooooo much cooler.

        They could do an anatomically correct version and call it Agent 69 Hit-It Man

      And the atrocious (and now, infamous) video with the leather-clad Nuns didn't do that already?

    Bring on a Cartoony/Lego Hitman game please. It's been a LONG time since I played a Hitman game, and it'll probably be a while before I get another, but I'd probably give Lego Hitman a shot.

    It greatly amused me as well, but I think it would be better as a bobblehead.

  Why not have the scantily clad female assassins as the figurines? That looks bad

  I assume it's a surplus Dragonball figure repurposed.
