While a fair portion of video game publishers just like to throw an artbook, soundtrack or something along those lines and call it a special edition, it is always exciting for me when you see a company throw something themed together in their collection. For their upcoming release of Wolfenstein: The New Order, Bethesda Softworks have put together a special Panzerhund Edition that will be available via their official online store for $100.00 while stocks last.
Limited to 5,000 units worldwide, you will receive a vintage footlocker-style box, each with an individually stamped number plate (approximately 20″ x 10.5″ x 8.5″), that includes the following goodies:
- An 8 inch fully articulated hand-painted Panzerhund statue and base
- Classified folder containing salvaged secret war documents including maps, case files, letters, blueprints and an x-ray
- A set of 14 full-color ‘vintage’ postcards from Wolfenstein’s alternate 1960’s, bound in a display book
- Three embroidered patches
- Custom replica dog tags
- An exclusive Steelbook case to house your copy of the game
The one catch of this collection is that it doesn’t actually include the game, requiring a separate purchase on either the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox360, Xbox One or PC platforms.
