Can't wait to get your hands on the Wrath Collector's Edition box to see what shiny shiny lies within? We've all seen
the list of what's included, but now you can watch it for yourselves. Somehow reader Havok of Norway got his hands on the box early and shot a 2 minute video opening it and exploring each element inside. Start about 30 seconds in to avoid some shaky camera set up.
And check back with WoW Insider. We are giving away more Wrath CE boxes as part of our Countdown to Wrath Giveaway!
EDIT: Mysteriously, the video has been taken down off YouTube by the user. I guess we'll have to wait until Thursday to get a look at the CE.Tags: collectors-edition, havok

Oh man...seeing all the stuff unpacked is sick!! Can't wait til I get my CE from amazon on the 13th n unpack it myself

Does anyone know if the tcg cards in the ce have the cool ingame items attached? Such as the spectral tiger and the pet food.
Evi Nov 8th 2008 1:18PM
Probably. The special cards are inserted into the deck randomly, so I don't see why not.
ibcfreak Nov 8th 2008 1:22PM
thats a good question...I imagine that they are just random decks picked by bliz and have just as much of a chance to have an uber card like a spectral tiger or what have you as if you went to the store n bought a pack off the shelves there...no guarantees...but still a chance

LOL....I love how he didn't clean up the dirty clothes. That's one reason I haven't sent in a WoWSpace entry, would take me too long to clean up my desk. :(
Evi Nov 8th 2008 1:17PM
Come to think of it, we haven't seen a WoWSpace in a while. Why not?
niko Nov 8th 2008 2:06PM
Evi,
I saw before the site redesign that it appears they retired the column...
... and Barrens Chat appears to have dropped off the planet as well (perhaps to our benefit)
It's too bad, i thoroughly enjoyed the WoWSpace of the week. I'd also enjoy seeing UI of the week as well :D
Evi Nov 8th 2008 11:39PM
Niko: Thanks for the info. I enjoyed WoWSpaces immensely. I hope they bring it back. I missed any messages about it being "retired". :(

Interesting. I can't wait to get mine.
Rene Nov 8th 2008 1:22PM
Would someone explain to me what's so special about this collector's edition? I mean yeah, there's a mouse pad and other stuff in there, but does that really justify the price? Eventually it's the same expansion. And even more than that: is it really so special that it's necessary to make a video about it?
ibcfreak Nov 8th 2008 1:25PM
The extra $20 you spend on the CE is probably cause of the extra stuff...who woulda thought that!? That behind the scens dvd, the sound track, the 2 booster decks, mouse pad, and the art book you get are definitely worth more than $20 imo and I would go as far as saying that if you bought the soundtrack (for example) by itself...you would spend $20 anyways...so its definitely worth it if you like the art and want to know how it was designed...
Chris Anthony Nov 8th 2008 6:21PM
Rene, ibcfreak has the right of it. There is more to World of Warcraft than what appears on the screen, and some of us are willing to pay a premium to have access to the extras.

Interesting, I liked the old carrier for the Games though, Big box :)
Bortobob Nov 9th 2008 12:51AM
I bet he illegally downloaded that box... In fact, I'm sure.
frzamonkey Nov 8th 2008 1:34PM
the booster decks are exactly the same in every box.
they are starter decks, with simplified text on the cards to make learning how to play the game a bit easier.

I could say, "Oh how nice!" or, "sweet!" but that would be lying.
Hate him.
HAAATE HIM!!!
:)
svenhoek Nov 8th 2008 1:37PM
Yep thats it. Im officially going to put myself in a drug induced coma for a few days. See you guys on wed night!
svenhoek Nov 8th 2008 1:41PM
Sorry to double post
I would like for him to actually open the art book, but hell with how much I read this site, I guess it would be nice to be a little surprised. :)
