Well I just picked up my copy of Guild Wars Factions Collectors Edition.. and I figured everyone would want to see the contents. It includes a copy of the pre-order box with it, I'll be putting that one eBay later to sell, as it has extra goodies and in-game items with it.

Note: The yellow box cutter is mine

lol

Anyway, enjoy...

The Factions: CE Box!

There is a two sided poster which is also a MAP of the whole game:

The other side of the Poster, Sorry about the whitetack, couldn't be asked to take it off:

And the rest, the mousemat is shiny and looks cool:

Calendar Apirl (Example):

The Art Book is 124 Pages Long. New pictures as requested...

Mousemat:

The Ritulist Wall Cloth (Its pretty small the way, ONLY A3 in size!):

The Stickers (Factions Logo and The Girl), both are reuseable! Stickers in use, sorry I can't get them into focus:

And lastly, Art box page examples:

Nope

It's was released at the same time, if very limited supply. I went to 20 different stores in Manchester and find this last remaining copy by luck.

Thanks, the map is too large to scan, but it shows all the towns locations, there already maps of Cathan online here on the forums anyhow.

Wheres the art book with all the concept areas, monsters, & armor pics? That's the REAL reason I'm getting mine, considering it is a week long wait here in the USA.

/da bumpage

Since people are still waiting for their CE, I'm at work for the next 6 hours, but I can take pictures of anything more clearly upon request. I will be taking pictures and posting them later of the following:

- The CE Box! Its funny I haven't take a picture of it yet... lol
- Some pages of the art box
- The mousepad in clear view
- The Rit Wall Cloth (Its not that fancy)
- The stickers in use (The above picture is fizzy)
- The other side of the poster (But hey the map is more important)

The wall map only shows where outposts and missions are, nothing else, and since most places are locked I won't be scanning it or anything, so don't ask.

If you guys really want the entire map, remember that Anet published a guidebook and this one's actually worth it, because it's not some 3rd party.. I'm actually thinking about buying it.. the map is most likely the same thing and it also includes a lot of art.. just no extra goodies and the dances..

But as of now, I'm really angry with Anet.. i wanted the CE; didn't find a copy and bought the standard.. I hadn't opened it yet until around the 29th, where the preorder time was supposed to end.. and the next day, Anet says the time's extended to the 8th! So I could have kept it and kept looking for a copy of the CE and returned the standard if I had found a copy.. this is so frustrating, but i guess it's standard again for me..

oh woe is me.

EDIT: Hey, RTS could you add a pic of the RIT cloth? Many thanks.
Oh, and how many pages is the artbook?

Don't worry, soon as I'm hope I'll get the following:

- The CE Box! Its funny I haven't take a picture of it yet... lol
- Some pages of the art box
- The mousepad in clear view
- The Rit Wall Cloth (Its not that fancy)
- The stickers in use (The above picture is fizzy
- The other side of the poster (But hey the map is more important)

Plus any other requests people have, but I'm not taking anymore then 2 pages of the art box, its pretty massive, but not sure how many pages off hand.

I'll check later ^_^

Yeah, the art book is great

I got my copy of the CE from amazon.co.uk and didn't realise there were shortages until after it had arrived... it's worth waiting for imo

I just called the EB Games I preordered from and they have no idea whether or when it's coming, and said to call again tomorrow

.

Then I called the EB Games/Gamestop customer service hotline and the guy who spoke to me said that they *should* recieve it tomorrow if I preordered. I hope he's right :| otherwise I'm cancelling and trying to get it from somewhere else.
