Mists of Pandaria Collector's Edition

This September was my break period where I could save up some money ready for the Christmas rush, so you can imagine I was banging my head on the desk when I read the other day that the new expansion for World of Warcraft was coming out on the 25th September.

It's funny though because I did take a quick look at the release dates and there are few games out that month so I really need to sit down and plan out what I want so I can see when they come out, anyway back to the topic.

So Mists of Pandaria is finally coming out which does not shock me since the Beta is pretty much finished but I was banking on it coming out November/December in time for Christmas. At the time of the announcement there was only the standard edition and the digital collectors edition which is the first time that's ever been done. This edition comes with all the in game content that you would normally get with the collectors edition, anyway next day while I was in work I saw a message saying the collectors would be website only. As you can imagine I was straight onto my phone ordering it, Blizzard make some of the best collectors edition and so far I've had all of them for World of Warcraft except the original game. In fact I need to do a unboxing of them all before Mists of Pandaria comes out, I will add that to the list of things to do this week.

On the right is a picture of the Collector's Edition box which is the same as the others, the box is a giant slevee where you can pull out the inner box which holds all the contents.

But what's made me happy is the in-game content, for the first time we also getting a mount! The Imperial Quilen flying Mount plus the puppy pet as well. Normally the collector editions only have a pet in them but seems Blizzard have decided to add more this time around. Also like normal there are Starcraft 2 Portraits and a new banner sigial and accent for Diablo 3 themed around the new expansion. Anyway check out the full list below to see whats included in the box.

• Copy of the game
• Behind the Scenes DVD & Blu-ray
• Soundtrack (20 tracks)
• Hardback Art Book (208 pages)
• Mousepad (Chen Stormstout Brewmaster Artwork)
• Diablo 3 Banner Sigil & Accent
• Starcraft 2 Battle.net Portraits
• In-game Flying Mount (Imperial Quilen)
• In-game Pet (Lucky Quilen Cub)

Anyway that's it for this post but I cannot wait for September and to get my hands on this expansion. Of course expect a unboxing post when it does arrive and plenty of posts of my tales when I'm playing it but for now have a good one folks.
