Ni No Kuni Wizard Edition Unboxing

Evening folks,
It's been a while since I did my last unboxing post and in fact I cannot remember where I got up to (quickly checks). Wait what?!? seriously I've only done two unboxing posts, Diablo 3 and Uncharted 3 collectors editions. Wow I am sorry folks I thought I had done a lot more then that, in fact I thought I had only missed the latest new stuff and few old ones.

Wow I really am shocked and I have no idea how I slacked off so badly, well to make it up to you guys here is the Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch Wizards Edition unboxing.

The outer box
If you follow my blog then you know that over the last week I've had a nightmare to get hold of this rare, wait scratch that, super rare collectors edition. Although the funny part is I ended up with two being sent and a third allocated to me, amazing since a few days before I was on pretty much getting nothing sent. Anyway two friends are very happy now and I'm happy to finally have one and all this put behind me. Not had chance to play the game yet but I will be making up for that in a few minutes once I've finished this post, ended my multiplayer day short to give it time.

Companion artwork
So as you can see in the post above is the outer box,  plus to the right is the edges of the box. I love how much detail has gone into the artwork around it. The only thing I don't like what the fact the cardboard is very thin compared to normal, every time I open the box I worry I might damage it. Although to be fair in their defense it's not like the box is really important unless you are a collector.

Anyway onto what was in the box, the contents of the Wizard edition was of course a copy of the game. Plus a DLC code for two gold companion characters, Golden Mite and Golden Drongo. I have no idea what's so important about them being golden other then they look cool. In fact before I continue writing this post I'm going to go look that up, think it might be good to know. Ok I've just spent five minutes looking and no information yet, so if anyone does know just drop a comment below. So back to the unboxing and check out the below picture which shows the box finally opened.

Contents
I will mention that was already opened before I took the pictures and is why there is no wrappings etc. Anyway as you can see is Mr Drippy plushie and the Wizard book, the two main items that make this collectors edition. The plushie is quite soft and well made, I was bit worried when I first opened the box since that was thin and flimsy that the rest of the stuff would be cheaply made but I was wrong.


The thing that made this edition special for me was the Wizard book, the detail gone into it was amazing, breath taking even. As you will see in the pictures above and below they have gone into major detail with it, the whole book is done like a walk through guide. Dedicated sections for casting spells, what monsters you might encounter with detailed information plus a huge section just dedicated to stories. Every page is beautiful illustrated and the cover is a premium hardback, this book as made the Wizard edition worth every penny in my eyes. I wish publishers take notice and make more stuff like this.







I will be spending a few hours reading it through in the week but right now the game is calling and I think it's time to give it a bash. So on this note I will love and leave you folks, hope you enjoyed this unboxing and I will make it my mission to get another one by the end of the week.
