Once again Treehouse Brand Stores and Bethesda have sent us another edition for unboxing and review: Wolfenstein The New Order Panzerhund Edition. This edition is of the high quality we’ve come to expect from Treehouse: packed extremely well for shipping, the edition itself comes in a very high quality box with great attention to detail, and externally sealed with a visible number plate. Inside the box is a host of well made items including an exclusive G2 SteelBook and a Panzerhund model that comes hand painted with 30 points of articulation (I counted after the unboxing).
Shipping on May 20th and Limited to only 5,000 units. Astonishingly this is still available (at least right now). Sold exclusively through the Bethesda Softworks online store at a price of $100.
