not buying though seems a bit crappy to do another loot chest, just a lazy cash in

[Texas Fire]

No game being released with it, so I probably should have put it in the memorabilia section...I apologize...

[Matt16]

It says out of stock. Has it not been put up for pre order yet or has it sold out already?

[Texas Fire]

It says out of stock. Has it not been put up for pre order yet or has it sold out already?It goes on sell in May...

i would imagine it is not up for pre-order just yet, it only got announced a couple hours ago and the uk site has not even listed it yet

Thanks and thanks

Think I'm getting a bit carried away :lol:

Seems like a cheap attempt to get rid of the leftover ones from the unnumbered edition

[comaamen86]

yeh they prob had chest left over when the limited run sold out 5000 to be precise

[SwiftDeath]

Wait you mean the ultra limited loot chest edition had leftovers? :swoon:

Yeah lol def leftovers but still like this more than other companies solutions to creating collectibles cough*irrational*cough*cough

This thing went on sale today and it sold out in 3 hours. Supposedly they're releasing another wave soon though, so there's still hope if you missed it today. I know I missed it. :banghead:

I think we're selling ours at the very end of the month, or beginning of July. Try to get it from ThinkGeek if you can, though, because I'm sure their shipping price will be better than what it's sounding like we have to charge....

[MortalMonday]

Oh, you're getting it too? Well that's good. I'll probably get it from Treehouse then.

[SwiftDeath]

*Treehouse sells out in 2 hours*

:facepalm:

Nah I'm sure it'll be fine

Hopefully we get a little notice prior ;)

[Matt16]

Got an email from Forbidden Planet that the release date changed to late June. Bit worried now in case they end up not getting any :(

[vhal_x]

They should still be getting it, I knew a few weeks ago that the UK release had changed to late June as I phoned them up to ask :) xx

cheers Val, that's good then, I can stop worrying :)

[CheapAssassin]

Really? I just spoke to one of the other day.. and this customer rep told me they are totally sold out...

I hope they will release it again.

nice touch with the mask

[CheapAssassin]

The mask looks cheap tho... and the prices adi gone up in ebay... the guy who posted the video got 49xx out of 5000. Still hope I will be able to find one without paying the crazy price for it.

[Treehouse_Ryan]

We have about 1600 of these that'll go live soon. Shipping is going to suck, so I'm apologizing in advance.

I was really excited to get one, personally, but I cooled down on it a lot after we got one sent here for photographing.... Not sure if I still want one or not, but I'm sure you guys have already done all your homework.

[MortalMonday]

Sweet! Thanks for the head's up! Please chime in again when they go live if you can!

nice touch with the mask

As I said in the other thread for this, the mask is cheap quality. >.< Would have been a little more tempted if the mask was the same kind of quality as the one that came with the Darksider 2 CE.

I think I can live without this.

[Platfus]

Yeah I wanted this item so much but the content isnt something very extra...

[ingmar1988]

This edition looks very cheap compared to dead space dev edition, and its the same price :(

[Matt16]

The loot chest arrived and as expected its pretty pants!! The chest is the same as the one that came with the game, just with a slightly different paint job. I haven't unwrapped all the other stuff but the mask is dog shit!

Its definitely not worth the money but then again I'm still glad I've got it :lol: I wanted the set and will just ignore my annoyance at it.

[vhal_x]

Yeah, I got mine at the start of July. Was pretty disappointed with it overall, but like you, I'm glad I have it :) xx

[Matt16]

We must both be nuts :lol:

Do you like the loot chest then?
no, not really

Was it good value for money?
not at all

Would you recommend it?
Hell no

Pleased you bought it?
Yup

I is a strange sort :scratch:

[MortalMonday]

So they just released a "second edition" version of this chest.
http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/f497/#tabs

Thoughts?

[Platfus]

Is there a difference?

[MortalMonday]

I really don't know.

[amb6883]

If they threw in the GOY edition it might be worth it at that price. Still would have to think about it though.

[Texas Fire]

Yeah they should have included the game w/it as well...
I'd like one though...:/

TF

[blingaling]

Is there a difference?

There appears to be additional posters of Gaige and Krieg in this one. Everything else looks the same.

[Lemur]

Wait so this is diamond loot chest #2?

[SwiftDeath]

Took me awhile to find it but the only place it seems to say second edition is in the 2nd picture

http://a.tgcdn.net/images/products/additional/large/f497_loot_locker_everythingv2.jpg

That's really bad imo

Should be actually stated in the description somewhere if not in the ruddy title :hammer:

[Cosmic_Link]

Lol "limited" items from Gearbox and 2K! XD

How many millions of these second ed boxes they gonna make? Lol

[SwiftDeath]

How many of the original loot chests do they still have collecting dusts in warehouses? :P

[Platfus]

As I love Borderlands, I hate this "limited" editions. Lol why? Original loot chest is such an awesome pieces. But 53k? Ehm, sorry...thats not limited imho.

[vhal_x]

Pretty shitty if you ask me that the "second edition" comes with two more posters than the fucking first one did xx

[CheapAssassin]

Sigh.. i gotta say im pretty disappointed with this second edition. I bought the first edition, if ONLY I knew there is second edition with extra posters, I wouldn't have spent my money on the first edition! Wasted my money, but I do love Borderlands.. :(

Don't worry just wait on the third edition

It'll actually include a game this time

We promise :v:

I'll go ahead and buy that first ed. off of you.

For some reason I just bought the second ed. (well yesterday before I realized it was a 2nd ed) but I also need the first ed now <_<

So I buy your first ed. off of you, and you use that money to buy the second lol.

But yeah, so sad to see that nothing is limited anymore. No surprise there though.

[MortalMonday]

Guys, it looks like there are 5,000 of these second edition chests.

Wow, are you totally kidding me?

[Platfus]

Hmmm, how much it would cost to ship it from thinkgeek to czech republic, do you have any idea? :D

[CheapAssassin]

o.O Isn't it the same besides that 2 extra posters? Or is the Shift Codes are different too compared to the 2nd edition?

[LyricalOne]

I believe so, everything is the same.
Oh and the certificate I presume is what really differentiates the 1st & 2nd Ed.

I was kidding, unless you are really looking to sell your chest lol.

I have issues with this first/second ed. thing <_<

It's different :(

1st edition is silver box. 2nd edition is brownish box. I got the 2nd edition and is disappointed I missed the first

[CheapAssassin]

Lol.. so they release a second edition but with bronze color (not like i hate bronze just that i prefer silver)? Maybe they wanna make it gold color but I guess profit is more important.

It's different :(

Sorry to hear that buddy.. I surely will come to you if I decide to let it go. :)

If going by the trend. They might release a gold chest?

I guess 1st run was 2500 and 2nd run is another 2500 maybe

[LyricalOne]

Sorry to hear that buddy.. I surely will come to you if I decide to let it go. :)

Haha thanks bud, I appreciate it.

No worries at all, I'm hoping I find a cheap one somewhere as I don't care for the Legendary weapons but just the physical stuff.

Oh well that sucks :(
