I just edited my post to make this clearer. The US-Collector's does not come with the final hours edition. It's a separate Edition.

Get the Amazon Exclusive "Final Hours Edition," plus access to the Scavenger Hunt
Pre-order Tomb Raider and receive the Amazon exclusive Final Hours Edition, which comes with an exclusive Art Book, In-Game Skin for Lara and a digital copy of Geoff Keighley's, "The Final Hours of Tomb Raider" for the Kindle Fire. The art book will come in the product packaging. Codes to access the digital bonus offers will be e-mailed to you within two business days of your order shipment. Offer valid when shipped and sold by Amazon.com, while supplies last. You will also receive a code for the pre-order scavenger hunt to unlock DLC items and a chance to win prizes. Offers valid on all existing pre-orders. Offers limited to one per customer. Please read the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live terms of use.

So all amazon preorders, including those of the collectors edition will also receive the final hours edition

As far as I can tell, if you only buy the game once, it is the best edition to purchase

hm, I thought it's just for people who pre-order the standard version. Would you mind messaging Amazon?

Edit: I would definitely swap my pre-order if the CE includes the Final Hour Edition.

I was going to get it from EB, but I might change to Amazon due to the price.

I'm assuming you're getting the PS3 version. It'd be 360 for me so I'm a bit concerned about whether the US version of the game will be region free.

As for pricing:

Amazon US $116 incl expedited shipping incl final hours pack (get badges, no pouch)
Amazon UK $98 incl standard shipping incl secret bonus??? (get pouch, no badges, no lithograph)

Would be nice to know what this secret bonus is...

She'd get around a bit then, dirty mare haha.

It could be a steel as there isn't one for the UK which is strange, all game have is that crappy fast climb upgrade and tomb challenge.
