That's weird, because it shows it seperate in the unboxing video

Are you talking about the IGN unboxing? The Claptrap edition is PS4 and they never actually open the steelbook. On the table beside the box is the Xbox One version of the game as it would be if you purchased it separately.

I opened the steelbook myself and visually confirmed the game is in the steelbook.

Its possible the people working for sites like amazon are misinformed and some people are going to get an extra copy of the game due to their mistake.

The link posted in this thread, they took out a standard copy of the game, and they opened the steelbook. If their copy was in the steelbook then it was a great touch that they have added in an empty game case to put the game in so the steelbook runs less risk of being damaged.

Sadly, they didn't include an extra copy of the plastic case. All they did was shrink wrap the steelbook, which makes it even more painful that you have to open it if you want the game... or pay for a second copy!

So then the extra case they metioned and handled in the video was just there to represent the copy of the game only, and not actually included? That's lame if thats the situation.

its back in stock on amazon

Not being sold by Amazon though and obviously for higher price.

Strange, several people had cancelled their order there (incl. me who left there total of 5 editions) and they haven't showed back for sell by Amazon for original RRP.

At the end I found the way how to obtain them from GAME which is much easier for me and cheaper as well at the end.

I received one of these today and I have to say I'm highly disppointed with the engineering behind the pegs on the arms, and the joints where the arms slide in to the figure. They're so badly executed that they cause the arms to dangle quite loosely on the figure. You simply can't fasten the arms securely on the figure. The arms, as a consequence, become all but impossible to place in a fixed pose, and they ultimately always end up danglingly low, like limp weiners. On top of that, since they attach so loosely to the figure, the arms are likely to fall off easily.

This is truly inexcusable in a product costing $400.

Worse is that, even though the figure is made using plastic, overall, it's not bad at all.
It's just these damn arms that kill it for me.

Limp weiners heh. How does it limp? Right side of a circle or left side of a circle?

And to add insult to injury, I'm sorry to say that it is NOT a steelbook
