That's because it is. He has the very beautiful and rare "preorder launch kit" for AC3 which came with a wooden box full of empty assassin creed 3 steelbooks. I believe this kit was only give out to certain retailers (Gamestop?) and I think it was numbered. Really insane huh? A damn preorder kit full of empty steelbooks! limited and numbered! Who would've thought...

I don't collect steelbooks but that wooden box is beautiful. Would love to have that kit.

Just to avoid any confusion, the box is made out of cardboard. Also I can't find any numbers, but it is exclusive to Gamestop. :p
I've seen this go on ebay really cheap a few times so now's the time to get it if there's cash to spare.

The silver box is the AC1 press kit and the reddish-brown box is the AC2 launch kit from Gamestop.

I tried taking pics of the rest of my collection but the results were poor due to poor lighting. Eventually I'll post the rest of my AC collection, Fallout, and misc. Thanks for looking everyone!!!

Only issued to GameStop stores. They're not numbered, but you can be sure that they may as well have been. They're not easy to come by, especially in mint/complete condition.

This is because most of these kits were parted out or destroyed. The steelbooks in the case were gifts for staff members. Once each staff member got his stellbook, the faux-wood case would either be given away or trashed. The kits also come with mini flags and a deluxe flag poster. Again, the mini flgas abd poster would either be given away, displayed in-store, or tossed.

I myself am lucky enough to have a complete example. I treasure it greatly.

Sorry for the late reply. Just found out that all the FONV lithos were sold out. Ebay seller is called sarowfloww. listing link. Bought mine for about $19.

How did you find out that there are 400 crows bottles? I keep hearing all kinds of numbers!? :p

They had it for sale at the Irrational Store. It's sold out now and completely off the site. When it was there though, it had info on the bottles; including the edition size. It very clearly and explicitly said that there are only 400 bottles in existence. They made sure to explain that the bottles that they had for sale were the few that were left over from the original print run. They must have only had a handful available 'cause they sold out pretty fast despite the hefty price tag.

This was hiding in my closet! Not sure what to do with this... haven't played Uncharted 3... yet.





Still looking for the Ubiworkshop giclee version!



Sorry none of these are CEs, but when AC3 comes out I'm sure we'll all be adding them to our collections!
Thanks for looking!

Small update.



I can't say for certain, but I think #1 is promo stuff for X-Com. The rest are common stuff. :p

Thanks for looking!

Very nice!

I see you got the signed skyrim soundtrack - AWESOME.

I was very impressed with that - I have it too and I was so excited when I got it.

Is that a Starcraft figure?!
