By the way, I have only posted this list on two other forums (www.sealedgameheaven.com and www.steelbookhunterz.com), so if you feel the need to repost it anywhere else, in part or in full, then please credit me for the hard work and effort I put into researching these! Thanks!

Actually, it looks like there is no "hanging" version of Catwoman steelbook?

They have finally updated the site, and it is also the "whip" version.

Ok, well that certainly puts a spin on things, especially as I only saw the 'hanging' Catwoman one on there yesterday!

I have edited the initial post to reflect this new information

I love how there isn't a single SteelBook Release for the USA... no, wait that's a lie... I don't love that at all

You Brits always complain that the US gets the better editions... I think you're smoking something

There's still six weeks to go, and so many classic Batman characters not yet covered - Riddler, Harley Quinn, Mad Hatter, Killer Croc, Clayface, Poison Ivy, Mr Freeze, The Scarecrow, Ra's Al Ghul, Bane - There's still a chance that new exclusive SteelBooks will be announced in the coming weeks prior to release

As it stands at the moment, the Two-Face SteelBook appears to be the most common, available from several different retailers. The Catwoman SteelBook is perhaps second most common, with the Joker coming in third. At the moment of writing, the Penguin SteelBook happens to be the only true world exclusive, although that could change in the next few weeks...

This will be the most expensive one game title collection for me this year! That's 6 varieties for me and that doesn't include the Robin cover

A shame really that the GAME exclusive Robin Edition is just DLC and a different cover, and not actually an exclusive SteelBook, especially as the Robin DLC is also available with one of the SteelBooks from a different country

I am wondering whether all this bonus DLC will be made available to buy separately on Xbox Live / PSN? If not, it's pretty shabby that you'd have to buy multiple editions in order to get all of the DLC, or hit eBay for the codes, as we found out last year with the Assassin's Creed Brotherhood releases...

Great job compiling all this info! Thanks Gemini!

I still find all these variants ridiculous and I hope this is not the start of a new trend for CE/LE. Imagine if every game goes in this direction for their CE/LE. Not a good thing
