Call of Duty Black Ops II Care Package Edition (PS3/Xbox 360) (Activision)

The Care Package edition will retail for about $180 (USD) and includes everything from the Hardened Edition except it looks to come in a massive crate to house all the content along with a remote controlled quad-copter based on the  “MD-27 Dragonfire Drone”.
