@erd: I think that store got about 12 one, after a week all were gone. Maybe other stores got more.

Ah that explains it- thanks for the reply - do you know if you can still do this in Germany? Pity we in the UK seem to be in the dark ;(

@erd: I'm from Germany. I got mine from GameStop just by preordering it. But I don't know if the people who already preordered it also got it.

@Himiko:
Himiko - are you in the uk - if so where did you get a copy?
I called gamestation and they have no knowledge of the preorder tin.

Does anyone know anything about UK availability?

Perhaps its not being released in the UK as a preorder tin offer.
FACTS:
Gamestop in both Australia and germany (both PAL regions) are taking it up
but only in store,

Help - we want it!

Wow thats pretty fair to those that live in Northern Ireland. There are no gamestations over here so we get left out.

I doubt they do delivery to NI either. I checked out there website and for the PC they have two really bad product pages. Neither says which is the collectors edition or what.

[www.gamestation.co.uk]

They have it listed as the 1 November as well which I dont think is right.

I really want this game, it looks cool.

Kuraudo: Here in the UK Gamestation have the exclusive on this tin pre-order pack. Someone said Play.com have it, theirs is in fact just a version of the game that comes in a tin box with 4 art cards.

Akin: The PC DVD in the picture is the bonus DVD. It's an actual DVD-ROM rather than a video DVD and contains bonus stuff for your PC like wallpapers etc.

Oh, and the idea is that once the game is out you store your retail box inside this tin one. It's looking quite sexy indeed. AFAIK the tin boxes are actually individually numbered for that added "omg collectorz" feel.

Where can you get this Pre-oder tin? Does Gamestop give it to you when you pre-oder?

I'm going to go into game stop today to pick up my Folklore and then I will demand that cool coin for Mario galaxy and this cool item because I reserved all my games for the year about 3 months ago.

Where do the actual discs go? Do they just slide around like the Halo 3 ones?

Man I wish they would start doing the cases like the Perfect Dark Collectors Edition again. I am not to fond of these big ass tin cases.
