When World of Warcraft was released for sale, it came as a regular version (basically the game manual and some game CDs) and a special Collector's Edition.

What you get:

  • Large, hard-sided slip-out box with fitted fuzzy holder for all the contents.
  • The full game on CD-ROM and DVD-ROM.
  • "Behind the Scenes" DVD with the game's cut-scenes, 3D concept art, drawings, screen shots, and audio tracks of Blizzard employees discussing in-depth the various elements of the game.
  • 280-page hardcover coffee table book, "The Art of World of Warcraft".
  • Soundtrack CD.
  • Cloth gameworld map with metal clasp.
  • Exclusive in-game pet for every character. Choice of Zergling, Panda Cub, or Mini Diablo.
  • 10-days free for a friend (via voucher with special CD-key).
  • Manual.
  • Blizzard Store pamphlet!

Where do you get it?

The short answer: you can't.

Blizzard made a limited number of copies of the Collector's Edition, and will not make more. They're completely sold out in stores (where it retailed for about $80).

Blizzard also made a CE for the UK, and will likely make them for other markets. It's unknown whether these versions will work on servers in other regions.

Some can be found on Ebay or similar online markets from time to time, but these have largely inflated prices. Also there is no guarantee that they are unused.
