Aliens: Colonial Marines Collector's Edition and Pre-Order Bonuses Revealed

News
Twitter facebook googlebuzz

We all know that Aliens: Colonial Marines has been delayed until next year, which makes this sweet Collector's Edition all the more painful to behold.  The highlight of the CE is the bad-ass resin Powerlaoder-squishing-a-xenomorph statue. I still don't understand how there's not a Powerloader in every garage in America, you know, for gardening and stuff. You can see all the included items in the collector's edition after the break.

Collector’s Edition*

  • High Quality Resin Powerloader Figurine in Limited Edition Xeno Hive Box
  • Four Playable Movie Characters
    • Players will be able to fight for their squad’s survival and confront hordes of enemies as the original ALIENS film icons Private Hudson, Corporal Hicks, Private Drake and Sergeant Apone.
  • Additional Marines Character Customization Options
  • Ripley’s Flamethrower
  • Exclusive Multiplayer Weapons
    • Sonic Electronic Ball Breakers
    • Phase Plasma Rifle
  • Exclusive Game Level
    • USCM Academy Firing Range
  • USCM Dossier
    • Mission Brief
    • USS Sephora Schematic
    • Recruitment Card
    • LV-426 Recon Photo
    • USCM Iron-on Badges
    • USCM Graduation Certificate

That's a lot of swag! The Aliens: Colonial Marines Collector's Edition will cost you $99.99, which is way cheaper than a real Powerloader. You can get a better view of all the included items from the image at the bottom of the page.

What if you don't want to blow a hundred bucks on a Collector's Edition because you don't like toys? Hey, just because you're dead inside doesn't mean you have to miss out on all the fun. Gamestop has a pre-order bonus for you! (Is it just me, or is Gamestop getting a lot of pre-order exclusives, lately?) You can still get the classic Marine skins from the Aliens movie, along with Ripley's Flamethrower. No indication on if you can duct tape it to a M41-A Pulse Rifle.

Oh wait, judging from that pic, that is a flamethrower duct taped to a pulse rifle. Righteous.

What? No Vasquez?

And is there a survival mode... maybe to protect Lieutenant Gorman as he lies in med lab with a concussion.

Man oh man, $100 isn't bad at all for a collectors edition. I'm pretty darn tempted to pre-order this.
