How's this for a special edition? Bethesda has announced the Panzerhund Edition of Wolfenstein: The New Order. This special edition will run you $100 (USD), will be made available on May 20, and will not include the game.

This Panzerhund Edition, limited to 5,000 units worldwide, comes packaged in a vintage footlocker-style box, each with an individually stamped number plate (approximately 20" x 10.5" x 8.5"), that includes the following items:

- An 8 inch fully articulated hand-painted Panzerhund statue and base
- Classified folder containing salvaged secret war documents including maps, case files, letters, blueprints and an x-ray
- A set of 14 full-color ‘vintage’ postcards from Wolfenstein’s alternate 1960’s, bound in a display book
- Three embroidered patches
- Custom replica dog tags
- An exclusive Steelbook case to house your copy of the game

Yes, the game itself is not included in this offer. Instead, Bethesda will ship you this special edition and still allow you to pick up your game from your local retailer at your leisure. So, it will be $100 for this plus another $60 for the game upon release. The good thing about this is that this allows for a worldwide distribution of the special edition without issue.

You can pre-order this limited special edition from the Bethesda store.
