I've got Colelctor's Edition reserved with Amazon. I think the wings are a nice pack in, Blizzard's art books are always nice, the soundtrack sounds promising so far, and the USB thing will make a great conversation peice for my office. Sometimes when people find out you like the same games they do, it turns ito a great icebreaker.
Also, unlimited dyes are nice. One of my biggest pet peeves with modern RPGs, is that if you use the best gear you have found statistically, even if the models from different sets are designed to work well together, the colors usualy aren't So you usuall end up looking ridiculuos 90% of the time. So infinite free dyes in two unique color options fixes that problem.
The making of video, I really don't care about. I'll probably eventually watch it, but it will be a while. It's been such a long development cycle that I'm going to be glad development is over and the game is out. Revisiting that phase of the game isn't soemthing I'm going to want to do for a long time. ROFL!
All in all, I think it's a nice selection of pack-ins, worth the money.
No I won't take it, I'm not much of a collectionneur and the goodies you get will most probably get lost over time.
The only thing I'd like is the artbook, I'd pay a 80$ version for artbook + game but not 100$. I totally understand why some people do, if they take care of their CE that's good, if you are like me and don't take care of boxes etc that's more questionable though.
The shiny box is one thing, if you have an annual pass, it is actually quite the deal.
Diablo 3 - $60
Soundtrack - $15
Soulstone USB - $20 could be more since its custom
Diablo 2/Lod - $20
Custome USB holder - $10
Artbook - I'll estimate by ScII's $55.99 ( ya no kidding source: http://www.amazon.co...c/dp/B003XSYR8M )
4 Free months of WoW - $60
All ingame items - I'll just say $5 for the ingame WoW pet.
Grand Total if you bought all items individually $245.99, that's not bad for a $100 package.
If you have the AP its also like getting the collectors addition for $40 because of the 4 free months and the $60 it would be saving you.
I don't care about any of those apart from the artbook which for me isn't worth 60$ My opinion stay unchanged but I totally agree that for someone interested in every items and willing to pay said prices 100$ is worth it.
I'm just saying the artbook and game alone more then make up the price of the CE if you bought them individually.

Yeah I understood, but I'll never pay that much for a artbook

Understandable, infact I won't even look at mine until AFTER I beat Diablo, I looked at SCII's first, and got a major spoiler to the end of the story, wasn't happy.
Me, i really wish i could but really tight with money so it's a pass for me unless someone buys it for me hahah :L.
That's the case for me. I have a friend giving it to me, so that's SO nice! I'd be getting it nonetheless though. But I'll use the money saved on the CE for 3 boxes of Redbull to split instead.
I will be picking up the CE. Not necessarily for the stuff it contains (though they are a bonus). I enjoy the boxes, I don't know why but I do. I even picked up the collectors edition of duke nukem forever *cough abortion cough* which I had pre-ordered for 14 years. I have a mantle on the wall about 6 inches wide about 1/2 way up the wall which has all my collectors editions from the past 10 years. All my Blizzcon souvenirs and of course my signed blizzcon d3 demo posters from 2008, 2010 and 2011 (I missed '09 ) also sit on that ledge.

Regular edition for me. There isn't anything in the CE that I really want to have. The art book is the coolest item in it, and if it were a full fledged beastiary I'd probably bite.
already pre-ordered two copies of the CE for me and my GF to play, set for delivery on release date. we have been playing the diablo series together for a long time (we even still play from time to time, its easier now that we live together), cant wait to bust out the diablo 3 custom USB and dock, check out the artwork, then play some diablo 3 with her.
Better buy quick they are going to be sold out = P. Got the last one I can pick up from BestBuy in my area, my brother tried 10 minutes later and it was sold out. He's going to have to have his delivered. I wish BestBuy would have a midnight release = \.
