Limited edition special avatars

[Centipede]

The special edition Thor reminds me of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. Guess it's the gold star and the red team color.

These avatars ought to be fun for custom games.

The avatars are in the actual game no matter what. This is just for battle.net.

Where are my exclusive StarCraft avatars? You know, something cool like Kerrigan, Raynor and Zeratul.

You think they're going to limit those to the special edition? =P

Not a chance. They'll be the best icons you can get. 5000 wins (or whatever) with Zerg/Terran/Protoss respectively.

Honestly, though, I think offering a WOW pet with their SC2 CE is dumb as hell (and I actually play WoW... or I used to). Having the Tauren Marine, having a Night Elf (?) icon, that makes sense to me. But offering something that can ONLY be used with another game is just... stupid.

Be grateful. That Thor is worth a lot of money to WoW fans. If you sell it for more than $40 you can basically get the Collector's Edition for less than the standard version.

You have got to be kidding me. This killed absolutely any chance I might have possibly had of purchasing the special edition.

Let me get this straight. I'm purchasing...StarCraft 2. And two of the exclusive things they are giving me with my StarCraft 2 purchase....

........have nothing to do with StarCraft 2 at all??

/sigh

/edit LOL that's the first thing that came to my mind too!

Actually, I'm pretty sure this is a portrait of a pre-infestation Kerrigan:

If she wasnt a red head and had purple skin.

It's very hard to tell from a horrificly blurred image - Kerrigans hair wasn't that darkred, that's for sure.

It looks more brunette, which has me thinking about the chick on Tychus' armour.
