Gearbox today revealed the final artwork for the Borderlands 2 box plus the details of the contents of the limited edition and the loot chest edition. Pics inside.

You can see the new box art here, it's a call back to the original game where the bandit was blowing his brains out with his fingers made to look like a gun. Now there are two "finger guns" so you know it Borderlands 2. Clever.

More importantly, Gearbox announced what we'll be getting if we order one of the two limited edtions. First up is the Deluxe Vault Hunter's Collectors Edition ($99) which includes an authentic Marcus Kincaid bobble head, hardbound art book, map of Pandora, comic book download and a four sticker set.

That's a lot of stuff. Don't tell @Choke that the Ultimate edition is numbered or it'll be on his flip list!

Cloth Map FTW!

Here's a scale photo of the loot box curtosey of 2KElizabeth and her dog Pancacke. Yeah, I don't really know how big the dog is, but the box is about twice the size of that phone in the background.

terrible box art the splatters dont even line up with the finger guns. Anyone know if they are going to include a south paw control style? Borderlands is racist to lefties.

I don't really too much care for these big-ass, over-the-top collector's edition releases. In my experience most of the items end up in a box in the basement or attic. Sometimes game-related memorabilia is cool, but more often than not it's just too much.

At least this special edition's box can be put to use storing other stuff in a stylish way. I already wanted the game, now I REALLY want a special edition.
