Make some room in your collection, as Blizzard Entertainment has revealed StarCraft II Collector's Edition, and you're going to want it.
Retailing for $99.99, the collector's edition comes packed with goodies, including:
-The Art of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, a 176-page book featuring artwork from the game
-An exclusive 2GB USB flash drive replica of Jim Raynor's dog tag, which comes preloaded with the original StarCraft and the StarCraft: Brood War expansion set
-A behind-the-scenes DVD containing over an hour of developer interviews, cinematics with director's commentary, and more
-The official StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty soundtrack CD, containing 14 epic tracks from the game along with exclusive bonus tracks
-StarCraft comic book issue #0, a prequel to the comic series
-A World of Warcraft mini Thor in-game pet that can be applied to all World of Warcraft characters on a single Battle.net account
-Exclusive Battle.net downloadable content, including special portraits for your Battle.net profile, decals to customize your units in-game, and a visually unique version of the terran Thor unit
If you're not one for all the extras, you can pick up the standard edition, which Blizzard has confirmed will retail for $59.99. Still no release date, but Blizzard says we can expect that information "in the coming weeks."

I won't be buying it, another $40 is a bit much for a collector's edition.
What strikes me as reason for concern is the dlc / decals that "customize your units in-game." If it's a one time thing it won't bother me but I really hope blizzard isn't going to go EA on us and monetize on tons of stupid little gimmicks. The decals sound like sc2's version of wow's in-game pet purchases...
