It pays to be a pre-orderer for once

Now that's a pretty spiffy piece of swag, even if it looks like this case painted gold with a Phantom Hourglass logo on it. And, as the above graphic states, all one needs to do is pre-order the title through EBgames. Sadly, some of us aren't afforded the opportunity to get this sweet carrying case, though. It's only available to those living in Australia.

ONLY those in Australia? Why there? That's...pretty specific. Well, props to Australia for getting a neat exclusive.

Wow. Well, good job Australia. I can't begrudge them - when do they ever get anything special?
But, it looks like I don't get jack for pre-ordering through the store nearest to me (GameCrazy). I want a fancy box and stickers and stuff! Make an article saying they are giving me something :(
