Best Preorder Bonus Ever [R-Type Command]
Toneman | 2:23 PM on 05.21.2008 8 comments


While browsing through the promo drawer at my store I found what may just be the best preorder bonus ever. This particular bonus is for R-Type Command on the PSP which, surprise, we had no preorders for. The bonus for R-Type is a little model of the ship on the box art. Since we had no customers to claim this item, I snagged it up and took it home.
Here's the before: (forgive the shitty camera phone pics)

And here's the after:

Chances are that the GameStop near you had no preorders for R-Type either, and thus so, no customers to pick up the bonus. So if you think this model is awesome stop by and ask them if they have one. I'm sure they'd be willing to give it up if you offer to preorder something.

Just checked out ebay. People are paying up to $20 for these things. I'd say it's worth $5 at most. Keep in mind that it is a free promo item so it's not the highest quality material.

I actually tried to get one from my GS. Apparently I didn't mask my enthusiasm enough. I think they're e-bay bound. =/

Sorry king, I took the last one. You could always try the EB downstairs. (lol)
