So, my physical collector edition finally arrived today. Shipping box was all smashed up, half open. I was in a panic when I saw it. Opened it and inside I could see the seal on the Morrowind box was open! More panic. However, statue was still inside and - no broken leg!!! Yay! So, inside was the statue, the poster, the book, and the DVD container with disc inside. I don't think anything else was missing. Please let me know if you box contained anything else.

Now as for the poster, it is tiny! So tiny I laughed and laughed, Needed some comic relief at this point, but come on ZOS. Seriously? Even the picture on the box shows a better bigger poster. Borders on fraud I think.

What a week...

    Printing on 11x17 is like $0.50 cents/per paper (semi gloss), if you do a bulk order with most print vendors. That's lame if the poster is small.

    While you obviously can't exchange it, if you get ahold of the company you ordered from, you can probably get at least a rebate out of it.

    I would have loved for the poster to have been made of fabric. Like an olde time map that an adventurer might have rolled up in one of his packs. Its a shame that that didnt happen. Instead we got this rather small lamentated paper. If I find a way to flip that image onto some paper...I might just do it myself. Would be something nice to actually frame.

    Took a picture of the poster in case someone finds it helpful. Its slightly smaller than the original map, just the actual map is smaller due to the orientation and border.

    Yes. I was EXTREMELY disappointed with the map. It is cheap paper folded twice. The maps that came with The Witcher 3 and most other RPG's have better maps and on better paper. The book is nice but geeez! Give us the map that was shown to us in the pre-sale pics.

    Yeah - if the map in the adverts was the same as the one that shipped, I would be underwhelmed, but ok. What ticks me off is that even on the box it comes in, there is a photo showing it much much larger. Just very cheesy and deceptive.

    The poster is much smaller than it appears in all of the "out of box" preview pictures they released. In the picture you can still clearly see the poster with everything sat on top of it. The statue, the book (open!), The case (stood up, not flat down), and even the box it all came in. In actuality, most of the surface area of the poster is gone by just placing the box on top.

    It's not even printed on something nice to make up for the size...
