Weird Al Yankovic Releases a Box Set in an Accordion
Fans of Weird Al Yankovic are going to love this news. This is the box set that you have always wanted. Weird Al released his first album in 1983, and since then he’s released 14 studio albums in total. Now all of his albums will be available in one place, along with a bunch of bonus material in the Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of Weird Al Yankovic box set.
Oh and the box is shaped like an accordion hence the name, squeezebox. You can’t play it, but you can admire it. You can get the collection in either CD or vinyl and the prices vary depending on the number of extras inside. Stuff like t-shirts, socks, a signed test pressing, and more.
This is a dream set for any Weird Al fan. It is his entire career in one set. It’s only available here, with prices ranging from $200 to $475(USD), a small price to pay for nerdy greatness.

Wolfenstein: The New Order Panzerhund Edition Celebrates the Game
I have a soft spot for Wolfenstein; it was the first FPS game I ever played back in the day. If you too are a fan of the franchise, you may have played the Wolfenstein: The New Order game already. And if you enjoyed the title, you will appreciate this special box set.
This isn’t a box set that includes the game mind you; it’s just some items from the game to make things a bit more special for fans. You get an officially licensed collectible – an articulated Panzerhund statue that is hand-painted. Other than the statue, you get a footlocker style box, 14 weathered looking postcards from the game’s alternate history, three embroidered patches, assorted maps and an x-ray among other things. You also get some replica dog tags.
Only 5,000 of the box sets will be made. It’s too bad this doesn’t include a copy of the game, but I guess they’re assuming that anyone who wants one already owns the game, and it would have just driven the price up. You can get your own box set for $99.99(USD) from ThinkGeek.

It looks pretty awesome, like the early posters for season 3, but sculpted. That dragon jumps out at you, as if it’s ready to breath fire in your face.
Now this is an edition to own. If you want to pick up this box set, it will cost you $105(USD) and releases February 18th, 2014. Why wouldn’t you want this in your collection?
