Not to be quietly outdone by the Skyrim Collector's Edition we unboxed earlier today, The Lord of the Rings: War in the North also comes in loot laden Collector's Edition. We cracked it open as well to see what the $140 price tag buys.

The contents comes all wrapped up in a full-size leather quiver. The highlight of the package, a proper cloth map of middle earth, done in the style of a wall scroll, is wound around the two arrows it carries. Handle with care, though, we already managed to break one of the plastic arrowheads. A pouch on the front contains the game, and an art book with a soundtrack CD in it.

Get a closer look at it all after the jump in our unboxing gallery, and while you're at it check out the War in the North launch trailer that debuted today as well.

With an asking price of $150 during such turbulent economic times, you really need to get a good look at the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim 'Collector's Edition' before deciding to pick it up.

The over-sized edition of the game features a large plastic statue of one of the game's (all the) dragons, bonus DVD, and 200-page art book. Get a closer look at everything included in our gallery unboxing after the jump.

Soon after our review, we'll introduce a new series we're calling "Skyrim Stories," where editors from Shacknews will share their tales from the wild world of Skyrim.
