    First Look @ Collector's Edition Vendor / VIP Lounge & Bonus Items!

    For those of you who haven't redeemed your CE codes or for those who went standard and want to see what you are (but mostly aren't) missing. I recorded a quick look at the Collectors Edition & Digital Collectors Edition vendors as well as the in-game items that came with those versions. Also I kill myself for paying $150 for the CE just so i can access the vendor. The statue, poster, soundtrack, and book are all going straight in the attic!

    Items list would be nice. Does each armortype have it's own set? And yes show us the SK Vendor.

    Don't know about empire, but the republic armor set is a "republic officer" set, which makes you look like a pretty standard trooper in light armor. Very very underwhelming.

    Hopefully they realize how crap it is and add a set that suits the rest of the classes in later. What jedi would want to look like a trooper /facepalm.

    I notice in the video the empire got way more companion kits too, which is a bit unfair. We got two, one for T7 and one for Corso. Thats it. Not like there are 20 companions or anything!! And yeah you're right, the security key vendor is by far the best! It had more companion kits, and gear you might actually want to use.

    Woot, I loved the fact with my CE I get a free mount, no more needing another 8k creds(though thats not hard to do) for a speeder!

    1) Load the amount of weight I would deadlift onto the bench
    2) Unrack
    3) Crank out 15 reps
    4) Be ashamed of constantly skipping leg day

    /chuckle at people complaining about it and asking for more.

    I bought it.

    I also did my homework and looked at exactly everything it came with beforehand, assumed very little from the vendors, and hey.. gee... I'm very happy with it.

    Sorta sad that you get level 40 and dump it though, because it's slow and doesn't scale with speeder training.

    Considering mount speeds are 90%, 100% and 110%, it's not that big a loss. The reason you upgrade speeders is because they can take more damage before they dismount you, if you pull aggro.

    I took one look at the CE vendor and said 'meh'. The security vendor, on the other hand...every single female character I level from now on will be in that dancer's outfit >.>

    Granted, it's graphically glitched at the moment. It shows up as white and a really really pale shade of pink while you're running around. However, on the character screen and in conversations, the pink is actually a reddish color. Hoping they'll fix that, although I'm really happy with the pink color as it is if it never gets fixed. Also rather disappointed that there's no belt for it! It looks really strange having a utility belt around my waist, with very little else covering the rest of my body >.>

    Looks a bit underwhelming for a CE, hopefully they add to it. I like the sound of the security vendor though!

    Please keep in mind that they have stated they will add to the CE vendor over time as well.

    I wouldn't mind buying a few of those items, but man, the price of admission is way too high.

    The VIP lounge is cool and the vendors have some decent stuff but I didn't buy it for those reasons.

    Now the Fleet Pass alone from the Security vendor is worth every single penny.
