I know this isn't the direction this thread is taking but:
I feel we don't have enough information on this book. I'm seeing it for Barnes and Noble, Chapters, etc. I will order this but not until I know what so more information. It seems obvious that Barnes and Noble will be the only place to get the extra DLC codes. This doesn't matter to me so much, however I live in Canada and would rather preorder it from a Canadian retailer to avoid waiting for it to come in the mail from the States, but since I get extra content I will place an order with Barnes and Noble. Why not, right?
The only concern I have with this is whether or not the codes will work in Canada, and more importantly I believe I read that the Collector Edition of the art book comes with a "clam shell" case. This unofficial confirmation is not stated anywhere on Barnes and Nobles order and in fact has a different cover then what I originally saw. I don't know what's going on, what to expect and feel discouraged to preorder something that may come to me less then what I expected.
Please, can someone clear this up so I know where to direct my attention and place my order.

Why can't someone scan the husk enemy concepts? Those should be really good.

"The problem isn’t the individual designs, the problem is the trend in design. The fact that there isn’t a single main female character who isn’t conventionally attractive by human standards is my biggest issue. In the entire game the male aliens are allowed to actually look alien. Salarians, Turians, Volus, Krogan… they’re all very alien in appearance. The female aliens, though (the ones who are allowed to be on screen) are like… all of them are slightly edited human women in skintight costumes. Asari are just sexy blue ladies with tentacle heads. Female Quarians are extremely curvaceous. We can have Garrus looking like a lizardcatdinosaurbird thing with a carapace and Mordin looking like a bipedal pink frog but we can’t have the same thing when it comes to a female character. And when we do have some semblance of an unconventional, non-hypersexualized female character, they take it away. They put Ashley in heels and a miniskirt and EDI in a sexy robot body. Miranda’s in a catsuit. Samara is in samurai fetish gear with her boobs hanging out. Jack’s completely topless save for leather nipple straps. Tali’s in an envirosuit but it’s still completely skintight and accentuating her assets. Liara’s outfit is actually nice but then BioWare goes off and throws out disgusting s--t like the Kotobukiya statue. I don’t buy for a second that this isn’t done without any problematic pandering bulls--t in mind, looking at their marketing and their comments on the images.
"The problem isn’t with sexiness. The problem is when it is gratuitous and insulting. The problem isn’t that the female characters are beautiful and shapely and show off their bodies, but that they’re pretty much not allowed to be on the team unless they are eye candy. The disparity in design and the way the designers speak about them and how different they are between the male and the female characters is the issue, not femininity or sexiness or whatever (before anyone jumps on the GOSH CAN’T PEOPLE BE PRETTY WHAT IS UR PROBLEM train)."
