The Official “LittleBigPlanet Creator” MiniGuide by Brady Games - This exclusive digital guide is a primer for LittleBIGPlanet’s CREATE tools and provides users with a quick tutorial to begin developing their own levels.”

LittleBigStickerBook - For those of you who love to customize - this item is for you! This exclusive sticker book contains some of our favorite LBP imagery for you to apply your own ‘mash-up’ to your favorite possessions. Or take something else you own and make it your favorite!

LittleBigPouch - Keep your LBP game safe and protected from the elements with this exclusive burlap pouch. Its so unique and stylish, it would make a SackMother proud.

Exclusive Nariko SackGirl - SackBoy’s beware! Nariko SackGirl has been known to keep other SackBoys (and SackGirls) in check. This exclusive downloadable costume features our favorite heroine on the PS3.

Exclusive Kratos SackBoy - Nuff’ said. Yes…the forum rumors were true - but the biggest question remains “why didn’t this guy smile?” Seriously, this is another exclusive downloadable costume that will elevate your SackBoy status to godlike proportions.

This actually looks really cool, unfortunately you can't have all of them apperently. Maybe gamestop will let you chose, because I'd love the guide, bag, or Kratos Sackboy.

don't really care about the novelty sackboys because i'll be using a custom one. that pouch is the only thing that really interests me, but that'd really just be a novelty swag item that doesn't get used.

prolly just get the normal version like usual--i'd be interested in an actual plush sackboy replica though.

Yeah, this is exactly what I was hoping Sony would do when they first showed off LBP. Every game release from now on should have a Sackboy model with it. Uncharted should get a new patch with the half-tuck Sackboy. I want a Clank sackboy character.

My biggest problem is how they made it seem like the item depends on retailer, but apparently they said that isn't the case in the comments.

MS should do something similar and include a pre-made Warthog and Banshee with Banjo 3.

Yes, thats just what the PS3 userbase needs - stickers

Hey why dont you give them LBP trapper keepers to put them on as well

demi · « **Reply #4 on:** August 05, 2008, 09:37:30 PM »

Remember Trapper Keepers?

JustinP · « **Reply #5 on:** August 05, 2008, 09:38:21 PM »

i'd buy a LBP trapper keeper on day fucking one

cool breeze · « **Reply #6 on:** August 05, 2008, 09:42:12 PM »

Last Trapper Keeper I got was 8 years ago. It was a preorder bonus for Zelda OoT.

The stickers don't interest me too much. It reminds me of Guitar Hero including stickers to put on your fisher price guitar.

dunno if you got something different, but i got a zelda 3 ring binder with OoT.

cool breeze · « **Reply #8 on:** August 05, 2008, 09:46:31 PM »

Yeah, that was it. I don't actually know what the hell a trapper keeper is then.

You preordered it from Best Buy too?

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #9 on:** August 05, 2008, 09:47:10 PM »

Can we stop calling it a fisher price guitar?

Shawn Elliot is not and never was funny.

didn't pre-order it, but i was camping out at best buy for it that morning. had to do that because my funcoland pre-order was not going to be filled--back then they couldn't guarantee pre-orders.

i guess trapper keepers had 3 rings, but i always associated the unique folding design and the rad artwork on plastic as being 'trapper keeper'.

the zelda thing was black nylon with a small velcro latch thing.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #12 on:** August 05, 2008, 09:55:24 PM »

I had that exact trapper keeper as a small meth

cool breeze · « **Reply #13 on:** August 05, 2008, 10:00:18 PM »

I have to rummage through my old stuff and see if I have a trapper keeper or not. I don't think I do.

Tucah · « **Reply #14 on:** August 05, 2008, 10:10:43 PM »

I want the Kratos sackboy. Would have also accepted a LBP trapper keeper.

i'll preorder for the burlap bag or the creator helper thing

hey, free shit, and i was gonna buy it anyway

i'm preordering fallout 3 for the cd with all the cool oldies tunes

wow - poor sony fans just did a "who cares about preorders?" thread too where they all agreed preordering was worthless and only sad xbots did it.

to be fair, most of the stuff that those sad Xbots pre-order have some sad pre-order bonuses and perks. Then again, I'm not seeing the awesome here either. If that Kratos one was an actual plush, sure.

cool breeze · « **Reply #19 on:** August 07, 2008, 01:38:45 AM »

The actual Sackboy plushes are coming at some point. There will be no LE for this game, so no chance of it be bundled with the game itself.

duckman2000 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 07, 2008, 01:39:49 AM »

I'm wondering if other people never realized that they were plushes. I mean, what else is there to get excited about? A guide? To LBP, of all games? Stickers, I guess. My kid loves stickers. But not as much as she loves plush toys.

cool breeze · « **Reply #21 on:** August 07, 2008, 01:41:31 AM »

The guide is probably good for lazy people. It probably would just teach them how to make complex vehicles and shit like that. That is the least interesting one.

JustinP · « **Reply #22 on:** August 07, 2008, 01:47:54 AM »

i generally don't pre-order unless

1. i think there's a chance it'll be sold out on day one
2. there's an extra perk for pre-ordering

so i'll probably do it for the sack. mmm

tiesto · « **Reply #23 on:** August 07, 2008, 07:40:59 AM »

Who is this Nariko character I keep hearing so much about lately?

Tieno · « **Reply #24 on:** August 07, 2008, 08:51:28 PM »

These pre-orders are really lame, especially when you consider they could do a plush sackboy

Mrbob · « **Reply #25 on:** August 07, 2008, 09:54:40 PM »

Yeah I'm not impressed with any of these preorder items either.

Give me an actual plushie.

cool breeze · « **Reply #26 on:** August 07, 2008, 09:56:18 PM »

You have to realize that all this stuff is free. It isn't like paying $100+ to get a cat helmet or arm clock that you can't put on your arm. The Sackboy plushes are going to come out, but you just pay for them separate.

cool breeze · « **Reply #27 on:** August 10, 2008, 04:22:43 PM »

Kratos is going to be the Gamestop pre-order bonus.

JustinP · « **Reply #28 on:** August 10, 2008, 04:52:17 PM »

i'll probably pre-order with whatever store offers the bag, as long as i can get the game day one without a hassle or extra shipping.

cool breeze · « **Reply #29 on:** August 10, 2008, 04:59:49 PM »

Well, I think some people should consider that by getting the Kratos character, it means you are getting all his assets also. It is like with the Killzone one where the mask, helmet, suit, etc all separate.

JustinP · « **Reply #30 on:** August 10, 2008, 05:36:52 PM »

has that been confirmed? sounds likely either way. can't imagine i'll want to use any of those parts though--would still rather have the bag. there seems to be enough costume parts in the game to allow a near infinite number of possibilities--and you can always use stickers with the cardboard parts to add even more customization.

Nice vid JP. I'm buying this day one but I see some framerate chugs. Hope it was just the video.

There are reports that when you go past 2 players, at least in create mode, the game does have slowdown. I don't know if it is for every mode or not.

from shane's impressions with a non-final version right?

from how it sounded to me, he was only talking about the create mode.

cool breeze · « **Reply #35 on:** August 13, 2008, 10:33:01 PM »

Yeah, the build the press/beta testers are playing has that issue.

shane's the only place i've heard it, and he has a different build than the beta testers. have you seen a beta tester talk about it?

cool breeze · « **Reply #37 on:** August 13, 2008, 10:38:11 PM »

It almost seems implied that the network for sharing levels and such is up for both press and those in the beta, but those levels from the beta/press build can't be used in the retail game. I don't think the versions are that different.

shane's specifically said the press build doesn't have any online functionality.

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #40 on:** August 13, 2008, 10:57:36 PM »

I missread the thread and thought those were actual sackboys. Sucks that their just reskins :/

Gamecrazy has the pouch if you pre-order it there.
