I totally agree. I mean to be honest I'd buy the thing if they sold it, but I'd be really annoyed. It's not that I'm ungrateful for getting any of my swag, but I had to earn it, and it would frustrate me to watch people be able to fork over a lot of money to get what I had to fork over a lot of time to get. I just think that we deserve to have tokens of our journey and it would frankly infuriate me if you could just buy them. That's what makes the swag so cool--you can't just buy it, you have to work for it, and if you see someone running around with a Harvey Dent button, we could all shout, one of us! One of us! I mean that's what this game is all about. If you could just turn around and buy it, it would lessen part of what makes this game so awesome.
On the other hand, if they felt like giving out NEW cool collector's edition-exclusive stuff, I'd totally fork over the cash, and I'd be happy about it. But, like I said, even if it was the old stuff, I'd fork over the cash...but I wouldn't be happy.
