    Their are actually 3 limited edition bundles from Ubisoft.


    The Hope County Montana Edition which includes a numbed 1 of 4000 resin deer skull trophy along with limited steel book and map with gold version of the game.


    The Father Edition which comes with Joseph Seed posing with the bible in front of a stain glass backdrop which also comes with gold edition of the game and a steelbook if I recall.


    Than the one you're missing is the mondo edition. But it might just be because it sold out and they don't have it anymore. It's numbered 1 in 2000. It has a vinyl record of the soundtrack of far cry 5 with some neat joseph seed artwork specially desgined by a mondo developer. It also comes with a steelbook version of the game although not gold.




    As for Gamestop they have a edition that comes with a boomer holding a rifle in his mouth. Not sure if that's been officially announced yet.


    As for which is the best? That comes down to preference. But if I had to pick one, I think the Hope County, Montana Edition with the Deer Skull is the coolest. I chose between that and the father edition for a good few hours but in the end I found the deer head as a unique piece of art as well as a piece of far cry culture.
    The Father Edition is awesome as well though with that stain glass. But I find myself more into the animals of far cry. and the bundle box is bigger, includes more and is more limited with the montana edition. I ended up pre purchasing that about a month ago along with the mondo edition and a father's calling joseph seed statue.

    One thing I will say is ubisoft has hit a home run with their collectors editions this time around. A little something for everyone and they are limited, well made and the season pass comes with a maddening amount of extra content from whole games to side campaigns. I'm loving it. .

    I'm sorry I don't know the answer, but I'll make the general point that Ubisoft releases often seem confusing because of the multiple versions, special editions and retailer specials.
    If you need a spreadsheet to understand what contains what, something is wrong,

    The only pre-order bonus you talked about was the EB games mug, which you'd get for ordering the father edition I imagine, but the hope county edition that has the deer skull is a ubistore exclusive so you wouldn't get the eb games exclusive mug... you can't have it all unless you buy the game twice.

    Pssh, buy the game 3 times I guess, collector's edition supplements are not typically sold separately as they're sort of the incentive for getting each edition....
