Does Not Illustrate: Pre Order Bonus

So... how does a picture of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and its Master Quest's box art show that it was a bonus for pre-ordering The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker? This clearly doesn't show anything.

As for replacements, this is nice and straight to the point, or this if the former seems too wordy.

Current is an example, but the image doesn't illustrate. I like the second image, but there is nothing that says that is must be pre-ordered to get the toy. It would definitely need a caption.

[up] I'm good with the first or third as long as they look good at wiki size.

Here is 3.1 at wiki size
*sigh*. 3.3 is borked.

Oh, it still shrinks it. I guess that's a problem as well. evil grin #$%@#%^!@#%&^#*!!!

I feel 5 is a bit wordy, but it could work.

Would the Sonic hat be better or worse than it, I wonder?

@1.1 is just as good as 5. I really liked 1.2, but it wasn't wordy enough.

I somewhat prefer 1.1 over 5. Other than those, I don't like any suggestion at all.

I think 1.1 would be better than 5 as all the text is easily legible. Plus It's faster to read, and shows the item you'd be receiving.

1.2 is an example of a different trope

How about this? Shows how pre-ordering from different stores net you an extra bonus car... out of a total of 800 cars.

[up] I'd wanna see that at wiki size before making a judgment, mainly for legibility concerns.

If somebody'd made this thread back in March I could've taken a screenshot of the Steam page for BioShock Infinite (they had a free copy each of BS1 and XCOM: Enemy Unknown). Oh well.

I personally like 1.1 and 5, in that order.

Is there enough of a consensus to put 1.1 up, or should we wait for more opinions?

I feel there is a stronger support for 1.1, but it's not unanimous, so I'd wait just a little longer.

Okay. 1.1 has enough support. I say go ahead, but I'm posting it here first.

Maybe "You know you want one."

Any other ideas?
