Biohazard Umbrella Aluminum Case

e-Capcom has started preorders for an aluminum case decorated with the Umbrella logo, a Biohazard marker, and text which reads, "Potentially Infectious Waste." In addition to the aluminum case, a pair of keys, yellow-colored Biohazard caution tape, and two warning tags are included. Pricing in Japan is set at JPY3675 but due to the dimensional weight of the item, shipping costs will be lofty and the product is priced accordingly. The aluminum case measures (L) 214mm x (W) 359mm x (H) 191mm (8.42 x 14.13 x 7.51") and is segmented into three portions inside which can hold up to 20 DVDs or roughly 30 CDs. We're thinking of storing all of our Biohazard and Resident Evil games from the PS1, PS2, and Gamecube in there. Preorders are welcome to ship in mid June 2007.
