The Lord of the Rings Online Mithril Edition Becomes GameStop Exclusive

I'm not sure if a GameStop exclusive was what Turbine originally had planned when they announced that a The Lord of the Rings Online Mithril Edition compilation was headed to retail, but that's exactly what we learned when a new press release hit our inbox this morning. Hopefully this is a temporary exclusivity thing and we wind up seeing this on Steam and other digital channels aside from Impulse:
The Lord of the Rings Onlineâ„¢: Mithrilâ„¢ Edition
