The $ 199 Power Armor edition of Fallout 76 was not what buyers had promised

Originally, Bethesda had announced the creation of a "West Tek Canvas Sports Bag", which would feature among the items that would accompany the Power Armor edition of $ 199.99. Fallout 76but the fans were surprised by the quality of the item delivered with the final product.

"People who bought the collector's edition received a cheap nylon bag for the Power Armor helmet, which does not match the product description or the picture of a" bag West Tek canvas transport, "wrote an individual on Reddit. "In the list of products to date, it is always stated that it's a canvas bag and that it even looks completely different from the one delivered."

We checked our own Power Armor edition bag and, yes, it's nylon – and also very fragile.

The official wording on the Bethesda page has been changed to indicate that the bag is made of nylon, although the list still contains the image indicating that the bag is canvas.

The players also report that the company's response to this switcheroo has been less than friendly. "We're sorry you're not happy with the bag," said Bethesda's support to another fan. "The bag presented in the media was a prototype and was too expensive to manufacture."

We reached out to Bethesda for a comment.

"We are reviewing the response from the Bethesda Gear Store's support team and apologizing to the customer who took the time to contact him," Bethesda told Polygon in a statement. "The support response was incorrect and not in line with our driving policy. Unfortunately, due to the unavailability of materials, we had to move to a nylon carrying case. Fall 76: Power Armor Edition. We hope this does not prevent anyone from appreciating what we consider to be one of the best collector editions. "
