I do. Not because I don't feel "special", but for two reasons.

First it's lazy. Just wide releasing a limited release item means you couldn't think of a brand new thing to give, so you just use something you already made that not everyone has.

Second, pre-order bonuses require some form of commitment get. Thus people can only get one, and maybe even have to pay extra for it.

An example of a limited release item I didn't like was the Thrashball Cole 2 in GoW. It was hard work and took a lot of my time to unlock the original Thrashball Cole in the GoW beta, and they decided to just hand him out for however much money people had because they were too lazy to think of a new character. The way they rationalized fucking over all the people from the beta that worked to get him, "It's not the exact same guy. This one has a stripe".
