But can we import it here? I've bought stuff from Amazon.uk before and have no problem with it. Is the disk region locked? Or will I be able to play the UK version if I bought the physical collector's ed?

This was discussed before and the reports were that if you try to order from amazon.co.uk, then you get a message that says something like this product cannot be distributed to your location due to agreement with the copyright holder, or something like that. As far as I know, there are no region locks in place to bar a UK version being used in the US, but you can't ship direct.

The little hardback book in the collectors edition is quite nice but fundamentally flawed as a recognition manual as the ship illustrations are split across the book spine clipping key details like funnels.
