Still mentions the physical retailer pre-purchase stuff, but the only official partner (Gamestop for U.S.) still isn’t listing anything but the download. Any news on what’s going on with that?

Gone for good after Halloween 2Ø12.
A shame fun things could not simply be fun.

Pretty sure Dark is talking about this since they didn’t mention anything about a collector’s edition:

Can I pre-purchase through my favorite retailer?

Yes. Starting on June 23, 2015, you’ll be able to pre-purchase boxed and digital editions of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns from our official retail partners (additional retailers may be added during the pre-purchase period).

Knowing Game-stop I could see it being a box’d download code.
I’ve already bought the digital Ultimate edition. But if a worthy Collector’s edition comes out I’ll probably buy it too. But from the wording there is no Collector’s edition, and at most a box’d standard, deluxe, and ultimate edition.

I’m think it is indeed just the box with a code inside, but I can’t verify that. Some people like the box though because they collect them. Other’s may not have a method of payment available to them to allow them to make online purchases so a store bought copy is their only choice.
