			I saw a physical copy of the game at my local walmart. I was wondering what you would get for purchasing now that the game is F2P?	
----
			You get a month of game time, which equates to a month of Signature time plus some Cosmic Reward Points.	
----
			Only time the physical copy is worth it is when it is for $5 like when it was at Gamestop.

I paid $20 usd for my box copy and it has been well worthwhile.  I got 30 days of "signature" time, as well as enough cosmic points for many account-bound rewards: mounts, special dyes, customization and costumes.  You'll have immediate access to guilds, circles, and lots of auction spots if you need them.
 
Mostly, the game gave me fourteen character slots!  F2P only gives 2 or something.  I would have paid for the extra character slots anyway (I have 7 characters currently, look for the Ruffpaw clan) so the free amount included in the box was well worthwhile.
 
I also like having the box of games for my shelf.  Cute Chua and Granok art.

You get 12 character slots, 5 bank slots, 6 costume slots, a month of Signature status, 12,000 Cosmic Points, and a Mystery Box that contains one of the following exclusive items: Snarfelynx Mount, Glitter Kitty Hoverboard, or Marauder Costume Set.
 
If you enjoy the game, it's definitely worth it to redeem at least one Retail Boxed copy of Wildstar on your account. And it's probably going to get more expensive to buy the no-longer manufactured Retail versions when Wildstar hits Steam and that large influx of people come check the game out.

			I snagged a physical copy of the standard edition of the game for pretty inexpensive. I just redeemed the code on my account. I did not receive most of the things mentioned here. I did not receive a mystery box. I unlocked some things like more character slots and more buy/sell slots in the AH and whatever else. I also got some sort of costume (Immortal Miner), not the one mentioned in the mystery box, as well as a Badlands Velocirex mount, some sort of mount flairs (Ground Mount Extractor ones), a dye (Marauder Red Dye), a pet (Friendly Furrelope), and I may have gotten some cosmic points, I'm not sure how many I had to begin with but have 3000 now. The items are all character or account bound so I'm stuck with them (and somehow I have two sets of the ground mount flairs). I mainly only bought the box copy to get the mystery box in hopes of getting a Snarfelynx mount. Are these items the new ones that you get now? I don't see these items mentioned anywhere as to receiving them from adding a code from the physical copy to your account. Anyone have any ideas on this? Is it possible to get a Snarfelynx this way any longer or am I stuck with saving up and buying one from the AH?

You should have received a Mystery Box item in your Account inventory. It might have already dumped into your character inventory ( with the way items seem to automatically default in now).
 
That said, the box can hold 1 of 3 possible items, so there is no 100% guarantee you'd get a Snarf anyway. Also, check your actual Cosmic Reward rank. Box copies are worth 12k, so it might have pushed you up into 3k pts into Rank 2 (The ranks reset at each tier: it's not a running total). Most of the other rewards, if I recall correctly, were added after the fact if you subscribed on or after the F2P transition, as I also have everything you listed and I'm a long-time subscriber.
 
Hope that helps some.
