While checking the MTG News Rumor Mill for Fifth Dawn info, I found this: http://www.ps-games.nl/ I wonder why WotC has not advertised this product yet?

Is it possible this is something put together by a secondary company? Looks like the inside materials are commonplace pre-cons, some Fat pack items, and the standard 8th box set rule book added in. The outside box could be remanufactured.
Here are the contents:
1 Rule book (in english)
2 preconstructed decks
1 8th edition booster
1 Mirrodin booster
1 Darksteel booster
2 Darksteel spindown dice
1 Mirrodin basic land (foil)
1 Darksteel common (foil)
(very rough) Babel Fish Translation
Special Magic box set 07 apr 2004 From time to time a special box of Magic which is not bound to one serial, comes. This time is there collectors item on the market: It is a beautiful square box (27 x 27 centimetres) with first an image of the Avatar or Hope. Contents The contents of the box are extremely suitable for both beginners, and progressed players. There two preconstructeddeckjes of the basis serial 8th edition worry about. But burst these doosjes, shake the cards and play! To extend your deckjes, three booster rockets sit. One of the serial 8th edition, one Mirrodin and one Darksteel. To keep your scores, two twintigzijdige dice sit. These are so-called spindown life counters. Twenty state does not stand: for this in the place the symbol of the Darksteel serial stands. If you want take the rules once more by, then you can use of the vast rule book (anglophone). Finally sit still two foil play cards, know Mirrodin basiclandje and common Darksteel. In short: this box set is a desire for the eye and stands guarantor for hours speelplezier!

cool, it's a dutch site 
Btw, he calls the 20 sided dice, spindown counters, is that correct?
I always thought that spindown counters were the ones with the turning wheels

Its the dice that are usually refered to as spindown life counters as the numbers are not ramdomly spread across the dice but count down in a spiral around the dice. You in effect 'spindown' the numbers.

Looks as though this set has been released recently, but only in the UK(?).
