Samsung Galaxy S3 London Olympics 2012 Premium Edition launched in Taiwan

Being one of the official sponsored of the London Olympics 2012, Samsung has already been running several advertisements in conjunction with the event. In fact, a limited edition Samsung Galaxy S III is to be distributed to athletes attending the games and select partners.

For the general public however, Samsung has now launched an official Premium Edition Olympics Accessories Pack for the Galaxy S III in Taiwan.
Essentially, this Premium Edition Olympics pack consists of a phone holder, a custom back casing, and a tiny figurine of a British royal guard that can be placed into the 3.5 mm audio jack of the phone. The tiny figurine is purely decorative and is merely there to add to the overall effect.

From what information is available, it appears as if there are three different types of phone holders, each of which features either a figurine of a weightlifter, a Taekwondo exponent, or a cyclist. The figurine props up the phone when it is placed into a slot on the base of the phone holder, which has the design of a portion of the British flag.
Additionally, there are also two different types of custom back casings for the device, one of which is based on the design of the British flag and another which has a faceless British royal guard.
Very few details are available about the pricing and availability of these premium accessory packs, but it is known that the custom back casings are being sold for $299 Taiwan Dollars (approximately $10 USD). This suggests that there may be a choice to purchase the entire pack or just purchase the back casings separately.
Whether or not this pack is exclusive to Taiwan or will be available elsewhere is also currently unknown but perhaps over the course of the  Olympic Games more such memorabilia will be released.
