Hi All




Not sure if this is right place for possible updates/revisions to the main Acaeum site but couldn't find anything in the FAQ to tell me otherwise...




Hoping someone can confirm the number of different printings/editions of the 2nd Forgotten Realms boxed sets.




Acaeum lists a the 3rd, 4th and 5th printing for the 2nd edition campaign boxed sets (http://www.acaeum.com/ddindexes/miscpages/fr.html), but I'm wondering if it's possible that the 5th (1996) printing shown on the site is actually the 6th printing?




The 5th printing description says "(Note that a copy has been spotted that actually has Third/Fourth print books, i.e. no gray border)" However I think this is a distinct printing itself as I've seen a 3rd variant of the box, with the same art as the 5th print but with the older white/blue/red AD&D 2e logo in the bottom right corner as shown in this auction





** expired/removed eBay auction **





Thanks!

I thought this had been brought up before but I cant find the thread. There are more printings than listed on the current page. Hopefully they make it into the next update.

Yes the one with the 2nd ed logo on the bottom right is a seperate printing not listed here yet.

Yes, I thought we had talked about it before too.  I was going through my prints the other day and thinking the same thing (hasn't been updated).
