Our current plan is to release a Castle Zagyg: Yggsburgh retro print immediately. This is a reprint of the book as it was released in 2005. Following this, we will release The Hermit as a Kickstarter campaign. The Hermit will be updated for Castles and Crusades; the Fantasy Roleplaying Game, laid out in full color with new maps and illustrations, contain notes on its development and all original material as well. The Gygaxian Fantasy World Series will be launched on Kickstarter in the first quarter of 2024. The eight plus volume series of works is one of Gary’s prides and joys as well as a treasure trove of information for anyone wanting to create a comprehensive fantasy world setting.

Not the stringy invaded by a creeping root thing that’s going on there, but hard lumpy glue globules under the paper, like they made them up in TLG with Pritt Stick to keep up with demand. I had maybe 6 out of the 18 I stocked with not so perfect assembly, so maybe 30+% of the stock that passes through my hands. I actually quite like the stringy root thing going on there.There are plenty of collectors out there who want products in new/nearly new condition, and would forgive imperfections in assembly. Much better than torn corners or creased concave lids.I’d take a guess at maybe a 10% reduction in realised value, but those who buy and sell in the current market are the ones to listen to, so hopefully someone else will chime in.

Box oddity or defect.:There more then likely will be more impact on value when Troll Lord Games starts to release more from this line now that they can do so again. I'd not be worried about losing money on the defect but those who don't need a 1st print of this and will wait for the release of the 2nd print.ShaneG.
