I’m pretty sure that’s not an accurate description saying up to 2011. That last book is the slipcased 2008 copy, sold through the bookclub.

The minis on the end are the pocket edition from 2011

Oh, of course they are ?. I was looking to the wrong end… doh

A very nice copy of the 2nd Impression, spine is very good.

I thought no one had spotted it

It was a slow starter

That's really incredible. Does anyone have knowledge of the overall collectability of these sets? They are beautiful. I would like to add it to my collection one day for sure, but now is not that time :)
