Re: [SWCollect] WC3: Premiere Edition

Tom, you're on to something, I took a look at the images I saved. I have one pic of a box where the T-shirt line has been (partially) blacked out. Also there's a variation of the canister's label, not all seem to have the "Premiere Edition" writing:   http://uw3.de/wc3_premiere_1.jpg http://uw3.de/wc3_premiere_2.jpg http://uw3.de/wc3_premiere_3.jpg   If they ran out of T-shirts that might explain the existence of so many 'incomplete' copies...   Oh and could it be the first pic (scan) was actually taken by you? I cannot remember how it made its way into my archive but I don't believe it came from an auction.   /Alexander     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, February 02, 2003 3:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SWCollect] WC3: Premiere Edition In a message dated 02/02/2003 7:30:00 AM Central Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I paid $125 for my shrinked European release, the only sealed copy I've ever come across. WC3 Premiere was rather common on eBay Germany roughly a year ago (at least one copy per month), but often missing important components, people seem to have struggled keeping all the parts together. I'm not sure all of these are the same. I've seen a few of these big box/cannister releases that don't come with everything. In fact I have one, the spot where it says tshirt included on the box is blacked out. And I've seen others the same way (missing some other items too, at least mine is, mine does have the cannister but there is no picture on it). Maybe there was a "budget" premier edition too (the Sam's release?) By the way that IBM UII was/is not good, the contents were not from the big box, for sure the manual and galactic map/ref card are from a small box version. Tom
