[QUOTE="Weregrognard, post: 4514849, member: 26396"] I don't see what the problem is. If WotC were to include the entirety of the D&D game in the "starter" set, what would be the point of having the three books? I think this product suffices as an affordable introduction to the game without competing with the main product. Yes, I know it's not the same as the OD&D boxes, but that was a different kind of product because it was the [B]entirety [/B]of the game (such as it was). The only way they could make the current D&D the same as this is to release a smaller boxed set for each tier (not necessarily a bad idea), but again, that would compete with their main product. Personally, I think nothing beats the 91 boxed set (it was just chockfull of goodies), but I recognize that the starter product WotC is trying to sell nowadays is different. That doesn't necessarily make it bad. I don't know about you, but I'm dropping a copy of this in a Toys for Tots bin when I get the chance. Hopefully, It'll change some kid's life in a positive way like the 91 boxed set did for me :) [/QUOTE]
