Hrm. I wonder if Magic Item Compendium is going to take a small amount of all existing Magical Items from various sources and expand each item to be like the new item stat block. Before, I would have said 'Woohoo!', but I'm not quite sure I can do that atm because expanded, it would leave out SO MANY magical items that it couldn't even call itself a Compendium anymore...

Or, more likely, it will just be a magical item compendium.
Like the Spell Compendium.

I would welcome magic items with a bit more description, flavor text or (especially) history. But the smart money is on a straight reprint.

I think a Magic Item Compendium is less useful. Though, I was hoping that Weapons of Legacy would have been just a bunch of new weapons with lots of color.

It might be good to see what wotc Corrected, Adjusted, and Nerfed to oblivion.

I don't know, I'd be first in line for a 3.5 edition of the Encyclopedia Magica. If they adapt everything to 3.5 they might even be able to fit it in the same 4 volumes, since they'd cut down a lot of the duplication and some items can be short-cutted (it's a holy, outsider bane longsword). The development time would be HUGE though.

Woo Hoo!! Sign me up!

It just gives me hope for a feat and PrC compendium!

...ONE book I can go through for all my magic item needs? I'm sold!

A feat compendium would be even more useful.
