Monster Manual Gift Set Not Updated?

[JoeGKushner]

Games Plus has the Monster Manual Gift set.

I paged to the Fiend Folio.

It notes it's a first printing.

Is it wrong? If so, useless to those awaiting 3.5 fixes to the MMII and errata for the Fiend Folio and MMIII.

Hopefully, it's not updated. Then we don't have to worry about the inevitable deluge of indigant posts about how WotC is "forcing" everyone to buy the same books all over again just to get updated data, and that the ethical approach would be to offer some incredibly impractical trade-in policy for owners of the old to receive free copies of the new edition.

C'mon, you know it would happen.

C'mon, you know it would happen.

I'm hoping it still does

Hopefully, it's not updated.

I won't be buying that gift set. However, if they did update the Fiend Folio and Monster Manual II and re-release them seperately, I would rebuy them.

Of course, even better would be if they updated the FF and MMII, combined them and the MMIII into a single mega-tome, and released that, but I think that's even more unlikely to happen.

If the books are not updated, then they can count me out of their sales figures.

Had the books been updated and erratta'd then I would have been sure to purchase... I was only waiting to see if the rumored updating was a reality. Guess not.

They are the original printings.

The Monster Manual II and Fiend folio are not updated versions. All the books are the same as the currently available versions. As for why no information being up on the site yet, I couldn't say! I am passing your interest along in the hopes that more info will be posted!

Good Luck and Game On!
