[QUOTE="Aaron L, post: 8169065, member: 926"] Yeah, I ordered this from Amazon on Friday after reading this review and it arrived yesterday... and [B][I]wow[/I][/B]. Damn, this thing is [B]huge[/B]. The coffin box is bigger than my 17 inch laptop. You open up the coffin and the first thing you see is Strahd lying in the coffin, printed on a big sheet of thin posterboard, and on the flipside are printed his full D&D stats. Underneath that is a plastic housing with one slot for the Tarokka deck and postcards and one slot for the rulebook and DM's screen (with attached ribbons in each of the slots allowing you to lift everything out of its slot without having to pry it out with your fingers, which I like a lot.) The screen is great-looking, being a landscape painting of (I assume) the village of Barovia. And yes, the book is softback, but it is full-size and looks great, and since the books in all the classic old boxed sets were all softback as well I don't have any problems with that. The Tarokka deck is very big, looking like it's about double the size of a standard playing card deck, and looks great as well. Overall I am [I]very [/I]happy with this and think it was totally worth the cost (70 bucks on Amazon) noting that am not usually one to buy premium edition sets like this since I live on a fixed disability income and usually don't have the money to splurge on things like this, but I had saved up some to get this and am very happy that I did so. This coffin boxed set will look wonderful sitting on a shelf. [/QUOTE]
