Did you happen to get the dice that came with Bones of Power? From what I can remember, there is supposed to be 2 differently colored d6s but I would have to dig my copy out of storage to be sure. If they are supposed to be there, I'm not 100% sure what they are used for though.

No, they only had the books. Old, old stock just laying in a corner. For a couple of bucks, I said "what the hey..."

The First comic Elric titles aren't too hard to find, Hector---you should be able to get them in trade pb or in their original separate issues without too much difficulty.  I often find that Mile High Comics is a good source for cheap, not-too-rare comics:  Mile High Comics - Your New And Collectible Comic Book Store  (I've bought from them via eBay and their web store for years, and never been disappointed).

Wizards of the Coast has an office in Belgium of all places. They're not really doing D&D anymore these days, just Magic. But I got in touch with a former employee from back in the day when they were still doing D&D. And he happened to be cleaning out his garage.

Unfortunately a gamestore owner had been at his place last week and had picked up 5 boxes full of RPG goodies. Too bad really, but I picked up what was left. With some luck, he might put me in contact with some of his former colleagues.

Stunning buy, congrats  

The display racks are very cool!

xRalphx wrote in Fun Finds in the Past:Thanks guys ! I'm contemplating on whether I should move the racks to the gaming room or just leave them in my living room  :D

I can send you my address if you need a place to store them.  

I did note that you had a couple of the silver anniversary banners.  Any chance you would part with one?  

Wow, that's a sweet haul.  I just want one of those experiences my whole life, just one...

Ok, this may make some people here cringe, but it was a fun find for me.

I was going through some of my old boxes and ran across my original play set.  I purchased this set a little after the original blue box came out.  The box has seen better days.      

That particular one has come up before.
