Decent Cosmic Encounter lot, featuring the "deep box":

** expired/removed eBay auction **

The three expansions listed are 4, 5, and 7 ... two of those are among the tougher to find.

It would appear to be some kind of game based on the D&D cartoon, sort of like In Search of the Dungeon Master (or whatever) only not a board game. But, that's a guess, based only one what it looks like and the description. Never seen one, but that's not very surprising.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

I guess they were licensed in the UK by the company distributing the cartoon show. Italy too got a boardgame based on the cartoon with NO mention at all of TSR.

These combat calculators are interesting considering they were made in 1974:

** expired/removed eBay auction **

I just searched exhaustively, but found only one other reference to a sale of one of these mint in wrapping for a few dollars.

Does anyone know what it was made for?

I love the first answer to the first question: how does he know who is going to win before the auction ends?

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

2"-deep box with a copy of Basic Role-Playing?

Yeah, sounds like a 1st edition, 1st printing to me.
