I know there has been a lot of excitement about them - but as I am not really into new products I have not had that much interest and have not read through the lengthy threads discussing them. I know it must have been stated before, but what is all the fuss with these modules? Can someone sum up in a nutshell - What is so good about them? - What system are they for? - Was there a limited print run?

Most of it is good value and well written when compared to the product put out by their competitors at the time, and even the stuff of dubious quality and production value will be collected for the sake of completing the set (R1 for example).Most NG stuff is either holding it's cover price or reselling way over cover price, and you can't say the same about most of GG's line or TLG's products.

Presto.A DM of any experience ought to be able to substitute stat blocks on the fly with almost no preparation.
