I have that list, but it's actually missing several of the titles, including all the non-Cthulhu ones (Gods of Chaos 0308 & Hawkmoon 0327).  Also missing are 0331, 0335, and 0337.

Mike, I had not noticed those gaps so I just asked over at the yoggie collectors corner. I'll post here if I get a reply.

0335 would be Gods of Law and 0331 would be Old Hrolmar.  (Both are Elric!/Stormbringer 5th ed. monographs.  Good luck finding them. ;) )

The only Chaosium product I can find for 0337 is the BtMoM game aids.  Maybe it was skipped for monograph numbering or maybe it's considered a monograph?

Guessing it's the Miskatonic Library items (of which BTMOM is one) that use this numbering sequence.

Yup 0337 is the the BtMoM Game Aid. In the upper left corner of the front cover directly above the last M in MTMOM is printed #0337.

Using this as the default CoC thread for the moment, anybody noticed rclayb lately?



Bidding left and right on CoC items.  ( a***l (211) ) for those watching CoC auctions)  Doesn't seem to like getting outbid, and wants items now.  Which isn't to say he hasn't gotten some decent prices, but some could have been bought cheaper had he been willing to wait.



On the other hand, looks like senorcoo's finally going to sell that Creature Companion of his.



Hrm.  Out of curiosity: those of you with the Creature Companion -- what did you pay for it (if you remember)?



Edit: since I may as well include myself: 10 Euros (Not counting shipping.  Came out to about 25 USD after shipping was included.)

I never got around to picking up Creature Companion but love the Malleus Monstrorum.

Just got my copy of Pelgrane Press Trail of Cthulhu this morning.

Very attractive hardcover that appears to be laid out very well.  Lots of Cthulooey goodness!  :D

I haven't gotten around to picking up Malleus yet.  I tend to put off items that are still in print -- at which point they go out of print and I start kicking myself. :lol:

Post a review of Trail once you're through reading it, if you don't mind.  It was sold out back when I placed my order during Chaosium's Fool's sale, so I didn't manage to pick up a copy.

According to the database at Yog-Sothoth.com it was released in 1998.

Jason's got the date right.

CC is essentially a single-volume (with expansion) version of the older Ye Book of Monstres volumes.  It was billed as a "core book for Keepers", but they didn't seem to have kept it in print all that long.  (Not surprising, given it was published in the midst of their financial woes.)

If you're just collecting for playability, then you don't need it if you have Malleus -- which is a greatly expanded version of it.

CC has just recently failed to sell twice at £20 in the UK. I've seen it on Amazon for as high as $160! Last one I snagged cost me £13, if I recall correctly and I think I sold it for £19.99.

Ah yes, totally wrong on those figures. I bought it for $15.85 and flogged it for $24.

senorcoo's copy has been sitting around at the same price for a while, and there are a few in eBay stores for $75 and > $100.  I don't know if I've ever seen them actually sell for that much though, hence why I was curious as to what other people have paid.

In the $20 range (give or take a bit) seems to be about on par with what I've seen.
