Retro D&D Unboxing

[dluff]

I still have my game from early 80's and had to fill in the dice with a white crayon.

[Bormindin]

New dice in the old game version?

Something isnt right...

[korangar2010]

That's not the original shrink-wrap. Those are modern dice, not the original ones. And the box does not have any of the TSR advert sheets for other products or the post-card subscription forms for Dragon magazine or the RPGA. So it's not a big deal that you opened it. It's in really good shape, but it's not as "original" as you think. Hope you didn't pay too much.

This is the best version of D&D. Screw THACO.

...you're dumb.

The original basic set came with Keep on the Borderlands module.

i still have all of my orignal D&D game books all the way up to the ones where you took your character to god levels . its a great game . i remember when you could go throu many encounters and combat was simple to run . the D&D of today takes a long time just to get throu one encounter . 3.5 was not to bad with a little bit of workbut D&D 4.0 i just dont like it . great video guys have fun playing .

You should have cut off the shrink wrap with more care, some collector would pay top dollar for it on ebay LMAO

[peri2502]

I like the art in the old books so much better than what it is today

[butson89]

Great video, guys. I love getting to see this awesome set unboxed - I came into D&D quite a while after this was released, so I never had one of my own!

[snipa66]

i like the 1st edition best got all you need to play in 1st edition (none other though)

[JayceJerrod]

[spudmanchronic]

[Samwise7RPG]

TSR > WOTC :)

[nakedmolerat43]

[DarkMorgan]

I came, I saw, I came.

[marceloyanez111pt2]

Where did you get this? I want to open one brand new as well!

[harveydents]

I have the original of the basic, expert, and companion rules from my childhood in the early 80s...looking for masters and immortals sets now!

*nerdgasm*

[lynxswift]

This was the first D&D set I ever got :). Amazing you were able to find one in mint condition. Mine also came with the crappy dice with the crayon to fill in th enumbers :). Currently my books are beat up, and the box thrown out long ago :(.

[rossik]

theres no reason to keep a book not-opened.

use it! ^__^

[xxeternalbeautyxx]

you opened it?

FOOLS!

you could have just got PDF copies.

[bludeborne]

@xxeternalbeautyxx PDFs are no match to a real book!

[harveydents]

@bludeborne i agree!! you gotta have the book, and the smell of the old books! BUT i do like to get the modules online pdf...because if you went back and bought EVERY module you would go broke!

[VicRules666]

I have this with the original unused crayon.

[Warslaine]

Thats the one I have the box and the books are beat up but they still work 8)

[YogahofYag]

A shrink-wrapped Mentzer Basic?!?

*drool*

[courtneyfriel]

Great video, you guys were like some Indiana Jones dudes.

[phaedruslive]

you should tell me where i can get me one of those! seriously just point me in the right direction

[swordplusone]

That was the first D&D product I ever owned. I don't have the box anymore, but I still have the rulebooks :)
