Title: Old Minis 5 and 6
Post by: Drodo on June 25, 2020, 11:47:51 PM

Hello. A couple years ago I played my first Carcassonne game in the new artwork and I liked the game so much that little by little I started to collect every single expansion available, even the rare ones that only exist in the old artwork like The Plague.

Then after I finished my collection, somebody gifted me an old artwork base game, not long ago, and it wasn't until then that I realized how much better the old artwork is.

So, naturally, I started collecting the old artwork's main expasions, which is very difficult when they have been out of print for a while and if you live in Mexico where boardgame shops and players are rare.

Still, somehow I managed to get all of them except the Minis 5 and 6. Are these rarer or something? I've looked on ebay but they have extremely high prices. Does anybody know where I can find these online at a reasonable cost? Or does anyone have spare copies?

Hi Drodo,

Welcome to the forum! I hope you enjoy the life of the completionist... I followed a similar path to yours...

Regarding Minis #5 and #6, did you try here?

I got the 6 boxes a couple of months ago along with a copy of the Ark of the Covenant... No wooden ark but enough to put my completionist compulsion to rest for a while.  ;D

Cheers!

Alas, I only have mini 2 and 4 remaining in the original art. Both available if anyone else interested.

Thank you. Strange market that is. Found them both, looks weird but I hope they make it home.

No problem.  ;)

Yep. They must have plenty of unsold stock...
