I didn't buy my La Porxada.  I found an image online (Probably BGG), printed it out and stuck onto a blank tile purchased from Cundco.

I expect most people do the same?

That Porxada, is that an original one?  :o

The original ones weren't even tiles, they were just stickers. I've never seen one of the original stickers up for grabs anywhere, and I don't suppose I ever will. But since it's an unofficial expansion anyway, a well-printed tile like this is a great compromise!

Good luck with your final two tile Gabrielgeek01...

So it IS legal  to buy homemade copies of La Porxada because it's an unofficial expansion, but it's not legal to buy homemade copies of the Fortune Tellers and the Russians because they are official expansions and owned by HiG. Is that correct?

Does the tile have artwork or assets which belong to HiG?
If yes, and it is being sold without license or permission from HiG, then the answer to you quesrion is: No. HiG have provided us a statement which does not define an official or unofficial expansion. This is no concern of theirs.

I know it has been said a thousand times already but the russian promo tiles just exist with a K on the back right ?

I am not hunting for them just for that reason actually; for me the back is what makes an expansion legit :)

Yes, if you see them somewhere with the regular C on the back, its probably a fan-print.
The official tiles are with the K on the back

I wonder if HiG would consider distribution of the 4 Russian promos with the classic back in their online store as a mini expansion (as they did with Japanese temples)

They normally give us something new for Easter and that would certainly be a great Easter surprise.
