I just receive 2 pack of blank tile

Any plans for them?

Yes, of course

I will take one of them to do some paint test, and I will decide what extension I will introduce in our game

Decar means you have to post a picture of the blank tiles you received on this thread. The final product will go to the Expansion Workshop

Not boardgame related, but DecarJr has really enjoyed this book series from two Polish artists/authors. The series is called Mamoko and each book follows a dozen or so characters who's story you can track across each page. There's no words, but you can tell a story and describe what happens to each character, and how their days and adventures interleave.

Unfortunately, only the first book is available in English, but it's only pictures, so that's no problem at all!

The smaller books are number and letter games.

If you're interested you can read more about the series and the artist's other works here:

I really love the postman (except the customs : 28,50 euros and the damaged the boxes…)

But hey! Not everyday I receive package from Brasil

What is in the little wooden box? and what is that tile? a metal tile?

Can you explain what all 3 items are?
I haven't seen any of these before

Same question here, Linksux, can you explain what those are? The boxes look amazing

Some pictures of the content would be great

Dominio Carcassonne is the first Brazilian edition of Carcassonne, the box is larger than usual and the back of the tile is different (I will post photos later)

The wooden box and the medal (yes the tile is metallic) is from carcassonne Brazil (an association of gamers, they also organize official national tournaments of carcassonne

I will post some photos tomorrow, here one of the Instagram of carcassonne Brazil

Everything looks pretty cool, congrats Linksux! Thanks for answering our questions, that little wooden box looks really nice, organized, and compact. Grow Jogos e Brinquedo first edition is a very interesting collectible, until now, it is the most aggressive cover of Carcassonne. Grow produced this version, and after that, they released another in a regular box, before Devir took place as the producer in South America.

Hmmm, a megacarcassone with metallic tiles, sounds fun and heavy!

I received recently two very welcomed additions to my C1 collection: The Besiegers and The Tunnels. I was searching for both for a reasonable price for quite some time as two most wanted items from my C1 wishlist. Sadly, while the Tunnels come in a neat original Spielbox edition box, no tokens were included. I stupidly overlooked a small note "only tiles" in the product description by the seller at BGG (otherwise, I would be reluctant to buy an incomplete item). I noticed that the tunnel tokens were already discussed here some years back for the possibilities to diy versions of alternative colours, so I will probably try some of the options, but if someone has spare or alternative tokens, I will pf course appreciate these.
Still I feel this delivery qualifies well for the "I love the postman" thread, not least for the used post stamps. I am a frantic collector of polar philately items and as a biologist by occupation, a big fan of penguins :-)
