Willem would hold the Guinness world record for largest Carcassonne collection except the people from Guinness World Records don’t want to add the category.

I’m getting ready for C3 even if ZMG isn’t.

Hearing this just makes me want to be the Guinness World Record Holder of the greatest number of records that Guiness doesn't want to add a category for.

Another spin-off added to the collection!

My custom C3 sticker arrived today. I applied it to the case from the other day and transferred what little C3 stuff I had into it.

Do you have a picture of it? I'm very curious.

There isn’t a lot to see, but I am happy to oblige.

20th Anniversary base game, expansion, river, score track, and meeples. Signposts, Peasant Revolts, and Gifts.

Love it. Personally I could never do something like this, because I just need to keep everything in its original box, but I love how compacted and "easy to use" it looks. Kudos!
Can I ask you where did you find that tuckbox for double tiles? For my German Castles and Markets of Liepzig I had to make my own, by merging two of the normal size

I make all my own tuckboxes. You can find them in the downloads section.

My C3 collection can fit in the 20th Anniversary box for now, but in the future it won’t. My C1 and C2 collections outgrew their base game boxes and are stored in identical plastic cases. There are videos showing all the upgrades I’ve made to both sets.

Awesome work Scott! Hopefully Zman get their act together and help you fill the box out....

The very same day we received some official updates about something that's half a spin off, half an expansion I got in the mail something that's very similar in nature: The Wheel of Fortune! This is the original, pre-BB5 version and if I got it right it should be the dutch version. I was very eager to put my hands on it!

Also, an italian copy of C1 Inns & Cathedrals

I travelled to the Netherlands over the weekend, and people who have seen me post before will know; that means Carcassonne pick ups!

A decent stack this time! including a sealed Dutch WoF, a whopping 4 French boxes (Thanks @Linksux !!!), and some more smaller stuff!
Also, Linksux included a copy of the French version of the Gifts, as well as 2 mini expansions that have been released by ZMG in French! I had no idea they existed, and now i've got them!

Another surprise gift from France, actually came from Brazil!

This is a small travel box that was made in 2020 by a very talented member of Carcassonne Brasil, and holds a whole base game + meeples!
I had seen it online, but as they sold out very quickly (unsurprisingly), i was not able to get one. Now i have been gifted one, and i am so happy with it!

The box is shown closed on the left, with a beautiful piece of woodwork art next to it! Another present, and you can understand my jaw dropped when i was unpacking stuff
