FRANKLIN MINT FOR Â£40

UK only, and the pawns are apparently missing, but hey.

I'm not buying, because I don't really think it's worth it- its too fragile.

In case anyone's interested.

The playing pieces I could do without, I mean I have seen nicer. However, the Franklin Mint edition is hardly worth it.

I agree wholeheartedly. I mean, that could have pulled it off so much better... something like the LGE would have been nice, instead of a coloured band.

And as for those fragile weapons... I'm one of those collectors who collects things they like and know they'll play with time and time again. Whereas... this game is more a display piece.

I've heard horror stories about the FM weapons. They are so brittle that they break in the mail.

My favourite weapon set is the Master Detective weapons. They are solid and got a good amount of heft to them that make them truly wonderful weapon pieces.

Still no bids...

I have no cash. I've just got...

Super Cluedo Challenge
Clue 1992
and I'm waiting on a brand new 2000 Cluedo, in order to replace my old one, which is practically battered.

What's with these cheap prices on the UK Franklin Mint Cluedo games?

This one just sold for Â£67.00!

That would have been worth paying international shipping on!
