Can anyone tell me the SKU number of the Tunnels & Trolls 5.5 box set or how best to identify it? I'd like to buy one eventually but I want to make sure I get 5.5 and not 5.0 (which I already own).

Mine is #6201. But, it looks like it's just the old box, which they are still using. It has no barcode.

All of the 5th edition boxes that are immediately to hand for me - 8 of them* - are #6201. The UK edition box has no SKU, nor a barcode, as far as I can see. * Some were just used for packaging for other products. I'm not really trying to collect them all, honest!  |

Also, the 5.5 rulebook has a fifth chapter, while 5.0 has only 4, if that helps.

There was a boxed SKU 6201 up for bid on eBay but it wasn't opened. I want 5.5 (I have 5.0 and want to read the .5 extras!) and was hoping I could determine what edition I was going to bid on.

I've just had a look at my own box set with 5.5 in it and it has the 6201 SKU number on it. The rulebook inside has SKU number 9101 on it but so has the 5th edition rulebook in my UK T&T box set. I had a quick look at the FBI website to see whether Rick has any old copies of 5.5 but it is currently listed as "out of print" Sorry, I thought I was being helpful but having read this back, it doesn't come across as at all useful |

Its a shame that if the long promised 5.5 PDF hasn't materialised yet
If only the extra pages could be posted on the FB website( or somewhere else with permission) instead or umtil

Given that it's out of print... Here is Ken's House Rules, which make up the "meat" of the .5 update. The one in the book has some better editing, and I haven't checked to see if it's word for word. Ken's House RulesThe remaining parts are the TrollWorld Timeline, and some articles from the old SA magazine, none of which I have bothered to read. |

I was at a bricks-and-mortar store the other day and there was a shrink-wrapped SKU #6201 box on the shelf. It felt kind of heavy to me. The guy working there said he did some research and assured me it was 5.5. I explained to him that if it wasn't then I was not going to be very pleased and wouldn't want it. He agreed to open it. Inside: Deluxe Tunnels & Trolls, paperback edition. Wow.

As I said, they are still using the old boxes.
