Yes, those are the two packs I have. They have a total of 3 variants in them, all being Turok books... ~Erskine
Did you get these off ebay?


Yes, sir I did. A few years back I won a couple sets.

By "3 variants", you mean two of Tales of the Lost Land, and one for Empty Souls, right?
(... there's not a variant for Turok Spring Break... or is there?)

I need to check on that... I *thought* there were variants of both Lost Land books, but my memory has been known to be shaky.

As an Acclaim collector (and Turok fan) I would be very interested in adding these
to my collection. Anyone with extras, I will pay cash or trade.
BTW..there's only one of these... :D

It HAS to.

SOMEONE has to have said "hmmm...let's NOT sticker a couple of these for fun."
You can always have the one I peeled the sticker off of when I became curious about what the mistake was... :D

I haven't ran across one yet, but someone did say that they peeled the sticker off quite awhile ago and it didn't come off very well.
yeah, half the cover came off with it, otherwise, you KNOW I would have put that sucker up on eBay as a RARE, RARE, even SCARCE variant version... :P

Hey, did anyone ever check the indica on these variants? The cover is different enough on one of them that it may be noted as a later printing in the indica.

Quick check - it looks like everything inside the covers is exactly the same, while all four "pages" of the covers differ.

Weird... so this one came with Turok: Redpath instead of Turok: Tales of the Lost Land?

(...and the Redpath had the UPC on the cover?)

My copy of Eternal Warriors Archer & Armstrong had a black sticker on it because they printed the wrong price on the cover.
