I wonder how many CBS variants exist


Recommended Posts

There are so many different (and beautiful) CBS variants that I am not sure I know them all and I would like to have your help to make order.
CBS made 8 games and I'm sure 100% that at least 17 different editions exist, plus the language variations. Do I forget someone?
Please let me know if other variants exist.
(please note: the pictures are not of the games of my collection (and you can easily see it), unfortunately I don't have all these variants!)

Yeah, the CBS stuff has long been a thorn in my side. None of the games are so well-done or iconic for the system that I feel justified in dropping the coin needed to get them. But yeah, the artwork on a lot of those boxes is great.

 

It'll be awhile before I have the time to add all of these to the website. Of course, having a nice concise listing will help a lot. So hop to it, cmart! :P I can't put off updating the website until you stop putting off making that list!

I'm sure, I own all german CBS games by now.

Maybe our UK and french collectors can tell us their research results.

And don't forget the Aussis with their special boxes.

how many australian ones have been found now? I know there was a thread on it but im too lazy to look and im not a collector so i forget these things

ouch! that is awesome!!!

 

I was not aware of that thread. Anyway now I know exactly how many variants exist!!! :)

Keep in mind that the thread was created in 2010 and the last post was 2012, so I'm sure more have been discovered since then, though most are likely just language variants, not the art.

Pretty sure it was just DK and Carnival wasn't it? I don't think anyone ever found Venture which would have been next.
