My wife and I have been play MW for a bit over a month now. We thoroughly enjoy it. I had initially purchased the Core Set along with FiF, quickly picked up CoK after that, then got lucky and found a sealed FvW on ebay. The latter arrived today and was what prompted me to join the forums.
My only complaint since I've found this game has been the double sided tokens, well those and the double sided health boards. We've learned to live with them.
But now for my question. The binders that came with FvW seem to be of a different quality that all the others. I've gotten used to how the others all swap binder pages halfway through, but in these, the binder pages are reversed. And flipping them around turns everything upside down and reversed. The outer covering is full of bubbles, not smooth like all the previous books. So were these normal manufacturing errors during this sets printing or did I just get lucky?
Still, great game, trying to hold off buying another CS while waiting for 4th ed.

Funny thing: I just snagged a new copy of FvW at a local game store and yeah, the spellbooks are kinda bubbly aren't they? I know I read some reviews of the game that dinged it on that point, so it may have been an ongoing issue. To be fair though, I hadn't run into it until now (and I already had six books - CS, DvN, + one of the spellbook sets).
Short version: you are not alone. :)

No, this is not normal manufacturing. However, we had noted some issues with the spellbooks on earlier products. The bubbling is a known problem. Please contact customer service and we should be able to get you taken care of.

Same here YoJamesBo, bought all the other books before I had found this one. If this had happened to the Necromancer spell book, the weird feeling of the bubbles, it probably would have been a positive thing.
Thanks Laddinfance, sent customer support an email.
