Hmm, don't know how many pieces are in a chess set (100?) but if anyone gets them all, would they be willing to take a picture and post it? It could take a *long* time to compile since it seems the magazine and pieces aren't even on the shelves and it's 'til 2007... O_O ;-;

Why, oh why does TP have to torcher us with pictures... @.@ Anime cry

There are only 32 chess pieces in a game (though you can -- theoretically -- have more). It'll be a hard item to collect. But, there are 36 different pieces, including extra Kings. Extra Kings makes no sence, though having an extra pair of Queens does. I hope they're nice pieces and not the quality of the flimsy $5.99 sets you get at CVS. They'll probably also be small. I'd want the pawns to be at least an inch high, and the king 2.5 inches.

Not that I won't be getting it anyways.
