This series deserves its own thread.
Archives vol.1 is really dear collection to me many ways, because I remember how my dad bought it for me from local game store. I had played some Lucas adventures (like Maniac Mansion and both Indiana Jones games) before, but this collection is a real reason why I fell in love with LucasArts adventures. Only my old computer knows how many times I played Dott, FoA and S&M through during the next few years
Vol1. have some interesting and rare box variants too, like "Christmas package" and "Special Hint book" version (in the picture).
I did some calculations and here are the weights I got for different boxes:
Vol1. 1st release = 407 g
Vol1. 2nd release = 380 g
Vol1. + Special Hintbook = 649 g
So, enclosed hintbook seems to be pretty hefty (around 242 g), but do you happen to know what kind of Hintbook there is inside that box? Is there a unique hintbook for this release or multiple hintbooks for different games? I know this variant is extremely rare but have you ever seen an opened CIB copy?
