The Complete Asterix Box set (38 titles)
J**D
The perfect gift for an Asterix fan.
The speed of delivery and condition of the books were above expectations. The packaging was such that the collection could have probably been air-dropped from five hundred feet without damage. Opening the package was like cracking a safe. As noted, the books were in perfect condition, the printing and art are crystal clear and the colors are bright.My only criticism is that the books are not numbered on their covers. If you manage to scramble them you can refer to the list inside most front covers to straighten them out. It is easier to put number stickers on them right after you finally get the box open.My grandson is a huge Asterix fan and this hoard will provide me with lots of birthday, Christmas and just-because gifts that I know will be appreciated.

Love this! So much so my boy may not get it for his Birthday I may keep it!
First of all the seller packed this beautifully and it arrived quickly, just a couple days.Secondly I forgot how much I love this books or how many of them I couldn't get and read from my library as a kid.This is all individual books each as originally printed, not stylized or cheapened for the box set.Beautiful colors and printing and still just as funny as I remember.Can't wait to share them with my kids!

Great price
Even if the boxing and two books were a bit damaged, the price is great for the whole collection.

A great collection!
I purchased this collection because it had 38 books, the other box set I was considering had 37 books. Asterix and the Chieftain's Daughter was released 6 months ago and is book #38. While the books obviously come in a box, it's not a display box so you have to pull each book out to find the one you want. I feel that for $250+ a display box would be a nice addition.This really is a great set and if you're a big Asterix fan it's definitely worth adding to your collection. I grew up on these books so it's awesome that I get to take the adventure again with my son as we read them together.One of my pictures shows the spines with the authors names. You can see where Uderzo took over after Goscinny sadly passed in 1977 and then when Uderzo retired and handed responsibilities of the books to Ferri/Conrad. I haven't read the newer books yet but I'm sure they follow the same great format as Ferri/Conrad were mentored by Uderzo.The complete list of 38 books in this set:Asterix the GaulAsterix and the Golden SickleAsterix and the GothsAsterix the GladiatorAsterix and the BanquetAsterix and CleopatraAsterix and the Big FightAsterix in BritainAsterix and the NormansAsterix the LegionaryAsterix and the Chieftain's ShieldAsterix at the Olympic GamesAsterix and the CauldronAsterix in SpainAsterix and the Roman AgentAsterix in SwitzerlandThe Mansions of the GodsAsterix and the Laurel WreathAsterix and the SoothsayerAsterix in CorsicaAsterix and Caesar's GiftAsterix and the Great CrossingObelix and Co.Asterix in BelgiumAsterix and the Great DivideAsterix and the Black GoldAsterix and SonAsterix and the Magic CarpetAsterix and the Secret WeaponAsterix and Obelix All at SeaAsterix and the ActressAsterix and the Class ActAsterix and the Falling SkyAsterix and Obelix's BirthdayAsterix and the PictsAsterix and the Missing ScrollAsterix and the Chariot raceAsterix and the Chieftain's daughter
