Differnt Mercadian Masques Tournament Packs?
First: i don't remember if we already talked about this before. If so this can be deleted.
While collecting all those WOC/ISBN/UPC codes for the Card Sets page i stumbled accross this two Mercadian Masques Starters:
As you can see the right starter has "Watch Magic World Championships on espn2" printed on it. (It is not additionally printed on the tournament pack, its one whole print and it was sealed)
The Tournament Pack has the same codes like an the normal MM Tournament Pack.
I got this starter for participating in the Mercadian Masques Block Limited at the 10th Anniversary Celebration draft Event at Worlds 2003.
Does anyone have information on this?
I am a bit confused because i thought a limited set won't get reprinted?

Worlds was being aired on ESPN2 back when Masques was new.
They didn't reprint a limited set for these tournaments. I'd suspect WotC just has a few (dozen) cases of each set in storage somewhere, waiting to be brought out for events like this.

I am not clear on something - did they actually print it on the pack, or re-wrap them in plastic with the text on it?Worlds was being aired on ESPN2 back when Masques was new.

It was printed directly on the starter boxes.

Limited sets won't be reprinted later, but they go through several print runs during their 'in print' status.
Hence the difference you are seeing.

I remember getting the ESPN2 version at the Masques prerelease. Since then I've seen both floating around.
