Hi
It's not because a card is not on MCM that it means, it doesn't exist. Let's keep finding answers, with 101% proof (As Enrico will say). 10 questions, still have no answers
According to this: Unlimitierte Auflage
http://www.magiclibrarities.net/magic-s ... black.html
El-Hajjáj (El-Hajjâj)
Card title modified
All copies misprinted: wrong artwork
http://www.magiclibrarities.net/magic-s ... n-red.html
Schilftroll (Sedge Troll)
All copies misprinted: Wrong card title (Manahaken), casting cost, card type, rule text, artist, missing power/toughness
http://www.magiclibrarities.net/magic-s ... -land.html
Sumpf (version 3)Swamp
Some copies misprinted: Wrong card title (Herr der geplagten Skelette), casting cost, card type, rule text, flavor text, power/toughness, artist
Back from long vacation so I can again contribute a little.
I can confirm some things after opening some product and collecting some of the misprints. I will need to take scans and double check, but the Drudge Skeleton/Swamp is definately from revised and there's also regular unlimited edition Drudge Skeletons, as the card appears several times on the common sheets and only one art is wrong. In the German fourth edition there's no misprinted Drudge Skeletons. The ö is not indicative of the set as with ü, ä and ö all use rounded dots always. (not that germanuse ä, but maybe we can get some finnish cards at some point...) I have 100+ of these misprints at home on top of regular Skeletons from both sets.
For the Sedge Troll/Manabarbs, there are also regular Manabarbs in wb revised, but I've never seen a correct Sedge Troll from the set, altought I haven't opened enough product to be completely certain. I have 9 misprints and 4 correct Manabarbs at home.
As for the El-Hajjâj/Warp Artifact, I need to check my copies. I should have couple misprints still left. I first bought these as being from wb revised, but it could easily have been just mistake from the seller. I think that I also have a revised copy of correct El-Hajjâj hidden somewhere at home and MCM has a scan of wb german revised regular copy, so I would guess thet the misprint is from 4th.
As for german wb Warp Artifact it's almost impossible to tell if it's actually from either rv or 4th, as it doesn't have any easy letters (Verformtes Artefakt). So while there are plenty of sellers on MCM for both versions of the card on sale, people might have mistaken the editions pretty easily. But there's also plenty of normal german 4th edition german El-Hajjâj's on sale, so there's no good indication for either way from MCM.
Both wb revised and 4th ed had 121 rares so there should only be one version of each rare on the 11x11 sheet, which makes possibly having extra version implausible, unless they used some other sheet size or as others have pointed out the Rivalries/2ps starter boxes version of Warp Artifact explain the correct 4th ed german Warps (on top of the misidentified revised versions) being on sale.
I'll try to check my misprints during this week if I get the time and double check if I have forgotten something.
