It must be the same as a retail version of the game. When I purchased mine it was exactly like the ones from the stores, and it was a full color edition when it was shipped to me. No real rule changes according to the package either. You just add it to the original Munchkin deck(s) and play on. There are some new twists within the cards themselves, but nothing drastic enough to require a brand new way of playing.

Revised is the reprint with full color art. Apparently the old version didn't have full color. Also may have some rules changes.Source: http://www.sjgames.com/general/press_releases/100514.html

I received it today. The alien on the box was wearing red so I believe mine is the second edition.

My seller gave me the 2013 version and when I inquired they said that there are multiple editions and pictures shown in the product pictures and that the sellers specify which one they're selling. Except none of them actually do specify.

Looking at the other answers, it seems to vary, depending when the game was ordered. The one I got was the original version.

Yes, they are the same thing. If not it would update for free to be the same, but if I remember right, when I bought it it was all up to date. It's totally worth the buy imo

It really doesnt matter which copy you get because with limited edition all you get is really nice 24 page art book. But overall there is really no significant difference in the game. You can get either one but at the time limited edition was pricier than standard.

I think that it is the retail version. I had just bought it for the lic code.

I have not owned the first edition of the game, but from what I understand after a lot of research before I purchased was that it is basically the same game. Some inconsistencies were corrected and the characters were designed slightly differently, but it is basically the exact same game. Just updated slightly.

I think it depends on the seller and the particular color. I asked my sellar about 2 particular colors and she confirmed it was the new model. :)

No, this is the previous version. Pretty much the same thing, just different color options.

I don't know if you guys realize the package of which the new one's light pattern is covered by a piece of paper compared to the old one's light pattern showing clearly. Do you guys think it means something? although it is absolutely genuine and it is not that bad, I feel not so good for this unannounced change. Actually, the old light pattern 500G does exist, but its box is using entirely plastic packing just like the special edition version. Both of them are sold in my local bestbuy store, so I can compare them head to head. In addition, the new one's bottom and sides are plastic, but for the old version only the sides are plastic. It looks like I did too much researches, but just for fun.

I don't know anything about a "new and I improved" version, but the one I I bought was cheaply made and arrived broken when shipped. Save your money and buy a quality product - I purchased something better at Best Buy.

Not to my knowledge. This is the only one showing on Amazon. My guess is the "standard version" has something to do with the game itself (which I haven't played).

I don't believe they reprinted Factions with the 4th Edition. However, it should be usable with the newer edition printing. Some symbol changes on the 4th Ed board may not match up. But, the functionality should be the same.

No, I believe this is just the add on. You're better off finding an all inclusive edition if you dont have the originals already.

As far as I know, it's only a cosmetic difference. I have the silver version, and have no personal experience with the black "special edition," so take my comments with a grain of salt. You may want to do some more online research just to be sure.
