Playing off something Axe said in another thread...
If you were in 1980 and you're in charge of marketing at TSR, how would you package the game so that it can be on the shelves of every toy store alongside Monopoly?
Leave it as it is--have the Holmes box in the toy stores as a draw, and have the AD&D hardcovers sold at specialty stores and possibly normal bookstores?
Or make the MM, PH, and DMG paperbacks rather than hardcovers, and put 'em in a box (a la OD&D box, but bigger)?
Hmm?
