EtA: And we’ve had 17 sets by this point, not just 14.
Sent that message without bothering to count - I knew it was around there somewhere. It's before 7AM here and no coffee.

I have bought them all.
That photo only shows 15. Two of them are wrong.
Huh? I took that picture. There's 17. Are you referring to the fact that two of them are smaller than the others? Those two are Seasons 18 & 19.

I got those two in the "Standard Edition" version. The other 15 in the picture are the "Limited Edition" version. The content on the SE and LE versions of all them are identical. The only difference is the packaging. 18 & 19 were the second and third sets overall, and at the time I wasn't importing them from England to get the LE packaging. I've been doing that since the fourth set overall. I later got a reprint copy of the OG set (Season 12) in the LE packaging.

So yes, it's 17 in the picture. That's all they've released to date.

Yes, that is exactly what I was meaning. The Simplified Editions are not the same at all. They remove one of the most important parts of the releases (the production booklets) and use significantly-inferior packaging. No-one intelligent would wait two whole years for a worse product for no reason.

Actually, if they made them available originally and with the Limited editions from the start, I'd prefer them. I buy the LE's for habit now.

They did. The LEs were available for years before the BEs (Bastardised Editions) were even announced at all.
