I think you forgot the minifig in the “key data” section.
The book itself is real though, right? I think I heard something about it a couple weeks ago…

if you guys really wanted to hit it out of the park with this one you should have said something about them deciding to include sets for the next five years so that it is relevant for a while.
That would have been funny.
