The front spells Frodo's name correctly, but the top says Frodon. Is that an intentional French spelling? An error on the whole production run? A limited super rare print error? That will probably be corrected on the next batch... Why would it be corrected? The set's name in French is often on one side of the box. It is a shame they don't put the surname too. Frodon Sacquet always sounds funny. An interesting tangent is that Bag End is named after the French cul-de-sac, which when said in English sounds funny to the French.
