Thank you for sharing this terrific info.
My intent is to post a set listing for Cobi along the lines of what I've done for Mega Construx, but that's at least a few days off, once I've migrated the Mega data from Hyperboards.
If you don't mind, I'll incorporate the information that you've posted here into the larger list, when it's ready.

No Problem, that´s a nice Idea!
My idea was to gradually insert a picture of the set under each entry. But that take´s some time. (And is not possible at the Moment - just 3 picture´s per Post allowed)

Ok, question: I notice some duplication of set numbers (2342, 2442, 2467 and 2471). Is this accurate? Are there two sets with each of these numbers?
Your list has a bunch of entries that my table does not, so I'll amend my database to correct my omissions, and I'll repost thereafter.
Thanks again!

Ok, question: I notice some duplication of set numbers (2342, 2442, 2467 and 2471). Is this accurate? Are there two sets with each of these numbers? From the set numbers given (2342, 2442, 2467 and 2471) there are not two different sets with the same set number at the same time (e.g in the Cobi catalogue). But Cobi has released (significantly) different designs of the same model under the same set number. New design of set 2467: Old design of set 2467: So in the "transition" phase between the previous release and the updated release you might never know which set you will get exactly, if you just order by set number. Hence this quote from Deinonychus: When Cobi updates these things and then uses the SAME product number as the previous version, you never know which you're getting when you order from a big online retailer. That's why I included the column "release notes" in my setlist, to keep track of all these re-releases ... The only set I know of which is around in 2 different versions at the SAME time is: 2363 "Border Patrol Buggy" One box contains a tan colored buggy, and the other one a green colored buggy and different accessoires. More examples: The same tan colored Panther tank was first released as set 2447, then re-released as "Battle of Berlin" magazine issues 34-37 (set 5583-5586), and then it replaced the content of set 2466, which formerly included a camoflage colored Panther tank. First release of the tan Panther as set 2447: Old release of set 2466: "New" 2017 release of set 2466 ... ... which is actually the old set 2447 again + 2 more minifigs from the Battle of Berlin magazine collection re-release of set 2447: The polish plane "PZL P-23B Karas" was originally released as set 5522: ...and after that in the WW2 airplane collection no. 8-11 (5607-5610), but with different markings: Then set 5522 was re-released with the same markings as the airplane collection: ... and now Cobi is changing the box art again by including the "Historical Collection" logo: So as a collector you (currently) would have to buy the same plane 4 times to get a complete collection :-(

As caracho describes in detail, there are often version changes!
In the list, new editions with the date are shown in brackets. Sometimes, however, there are also new editions that are not immediately obvious. Therefore, here are only the new editions with modification of the instructions included.
In addition, there are about 3-5 new products per month!

Wow--that's quite a busy release schedule!
If you Cobi fans would care to post the new releases here as they come out, I'll add them to the formatted listing.
