This was replaced by the newer:
veymey puS neH chenmoHlu'pu'
Limited Edition.
(i.e. "Only a few {veymey} have been made.")
{vey} appeared again on the box cover:
boSwI'vaD veyvam le' chenmoHlu'
Collector's Edition.
(i.e. "this special {vey}, made for the collector")

So {'aplo'} would be the game box itself. Including all its contents (board, cards, game pieces, dice)?
What's the current consensus on {vey}? Copy? Issue? Edition? Version? Set?
