I don't care if this set is delayed, as long as MM and CoS are delayed as well Wink

I want my GOFU boxes now but i'm hoping MM gets, at least, a 3-month delay. And, is it just me or the sets are getting a bit more expensive? I wasn't here for the POA/POAU release so i don't know if the boxes went for the same price as GOFU during preorders, so, is this normal? How much do you expect GOFU boxes to go for at eBay, say, 2-3 months after release? What about MM, to pre-order or not to pre-order, do you think boxes will go for way too much after release Undecided? I think MM looks amazing and even the box looks great but if Artbox releases that in a month I'm doomed and so are my credit card bills  Lips Sealed Lips Sealed Praying

I think that we are all secretly hoping for a domino effect delay of about a month for MM and COS. And that's not even counting the Poster SEt and The WOZ from Breygent that is out/due out. I know that I am. With only 375 allocated cases of MM it could become verrrry interrrresting price wise!

No PoAU was pretty much the same price as GoFU, it's just postal prices that have really changed as far as I can remember.

Here in the UK things were very different, the PoAU cases were astronomically priced... which is why a lot of people tried 'grey importing' Roll Eyes

At this point I just wish that Artbox would release a final date for release so we knew where we were and was able to plan better and I could at least give an estimated delivery date to my pre order customers

It's being reported on another forum that the set will be shipped the third or fourth week of May due to a delay in production.

 Yes ,on the NSU board this was posted ....

 " Artbox sent a memo to their distributors today stating that due to production issues Goblet of Fire Update was being pushed back until the 3rd or 4th week of May. "

 whether this is actual or not I have no idea but thougt I'd pass it along ...

 If so then I hope the Moments set will also be pushed back so they don't have close release dates ....

I don't see how GOFU could ship at the end of May and then MM still ship in mid-June.

It's official Tongue, well about as "official" as it gets from Artbox. I just hope that MM is pushed back too (no news on that yet), partly because it usually takes about 2-3 weeks for people to get their boxes, if MM is released before people get their GOFU it would be madness... it might even kill GOFU

I think that the Daniel and other champions autos will keep GOFU alive.

Yep, I even actually think the GOFU will do even better than GOF due to the fantastic lineup of autographers and especially with several new costume cards!!! That was the reason why I went ahead and ordered 2 cases

I gotta agree.
Goblet was a great set. it really was. It was the first time Artbox REALLY got their S**T together lol

But I think this set, staying pretty low in case numbers, will blow GOF out of the water. The costumes are better, the props are better (I still complain that although there were some great variants and all, out of all of the GOF props, the ONLY one that is recongizable is the Dragon Selection Bag...all of the other prop cards are basicly background set decoration!) and the autograph line up is in my opinion better.

I just cannot wait! lol

You notice that they didn't quintuple the cases made like they did with POA and POAU. Smart move there.

Might be getting closer to shipping out...Potomac has backed up it's ship date from May 31st to May 30th.  I know it doesn't seem like that big a deal, but for someone like me, sitting on pins and needles, one day is a vast improvement.  Cheesy.  Plus, it at least shows SOME glimmer of activity.  Roll Eyes

Ha I was thinking the same thing Cindy ROFL!  Basically the checklist will be available in your boxes as the last card in the set.  Then you will no doubt have to keep checking the Yak Shack for a list of inserts and # of the run as well as Jeff Allenders best mathematical guess of auto #'s.

Speaking of which (and I'll post this again Monday), I would greatly appreciate it if the first box openers next week would send me PMs with the card titles (on the back) and print runs.  Then I can update the first post in the breakdowns thread with correct info and Roz can add the cards to the price guide.
