What a surprise! This was in an email from NSU:
We wanted to let you know about several Non-Sport Update happenings. First of
all, for those of you who will be attending the Philly show on March 31 and
April 1, we will be holding roundtable discussions with the manufacturers who
will be exhibiting at the show, Rittenhouse Archives, Inkworks, Breygent
Marketing, and Artbox (yes, you read that correctly! Artbox will be exhibiting
at Philly for the first time).

The round table discussions are only on Saturday. I hope Artbox will be there on Friday, as I can't make Saturday  ***UPDATE***Artbox will be attending both days. I just checked with the person who runs the show  |

This is not a huge show like San Diego Comic con, so I doubt they will have them. But, with that said, I will be there as soon as the doors open, just in case  |

Artbox took a lot of flack for selling those grab bags at Comic Con last year. They might not do that again. I'm hoping there will be some good costumes and props on display, and Sara can post pictures. |

This is a much smaller show - while there are always promos at the door, and manufacturers have promos and sell sheets at their tables, remember, Mike is flying across country to attend, so I'm not sure how much "stuff" he'll be bringing, or if he's bringing any staff, etc. to do anything really elaborate. *I* will be at the Manufacturer's Roundtable on Saturday morning (go figure) and I will ask nicely if Mike has anything special that he'd like to share with our friends on Yak Shack - I find it's always better to be upfront and ask, rather than hit the table 6 or 7 times ... |

Isn't the quad card all four champions costumes and auto's? Or is that not confirmed at all. I thought someone had confirmed that (maybe I am wrong)...although I think that would make the most sense for a GOF based set.

I think there is an article in NSU that confirms this info actually.

NSU has one article from the current issue on its site, but it isn't the one about HP. Your local comic book/trading card store might carry the magazine, or you can order it directly from NSU. I haven't seen any yet on eBay, but some will show up soon.

Yes I thought the quad card was the champions costumes and autos but I was wondering how it will be done. Will there be one card with four costumes and another with 4 autos or a two and a two or just a four autos or just a four costumes. I mean if it was all four champions costumes and autos wouldn't this be an 8 card, not to mention incredibly crowded I am just impatient to know what it is |

Yeah I thought that too Sharon, but apparently it really is all going on one card... let's hope that somehow it's more of a design success than the Triple  |

New info :
Just heard from Artbox. They are doing an exclusive 4-card Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Collector's Update Set promo set for the upcoming Philly Show. The cards will be foil-stamped in green and exclusive to the Philly Show. We are told that this will be very limited (just 400 or 500 sets) and thus expect that Artbox will only allow collectors one set each
