This is not exactly MM, but it does deal with the four movies released so far. I made a couple of scans for general information to supplement what you may have already seen. I have a set. The box is nice looking. It measures 8" x 6" x 4" (Wide x Depth [front to back] x Height) Top:  Front:  Bottom - Showing Number:  Card backs, each movie has a different color: Sorcerer's Stone/Philosopher's Stone - Purple; 4 cards; Numbers 1 to 4; Silver Fronts Chamber of Secrets - Green; 8 cards; Numbers 5 to 12; Silver Fronts Prisoner of Azkaban - Blue; 14 cards; Numbers 13 to 26; Silver Fronts Goblet of Fire - Red; 12 cards; Numbers 27 to 38; Silver Fronts  Sample Gold and Silver Card Fronts: 01 to 04 Back is Hogwarts Coat of Arms  Also included in the box is a redemdption card for the four "Gold Standard" coins. The picture of the coins on the card shows that the "coins" are silver in color. PS: Pay NO attention to the bottom of the box that says"For information on this specific product visit......"  |

Thanks for posting John.  I must say that I'm a little disappointed with this set.  I thought all the cards would all be in full color, not color shades.  Maybe I'll feel differently once I get my set in hand though. |

They look better in hand of course. I've seen them on ebay with starting bids of $9.99 and Bins of $27.99/ $28.00. Shipping at $8.10 ++.
These boxes will not fit in the USP/ebay #4 box or in the Standard Rate box. Hence the $8.10, which is the starting Non Standard Priority Mail rate.
Tom is BINing them at $28.00 plus $8.10. The last time I looked.
I put in the Hagrid and Emma posters for McG and Mike.
By the way, the Ultra-Pro 4 pocket pages work very nicely with these cards.

Thanks for the info and pix John!! Just did a quick search and came across this auction for them ... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Harry-Potter-Premiere-Poster-Card-Sealed-Set_W0QQitemZ6250109314QQcategoryZ73570QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem... where the seller states in an update to his listing: ... "The updated release date from Artbox is now June 5th." I've just checked Tom's auction and no mention was made of this date on there which makes me ask - is this right and if so I wonder where the first seller got the info from? To be honest, I've not really kept up to speed on the release dates for ALL the up-coming Potter sets so if this has already been discussed somewhere else on the Forum then shout up and I'll amend this post! |

Beats me where he got the date from. I have mine now and Captain Collect has them starting at $9.99 and another person as well then there are two (Tom) and another guy at $28.00/27.99. Sci-Fi on here has them in stock, too. They are available for immediate consumption... Personally, I like the set. |

Thank you for posting the pics, John! I had just come across the set a few days ago and was intrigued, but didn't know anything about it. Now, after seeing it, I may have to scrap up some dough to get one. Oh, this card collecting is going to be the end of me, yet. But, hey, you only have one life, right? Might as well live it. |

I'm not sure Artbox knows just yet, they have at least 8 weeks to figure it out. Since Artbox does not return redemptions, I guess those wanting a 'complete' set will have to buy 2 boxes and only redeem 1 of the cards for the coin set. This mistake is going to cost Artbox dearly. They'll be sending 4 fairly heavy cards to everyone, all over the world, that bought a set. That's really got to eat into the profit margins. But it was probably better than having the cards sitting around taking up space while they try to get the Update out and then Memorable Moments right after that. Ed |

Super price Jackie but only good for US buyers! They state clearly on their auction they won't do international shipping ... pity that!  |
