they say 100, and they say 1 per person, but I have NEVER had a problem with getting them at all times of the day, and getting a lot more than just one.
I assume you mean the "mystery box" correct?

well ok. let me branch out a bit.
two years ago, they were limited to 50, 1 per person, and there was a line and they sold out.
last year, they said they had 100, but I went multiple times during the day and picked one or two up...my advice would be to go there first thing on preview night (I imagine they will have some for sale then) and ask them about them this year because who knows, maybe they went back to less and decided not to make as much money lol.

Oh, goody! I'll get a couple of goodies! Artbox is my 2nd stop on preview night. My first is the Kotobukiya booth for the Utapau Trooper http://www.starwars.com/collecting/news/koto/news20070621.html3rd is the AFX booth to see about preordering a Galactica ship. Since this will be my one and only trip to SDCC, I've already got everything planned out! I'm such a nerd. |

They had like 250+ mystery boxes last year. I managed to buy like 5 of them. The limited to 100 things you guys are talking about, are they the same or something completely different that I missed out on?

I think everyone is talking about the mystery boxes, but Artbox did have other limited items. There was the tie set from all four houses, which I think was limited to 100 made. There was also the trophy card, and maybe some others, but I just can't seem to remember. I am sure someone else will.

nope RNS, you were right, for Potter last year there were $75 mystery boxes, the 4 card set, and the trophy card. There were other exclusives though from other Artbox sets. I was TOLD last year that they were limited to 100 mystery boxes but I honestly think they had MANY more each day. and Kelly, yeah, I got an iPhone...I buy whatever Steve Jobs tells me to  I have been an Apple loyalist since I was 12 and have converted a good 20 people to Apple. |

Oh, I see what you are talking about. No, they had 100 per day. There were 500 boxes in total. I remember being told that there were 500 boxes for the entire con. There were indeed 100 Tie Sets (which didnt really have a purchase limit, more like one per visit). |

It really doesn't matter how many they have each day. There have been hints, promises and veiled threats that I won't be allowed back home unless I get back loaded with goodies Bryan - How will I find you for breakfast? I don't think diners will take kindly to me asking if they are the ones dishing out free food |

BTW, if you see a woman at the Artbox booth on Wednesday night in a baseball hat, and carrying a messenger bag with a Flight Safety logo on the side-that would be me! |

Hmm... badges would have been a good idea. Since you are rather an international group swapping mobile numbers isn't 100% helpful. PM some photos between you, and arrange a time, and you could all hold a carnation |

Ill be there, most likely wearing a black trenchcoat or a pink sweater with hearts and stars all over it. I wear red creepers. I have unique hair (cut short except my bngs hang down to my mouth), blonde, you wont miss me. ll probably be around the Artbox booth often.
