OOTP Update Cards

[Guest]

[loopy looney]

I was just reading the comments and saw that there was going to be a new Daniel Redcliffe auto whth someone else, and i was thinking maybe it would be him and Cho. Since they had a fling in the movie...but then again we already have a Cho auto!

[ferdinand_the_yak]

We've had 5 HArry autos, so a Cho-Harry dual is very possible!

[hockeyron]

Actually I just got some info about 30 minutes ago from Artbox  and it says this :::

  ~~ DANIEL RADCLIFFE and KATIE LEUNG signs a
 DOUBLE AUTOGRAPH!! ~~

 the rest is what already was posted  --- a Carter auto will be a great addition  and the Dumbledore/Voldemort Dual costume looks interesting as well  !!

Tom Breyer emailed me a copy of the press release from Artbox.  It's dated November 16.  I wonder how long it's been available. 





I'm sorry about some of the cards being hard to see.  They were that way in the orignal copy of the release. The card under Bellatrix's autograph card shows of picture of Azkaban Prison.  It may be the prison uniform card.  Tom said to look for something special with the binder. He also promised more information next week.  Keep your fingers crossed.

Hmm... I have a question -

With the update packs, don't they usually include the autographs that were in the original release as well, but as actual cards, not redemptions?

I've ordered one case from Tom... my wallet is shrinking away from me (or rather, my savings account), but how many cases would everyone else suggest getting?

[kbmum]

Artbox has never taken leftover autos from the first release for a movie and inserted them into update packs.  They do use the leftover inserts (autos, costumes, props, filmcards, and case loaders) for SDCC mystery boxes/bags.

Since we might get more info next week, you might want to wait until then to decide whether to increase your order.

I love the idea of a HBC auto but I am disappointed with the props that have been announced.  More doilies and curtains  .  I know this is a pattern with now with the HP sets but I do wish they wouldn't keep repeating props - as you may have guessed props are my favourite cards 

[LikORish-Spider]

And the coustumes are getting old, too. I mean shirts, trousers, robes, cloaks....
What ever happened to Dobby's sock, the hats that Herminone made for the house elves, 
Mr and Mrs Weasley's clothing, etc. Was everything CGI?
There's got to be something else, don't you think?

[sfmuggle]

You folks are right come to think of it.  I guess ArtBox isn't very creative in that it's the same props but, at the same time, I've not collected from all the sets yet.  Something like Dobby's sock would be so cool (or something unique like that).

I also heard from another distributor about the double auto (Radcliffe/Leung), which is a bonus.  Haven't heard anything about a Voldemort/Dumbledore card that was mentioned earlier.

Thanks for the updates.

oooops! just noticed the Dumbledore/Voldemort dual costume from sell sheet 

[PepperD]

Hmmm  more doilies and curtains kinda stinks. 

Good autograph cards.  One day I hope for a Harry and Ginny   

And if that turns out to be my only harry card I can live with it.

BTW  sorry if this is an old question but are there any chances of Tom Felton doing an autograph?

They will probably wait until Half Blood Prince as his character features quite heavily in the book.  Hopefully...

[ECL]

cool! looking forward to this set

[sfmuggle]

I hope Gary Oldman signs for OoTPU.  A Harry & Ginny dual would be very very nice.  I'll keep praying too

I think we just might see a Harry/Ginny auto card in the future. I would love a Harry/Ginny/Ron/Hermione auto card to represent the couples. 

I would agree with what was said above, Draco is quite prominent in Half-Blood Prince, so it would make sense for him to sign for that set. 

I'm sooooooo hoping for a Snape auto card for HBP!

Artbox just issued another release.  Some of the info is the same as the first one.  I've made the text bold where there's new info.   The release had images of some of the cards, but I'm having a problem capturing just the pictures to include them here.  If someone else could help with that, please let me know.

Didn't Artbox tell someone way back when that they had a cauldron and test tubes for the Sorcerers Stone set?  It kind of makes me wonder. 

[terryweasley]

Here is a copy of the press release, and the cards shown on it.  Unfortunately it doesn't appear that they have the costume and prop material included at this time.  A Thanksgiving gift from Tom.  Thank you Tom.

Is this a new release date?

[kbmum]

The listing says the dealer will ship approximately December 21.  The seller must have revised the description.  The last I heard from Tom, the release date is December 14.  We don't know when Artbox will ship the cases, but maybe someone can post that info.

Thanks, terryweasley! For the past few sets, Artbox has released scans of card mock-ups, with no swatch.
