It appears that the HBP set has a release date of June 24 (with a ship date earlier than that). There are no details yet about the inserts.

The skiving snackbox and nose biting teacup boxes should be popular.

Shocked the 2-case incentive is a generic student costume...
I also agree it is a bit much with the Slughorn items. I would have liked to see more of the main casts costumes as well.

This is only just the first wave of info right? It could change.

We will eventually get more info about the rest of the autos and print run numbers for the costumes and props. I'd like to know how many cases will be produced.

Oooooooooooh... so glad I gave MM2 a miss! I feel the card pulling urge stirring within... however, I'll wait until a bit more info is released  You'd think with the set being less than a month away, we'd have some solid information and a sell sheet (I know it's Artbox, but I can still dream  )

Even at this early details stage, this is looking like an awesome set and i'm glad i passed up on getting a MM2 case.  My only tiny gripe is that practically half the prop cards are Slughorn related  . Even if they do stay like that though i won't mind too much. I honestly didn't think the release date would be that soon so i'd better get saving QUICKLY!.

The movie premieres are July 7 in Japan, July 8 in the UK, and July 9 in the US, and then the movie comes out July 15. I'm not so sure Artbox will hold to the June 24 date, but the set will be out before or right around the time of the movie release. My concern about the Slughorn cards is that HBPU will have a Slughorn dual costume, a Slughorn dual prop, and a Slughorn dual costume/prop, all made from items used in the HBP set.

Artbox has gone back to the regular case breakdown of 10 costumes, 5 autos, 3 props and 3 filmcards.

Did you forget the "autographed costume" card? Don't forget the Head of Houses "Quad" with Slughorn, McGonagall, Sprout and Flitwick!

Thanks for the list kbmum  I guess there will also be an HBP update set to following next year!  Some of the props look interesting and i wonder how many Harry/Malfoy dual auto and Hermione auto cards will be available?I would say (100) of each!

Generally, when WB releases an HP movie in the summer, it releases the DVD in the fall, in time for Christmas. That would be approximately when Artbox will have an update set. So, HBPU will probably be out by the end of this year.

P3 Cushions from the Burrows (I think the first word is "cushions," but I could be wrong)
It does say "Cusions". I think we can safely assume that you fixed it correctly. It would have been macabre if they made props out of any of the Weasley "Cousins".

They normally seem to shoot for around 100 of each Ultra, but sometimes they have been as few as 50 (3D 2nd and OOTPU) and sometimes the scarcest items have been 150 or so.

If Breygent can make Dexter props from the hand and foot of the Ice Truck Killer's victims, maybe we could have Death Eater victim cards, too.  I can see it now. Everybody wants the variant that *isn't* splattered with blood.
