I agree that I'm not I've got to have that card either. I holding my opinion on the set over all until I get to see the actual cards. I think we're all suffering from Harry Potter over load. There have been so many sets recently. It's just been too much.

That's so true. HBPU will the 14th Artbox HP set (with inserts) since the first one (POA) came out in 2004. I think the only licenses that rival it are Star Trek and Buffy/Angel.

I also have to agree! I have the Buffy auto and costume set along with Angel,Spike the complete story and the Buffy MOS and WOS collections as well but this Harry Potter sets are costing me a small fortune!  I can`t believe the HBP Update set is already here! |

And Star Wars... But, hey, 14 sets is pretty impressive. Especially since most have been sellouts pretty quick. But the card overload combined with the current economy is taking it's toll... Ed |

So reading between the lines,there won`t be a price war on  for the new cards. Recession or not,people will find money from somewhere!Maybe in a cookie jar  or under the floorboards!  |

My one must have card is the Bellatrix Wanted Poster. So, I will be willing to buy if anyone is selling. lol.
Like Cindy, I too would not mind the waitress costume actually. I like there are a lot of new things in this set, so we shall see.

The Bellatrix Wanted Poster is definitely at the top of my list!  I'm glad they got that one to use as a prop. I like anything Weasley twins, so that's another desirable one. I'm really liking the costume selection this time, as opposed to the original HBP release--wasn't too thrilled with the costumes in that one. But this time, there is a really nice mix. Love that Harry, Hermione, and Ron costumes are back in the lineup. I'm with Sara and Cindy regarding the waitress costume--I wouldn't mind pulling that one in the least. The autos are good too--Ron/Lavender, Narcissa, Molly, Tom Riddle, and Fenrir really stand out for me. This set looks really, really good. Can't wait...but I have to...until Christmas morning.  |

Per an e-mail from Tom, Artbox will ship on December 16. I asked my husband for a box or two for Christmas. I don't know if he ordered any, but if he did, they probably will not arrive in time for Christmas (by the time Tom gets his cases and ships out box orders).

It's odd, though, that the street date would be too close to Christmas. You would think that an Update set could be put together far enough in advance to match the release of the DVD, which I guarantee won't slip past December 7-8. (Some language versions are out already.)
I remember our hair-pulling when Memorable Moments 1 didn't show up until December 29.

They must be waiting for autos to come in.  MM1 came out in October 2006. I remember it well. My box breaks were so bad for those "premium," overpriced boxes that I almost put my entire collection up for sale and quit the hobby. COS came out at the end of December 2006, so maybe you're thinking of that one. |

That sounds about right, but if some dealers don't get it until the 23rd that means if you ordered from them no boxes for xmas.

There better not be any redemptions if we have to wait this long. I'm a 5 day ship from CA, so that puts it on my doorstep on December 23rd, assuming they get all the orders out on the 16th. Not a good situation at all. Looks like many of my customers won't get theirs until some time in January as I'm out of town for several days around Christmas. Artbox, the Grinch who stole the Harry Potter Christmas.  Ed |

I asked Tom today. He said that the 23rd is not the ship date, that the 16th most likely is.

... COS came out at the end of December 2006, so maybe you're thinking of that one. Yup, I got the order mixed up, even though I had just reminded myself about it in a PM discussion! Street date for COS was Dec 29, 2006. |

Ed, yuck! UPS tells me I'm a 5-day (business day) Ground ship pocket too, but I have been routinely getting mine from Artbox in 4. I can take stuff with me if it arrives by the 23rd, but it definitely could cause some shifts in the holiday travel plan. I was gone when COS was delivered 'tween the holidays and the package sat outdoors for 4-5 days. |
