Quite a nice wake-up call here, folks. If mornings were always this exciting, I'd sleep a whole lot less.
Concerning the amount of chasers, my dealer told me that Artbox printed 3x the amount of boxes this time. If you do the math, that means:
5,000
x 3
= 15,000 + 4,000 retail boxes
= 19.000
Add to that the three tins. Lets say they are each limited to 1,000, meanining an additional 3,000 special cards.
19,000
+ 3,000
= 22,000 - The number Roz surmised earlier on.
This is assuming one per box and not counting the autograph cards.
Guess we'll all know soon enough.
By the way, take a look at the pic of the Harry Robe card I pulled from the retail box. It's the same as one of the ones MPC posted. (Numbered to 2575). Does this mean that the cards in the retail boxes/tins will also be included in the hobby boxes, or did MPC open retail boxes/tins, too?

That is awesome!! So if the case incentives have such high numbers compared to before, what does that say about the amount of cases produced?
I tried to bid on it and I apologize to whomever it was that I upped your bid, if you are a member of this forum. I tried.

Actually, I was never the high bidder at all. I think the prices will go down very soon. They are higher now because no one has their boxes yet!!!!! |

As a bit of a reference the Weasley Quiditch robe was down around the $20 - $25 a month after the first set was released. I think this is a set to wait a little before buying up. With the big three autos I think the box prices will remain strong but probably the bigger winner will be the first set because more people will start trying to complete their first sets.

Although this set has so many more than the last set, and loads over 1000 per card. So they should drop fairly quickly, I would think.

Well that makes no sense with the amount of cards. That is 13,000 boxes, right? And how many costumes and props are there total? Something doesn't add up here.

Does seem funny.
Maybe she did mean Cards Incs allocation but when I mentioned to her that I had heard rumours of 4000 cases total production she said no it was definitely only 1300.

Very interesting. Although, with the case breakdowns I have read so far, it seems like there must be much more than 1300.

definately more than 1300
the film cells 9x900=8100/3 per Case = MORE than 2500 Cases!!!!!
the Costumes app. 23000/8 per Case = MORE than 2500 Cases!!!!

Yes, that´s true.
I think we have 2600 cases in the whole set !
And the half of 1300 have been sent to Cards.inc.
2600 cases are very likely.
Look at Gimlis cards from his 25 cases. He got 76 cinema cards. TaF hal calculated right, we must have more than 2500 cases.
The same with the costume and prop cards. If you calculate how much he got, how much he should get and how much are produced you end up at more than 2500 cases. You end between 2500 and 2600 when calculating these cards and 2700 with only the Cinema Cards.
I think, the truth is in the middle.
We must have 2600 cases.
