"There will be 2 autograph cards per case, 1 costume or prop card per box and at least 3 35mm film cards per case"

That's the latest I have heard - this takes us down 3 inserts a case since we originally heard

Approx

10 costumes a case,
3 props a case
2 autos a case
3 35mm film cards a case

 :-\

Arrggh,
That is a little disappointing if it shakes out that way.  I would hope there is at least 15 inserts per case (not including the 35mm cards) not a big fan of those. However disneys were ok because it was more like a historical slide.

I was hoping the creature cards would be rare but attainable like 1 per case, but not overproduced, if they are more than 750 each or so I think they will have little value.  I think those look to be the coolest inserts to me.

In such a way as becomes very heavy or impossible to complete a autograph master.  :-[

Hmm yes I can't say I am surprised it's only a prop or a costume per box, because that's what it was last time, but it's a shame we heard that there would be more this time...

And considering they have raised there price to dealers about $60 a case ($6 a box), I would think that would be because there are more inserts.  Like LOTR Chrome - I don't mind paying $67 a box for 2 auto's and 1 costume.  Thats much better than $55 for ROTK Update with only 1 insert per box.

You never know that could change again it would just suck to get 10 prop/costume a box and only 2 auto's (of course I am assuming that the costumes are going to be numbered higher than the previous POA).

Wait, so now it is one prop or costume a box?  So if I am going through a box, and get a prop, chances are there will NOT be a costume in there too?

And two autos per case?  Aren't there more signers, props and costumes this time?  Okay, they are making more boxes, but still!!!  

Beckham1 - do you happen to know what these creature cards are going to look like?

I am sure you've seen them!

I've seen these in another post, but I never expected the creature cards to be like the costume/prop cards. Instead, I thought them more like the holos or the 35mm cards. Nevertheless, they are perdy  :D

I just thought they were props.  Didn't realize they were the creature cards!!  And how rare are they supposed to be?  Wasn't it two per case or something?

Yeah - I will agree with you there - I hadn't spotted it said "authentic creature card" across the bottom either until someone (I think kbmum) pointed it out to me!

I think many dealers and collectors (me too) would have less Cases ordered if we get the Ratio Infos earlier. Typically Artbox.

I cannot understand it Artbox dig nevertheless their own grave. Well they sell now more however dealers and collectors will be order carefully in the future such quantities if the market is flood with Basics....... and lower Inserts

So are these creature cards still part of the prop ratio, or do they have their own?  

We don't have any insert ratios for them, but I believe they have been bumped in with either props or costumes.. considering there are now 15 costumes I hope it's in with them!!!!

I hope it is in with them as well!!!  That at least gives me a better shot at getting one, however if you look at their site, they show their pictures in with the prop cards.  They seemed to be numbered to 13.  So 2 creatures and 2 case incentives would bring the props down to 9.

I am just praying I don't get any duds and am able to get the other cards I want from the set afterwards.  I am still trying for a Hermione pink sweater from the first set.

Yep, that's why I thought they were in with the props at first but yesterday I had this in with an email from Mike...



So I am more confused than ever?!!
