Thats from ether the left or right side at the bottom of the package. You can see the little clown face at the bottom of the swatch.

Here's a question:
If there are 538 total candy cards, are there approx 108 of each kind (Give or take because 5 won't divide evenly into 538)?  If they turn out not to be evenly distributed, which one do you think is most rare?

That's a tough one to answer. Undecided  Have you looked in the Price Guide?  In the comments section most of us have been typing in the candy type.  If they're tallied, we may get a good indication of the distribution of the types.

Okay, I took it upon myself to check it out because you made me curious Kelly.  Here's what's recorded so far:

Bertie Bott's Beans - 14
Lik O'Rish Spiders - 17
Exploding Bon Bons - 15
Black Pepper Imps - 13
Fizzing Whizzbees - 17

I'm not sure if we could come to any conclusions yet, but the distribution does seem pretty close.

Thanks, Anna!  I had a sick kid a while ago and just got back on the forum to do the tally.  Thanks for doing it for me. Wink  Looks pretty even.  It seems like candy card auctions are starting to slow down on ebay also.  Not too many on auction this week.

Great idea!!!  We should keep track of that to see what it the most rare.  I have a Black Pepper Imps one we pulled from the pack.  But does anyone know where I can find what this package looks like in full?

I've been wondering about that too. Huh  I think I'll check out the beginning of Sorcerer's Stone when Harry and Ron are pigging out on the train with all the candy.  Maybe I can do a freeze frame and spot one.

The scene on the train is scene 9.  It's hard to see most of the candy because it's either on the cart or piled up on the seat.  There are close-ups of the chocolate frogs and Bernie Botts boxes.

I also looked at the Honeydukes Tour on POA disc 2 and a similar tour on the Azkaban (Warner Bros.) website.  You can see some of the candy, but there are no close-ups.  If someone has a DVD that allows you to zoom in, you might have better luck.

I can zoom in on the movie, but I don't think I can in the tour of honeydukes.

The most Wizard Candy cards I've seen on ebay in a while.  Nice ones.  A Shack members auctions too, I believe.  Smiley

Has anyone spotted any Wizard Candy prop cards lately? I have been searching endlessly for a nice one that is set at a fair price. 

It's one of the ones I would love to have in my collection, but I haven't been able to get one.   Sad

Heck, I'm not all that picky.  I would be thrilled with any of them.  I would just like one with a nice swatch.  I've done searches on  Ebay!, but I haven't found any lately.  Sad
