Harry Potter Memorable Moments™ Quotable Trading Card Set.

You can look at the price guide for case incentives from recent sets to estimate what any case incentive might cost.  We also have to consider the print run for the card, based on the limited number of cases.  With 375 cases, there should be 75 Magical Water Plants cards, but Artbox makes more for replacements and other reasons.  A few cards that would roughly have the same print run are GOF Yule Ball Poster, Dark Forces book, Dragon Selection bag, Trial Chamber Paperwork (pack-pulled), and Monolith Trophy, and GOFU Rita Skeeter's notepad and Harry's letter to Sirius.

Do you suppose the
2   case be around 200 cards
5   case be around 90 cards
10 case be around 50 cards
25 case be around 30 cards?

Those sound like good estimates.

Hi Guys,

Sorry to be a total dufus but have we now been told what some of the actual props and costumes are because i cant seem to find anything conclusive anywhere. I am getting really hyped about this set now with only 1 week away to have to wait. I just hope we dont have as long to wait as with GOFU here in the UK.

Oooooo!  Very nice, I didn't notice that the list has been updated.  The wand and quill card sounds great!

[Galea]

WOW. Now those are nice double-cards, I'm loving the double props and costumes in this set. Too bad some of them are going to cost a small fortune.

DC4 Crabbe and Goyle double costume (COS)?, now a Ron/Hermione double costume (preferably from POA) would be great, or a Harry/Draco double costume card.

Howdy got told my cases would be arriving in the UK some time next week so it looks like we wont have a repeat of the GOFU delays. Hooray !!

[Sharon]

I can't believe that after all this time they will soon be here  .  It seems like ages since we had a box opening fest on the Shack - and now two come at once.  I may have to keep two Shacks open, one on LOTR and one on MM 

[ECL]

Yay! I can't wait

[HPfamily]

  I may have to keep two Shacks open, one on LOTR and one on MM 

 
AH Sharon!! Thats hilarious!!!!
Thanks for the idea!!

Oh great. Looks like I'm going to go through another "Yes but I found it and it would have been different if you'd opened the pack" fest  Ok, she did find the Vertigo Death Skydisc, Jennifer Garner auto, FOTR Merry auto, Dru & Darla dual auto...hang on a minute...Sharon can open all my packs 

[Rich65]

Tell Me About it Julie and I are going to be opening 1 maybe 2 cases of Memorable Moments, 2 cases of Supernatural and 2 cases of Frankenstein.
If everything hits at once.
Talk about a pack fest.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.
Take Care

Here's a little something I got off the BBS at TheSims2.com and it fits perfectly on here

Delivery Day Etiquitte 

1. Pacing by the door is ok, but do remember to use the restroom so you dont have an accident when your case(s) arrive.

2. When you see the Delivery truck driving down your street, do not run to it and chase it till it gets to your house. This will just make you too tired to open packs.

3. Do not stand outside yelling for the Delivery truck. They will get there eventually, and they can't hear you anyway.

4. Do not tackle the Delivery driver. He/she might not give you your case(s) if you do. They might take offense and call the police and you would have to spend precious pack opening time in jail for assult.

5. Ask the Delivery person if its OK to hug and/or dance with them before you do it. It might be accepted but its proper to ask first.

6. Wait a few moments (10 seconds at least) for the Delivery person to walk away before you close your door and tear the case and packs open with your teeth.

7. Be very careful not to harm your precious cards when you rip through the packaging with whatever sharp object you find handy.

8. Do thank the delivery person, but remember, it's not acceptable to scream at the top of your lungs. Also, jumping up and down makes it hard to sign the delivery sheet.

9. With all of the excitement caused by delivery day jitters, make sure you are fully dressed before answering the door. 3 day stubble and boxers with holes in them are sure signs of your obsession and may scare the Delivery driver away when it comes to future case deliveries.

10. If you must have a sharp object to open the package with, do NOT answer the door with it in your hand. You might frighten away the Delivery guy/gal and they will run away with your case(s) in their hands.

11. If you didn't get ANY sleep the night before, drinking lots of hot coffee is not recommended. If you forget to put down your cup, you might burn the delivery person, causing him/her to run down the street with your case(s) still in their hands, screaming and wailing.

Now make your plans, and everybody have a safe Delivery

LOL

Thanks Mike very funny - awesome!

But I think the extent of our mania extends beyond the delivery guys. We also have to consider etiquette with family members. I can imagine there will be lots of 'shoo'ing by mothers , it's hard, but try to let them enjoy the fun and get them enthused - hand them a pack of (safety) scissors... yeah, you know the ones that aren't capable of cutting through anything

Oh forget it - just retreat to a cupboard or an upstairs bedroom and demolish your box/case

[Sharon]

That's wonderful Mike  .  I know we are guilty of at least 3 of those in our house

Wow - you should have Frankenstein by now if you pre-ordered - get on the phone and chase up your supplier

I think your MM case will be most fun... but then again, I'm biased

[ECL]

Oooooo, so close yet so far away.  I hope the dealer i ordered my MM boxes from will ship quickly!

[bush360]

WOW just been emailed the pictures of the announced costume and prop cards all I can say is my excitement is increasing big style. I cant say how happy i am they are sticking with the look of the cards like the Trophy Prop cards ( I know this was fairly obvious but it is still cool)
