I swore I would never buy another box of Harry Potter from Artbox ever after getting three dud boxes of POA, but I broke down and bought 1 box which contained:
At least one base set (I stopped sorting after I put together one) Box Topper 1 Foils 1, 3, 4, 6 and 9 Filmcard CFC6 (featuring the girls from Beauxbatons) 25/300 Henry Lloyd-Hughes as Roger Davies autograph card (I really wanted Cedric Diggory, though...) Costume C4 Viktor Krum - a cool variant with a stitch running down the side - 200/700
Overall, a good box and a purchase I'm happy with (but I still wanted the Ron Weasley or Cedric Diggory autos...). Based on this luck, I'll probably get a box of the Update in April.

Glad to hear you weren't done over once more! (were they POA or POA update?) But even with Davies, an auto, costume and filmcard in one box is pretty damn good

Two of them were POA and the third was POA Update. I managed to completely avoid Sorcerer's Stone, but GoF was calling my name...

Has anyone seen the tins yet in retail stores or are they only available through the mail-in insert?

I haven't seen any of the tins yet, but if they go the way the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory tins went, they will be available both in stores and through the mail. Will keep an eye out and post if I see them in stores.

Hi Chris,
I took a look at your trading site, unfortunately I am only collecting Buffy and Charmed now and do not see anything I can use.
