I just received my two boxes of Harry Potter Memorable Moments, so here are my breakdowns: Box 1: #813 CC2 (x2) You would think there would be 1 pair per box! BT1 R2, R5, R7, R8, R9 DC5 (Krum & Diggory)(155/275) Large seam running through Cedric's costume material. And the one card I was really hoping to pull: Maggie Smith autograph!!! I was VERY happy with that box! Box 2: #1481 CC1, CC2 BT4 R1, R2, R4, R7, R9 C4 (Goyle) (150/535) Solid green PC2 (Lupin's shirt and the Marauder's Map)(045/110) I really like the PC2 card, as I've yet to get a marauders map card from any set. It has some text and lines on it too, not just a circle of parchment! I'm not sure how I feel about the base cards yet, kind of different. This is my first black and white card set (photos are in black and white) and some of the pictures are a bit dark and muddy...hard to see. A bit small too. Overall though, I really enjoyed these two boxes! | ||

Here's my case results. My first impression from the base set is that the universe is unbalanced now: I see a lot more "open quote" marks than "close quote" marks. I found the expected number of chase, but nothing particularly special (considering the numbers for the entire set). No Hermione or Minerva. On the good side, my resin box came through undamaged. I can see that shipping was one reason they decided to include only one resin box per case, at an empty weight of 2.6 kilos just for the box! Harry Potter Memorable Moments Case-Topper: Dementors/Harry/Sirius Box 2845 CC1-CC2 BT3 R2-R3-R5-R6-R7 Costume: C1 (481/660) Crabbe Box 2001 CC1-CC2 BT3 R1-R4-R6-R7-R9 Costume: C4 (330/535) Goyle Prop: P3 (022/160) Basilisk Skin Box 1510 CC1-CC2 BT2 R1-R3-R4-R6-R8 Costume: DC4 (427/460) Goyle Auto: David Bradley Box 1518 CC1-CC2 BT3 R1-R3-R4-R6-R8 Costume: C5 (285/360) McGonagall Auto: Eric Sykes Box 0101 CC1-CC2 BT1 R1-R3-R4-R6-R8 Costume: DC1 (118/310) Ron Auto: Sykes (duplicate) Box 2857 CC1-CC2 BT4 R1-R2-R4-R7-R9 Costume: C3 (349/660) Dudley Prop: P1 (149/235) Practice Broom Bristles Box 1335 CC1-CC2 BT4 R2-R3-R5-R7-R8 Costume: DC7 (077/210) Fleur/Cedric Auto: DE6 Richard Rosson Box 0112 CC1-CC2 BT1 R2-R5-R7-R8-R9 Costume: DC2 (171/235) Fred/George Auto: DE4 Paschal Friel Box 1327 CC1-CC2 BT2 R1-R4-R6-R7-R9 Costume: C4 (306/535) (duplicate) Prop: PC2 (022/110) Marauder's Map/Lupin's Shirt Resin Box 2015 CC1-CC2 BT4 R2-R3-R5-R7-R8 Costume: C3 (046/660) (duplicate) Case Summary: Expected numbers of low chase 10 costume cards (6 costumes, 4 dual -- 2 dupes) 5 autos (3 autos, 2 auto/costumes -- 1 dupe) 3 prop cards (2 props, 1 prop/costume) 24 base sets, 2 cards short of 25th 4 complete foils sets | |||

cc1-cc2... is that coin card one and coin card two? If so then that means you got the same two in every box? ____________________ and in my mind I know I'm fine... | |||

Yes, each box is supposed to have a set of the coins. ____________________ Some of my traders: Star*Mystyk, davelennox, Jack London, Chris Byrne, TAT, spidergoblin, Brimaster, cverdec, mac13, mars53, Ryan Cracknell, wuher, angelchick182, FRANK AMICO, batmancity, Card Reaper, Over_Worked_Mom, Dewman, THX2112, venom5liter, batmancity, barobehere, KADRAN00157, browninga5m, trade-a-card, FCB, wolfie, ghostrider666, Brian A.

You can get different results, however. I had two CC2 cards in one of my two boxes and I saw somewhere that someone had 3 of the coin cards in a box. It was a great box, so no complaints from me! | |||

2 Eric Sykes auto's isn't bad though! | |||

I only needed one, and would gladly swap one for a Dame Maggie. I've only seen breakdowns for 2.6% of the boxes so far, but it looks like Sykes and Bradley are the most prolific signers, and the only two autos that are showing up at two in some cases. Somebody else got "exactly" the same case as I got, down to the autos, props, and costumes. But the early reports say that the Maggie Smith auto isn't super-super-rare, and is more like the Michael Gambon auto from GOFU. Here's the reports and projections from 98 boxes: # seen - projected to 2250 - signer 1 - 50 - Emma Watson as Hermione Granger 1 - 150 - DE3 Philip Rham 2 - 150 - DE4 Paschal Friel 5 - 150 - DE5 Olivia Higginbottom 3 - 150 - DE6 Richard Rosson 7 - 300 - Maggie Smith as Minerva McGonagall 6 - 300 - Jason Isaacs as Lucius Malfoy 10 - 500 - Eric Sykes as Frank Bryce 12 - 500 - David Bradley as Argus Filch I assumed that the DE auto/costumes would turn out to be the same in scarcity and assumed 20% more were signed than the 1850 you'd expect from 3750 boxes. But it's still awfully early! | |||

For once I'm hoping to get the common autos rather than the scarce ones. My boxes should arrive tomorrow and I'm hoping for a Eric Sykes auto and a Maggie Smith auto. | |||

You still got a nice selection, Raj. Did you buy from this country? | |||
|
Gold Card Talk Member |
Yes. BTW, click on the scans for bigger images. | |||

Just picked up a box. I received: Nice looking set. Cards are kind of curved due to the card stock and the wrappers were tough to open though. I was actually hoping for a Jason Isaacs autograph. If anyone wants to trade for Eric Sykes, e-mail me. | |||
