Major Congrats to the Depp "pullers". Wow.
Here are two more boxes:
Box #410BT3 Scratch & Sniff Peppermint (2nd one)
Autograph Card: Jordan Fry as Mike Teavee
Prop Card: Red Ribbon from Opening Day Ceremony -- 163/340
Puzzle Cards: R2, 4, 6 and 8
(Definitely misplaced a puzzle card.)
Box #2597Box Topper: Scratch & Sniff Peppermint (3rd time)
Autograph Card: Deep Roy as An Oompa Loompa
Prop Card: Contest Announcement Poster -- 385/490
Puzzle Cards: R1, 3, 4, 5, and 7
So, in four boxes I've gotten four different autographs and four different props, all high numbered. And, no, I still haven't "scratched & sniffed", but the tempation is now definitely there.

Jack LondonHi all, my gf and I each bought a box of this set. The cards are nice looking and we both liked them a lot. She did a little better with her box by pulling an auto and a costume, but my prop card was lower numbered.
Her box:
Chocolate Scratch and Sniff boxtopper BT4
5 foil cards
Mrs. Beauregarde's outfit costume card /230
Mrs. Beauregarde autograph
My box:
Bubblegum Scratch and Sniff boxtopper BT1
5 foil cards
Wonka Whipple-Scrumptious Fudgemallow Delight Candy Bar Wrapper prop card #065/190 (Super Cool Card, very happy with it. Wrapper piece has part of the "N" and "K" from the "Wonka" on the front of the wrapper)
I wanted an auto (who doesn't), but am very happy with the prop. I remember that this particular candy bar name was my favorite from the book when I read it as a kid.)

KristyOpened 2 boxes, don't remember the chase but I traded and have a foil set.
Marshmallow and Bubble gum were my boxloaders. I also have a chocolate.
Autos- Mr. Salt
PW- razzle wrapper, Mrs. Gloop

leia214Found the tins yesterday at Target - bought both. I was disappointed though because I got the same bonus card in both - T1.
Was there only one bonus card?
No prop or costume cards but 5 foils between the two so not bad on that.

cverdecYeah, I 'm pretty sure that
Artbox just did the 1 Tin card this time (T1). When I was at San Diego, they said that the Charlie Tin Set included THE tin card, not 1 of the tin cards.
