Is this forum now censored by manufacturers?

Not exactly.
The release date is December 11th. Many dealers (not me) already have theirs. CZE asks that pictures not be posted until the release date. It's a courtesy thing, if people ignore the request, product probably won't ship early anymore. It's actually unusual that breaks are being allowed, Rittenhouse asks dealers not to post ANYTHING until the release date.
Anybody break anything yet? It is sad to see Non-sport forums have so fewer participants then sport card forums who break non sport cards

Like Ed said, he doesn't have his product yet, so a lot of customers don't have theirs yet either. Tomorrow is the official release date. I suspect the dealers who do have theirs will post breakdowns then.

Didn't you also request that posters not post results until 12/11 in the original post.
Hopefully I'll be getting my two boxes today...not sure if I will have to sign for them, but if I do I probably won't get them until tomorrow.

Midnight tonight is when people are supposed to post pics, but E-bay's had quite a few auctions pop up in the last hour or so...
Looks like I won't have my 2 boxes from Cryptozoic until maybe Wednesday but an hour ago I received my blank AP's for working on the set

Autos A1 Andrew Lincoln A4 Steven Yeun A5 Norman Reedus x2 A6 Melissa Suzanna McBride A7 Madison Lintz A8 Madison Lintz (zombie) A9 Lauren Cohen A10 Scott Wilson A12 Greg Nicotero A13 Laurie Holden A14 Sarah Wayne Callies
Costumes M1 Rick M2 T-Dog M3 Shane M4 Carl M7 Lori M11 Shane M13 Carol M15 Glenn M16 Rick M17 Lori M19 Andrea M20 Zombie Sophia M22 Hershel M23 Maggie M28 Walker M29 Walker x3 M30 Walker x3 M31 Walker x3 M32 Walker x2 DM01 Rick/Sophia dual DM02 Hershel/Maggie dual
11 boxes (one box had only 1 costume card and was missing all chase except one puzzle card)
Autos A1 Andrew Lincoln A4 Steven Yeun A5 Norman Reedus A6 Melissa Suzanna McBride A7 Madison Lintz A9 Lauren Cohen A11 IronE Singleton A12 Greg Nicotero A13 Laurie Holden A14 Sarah Wayne Callies Season One A4 Laurie Holden (sig is smudged )
So, wait, 3 of the 4 sketches in here I purchased today? Good lord I went nuts today lol.
For those that know me, know that Walking Dead Season 1 brought me into the hobby. And I'm thankful for that. So it comes as no surprise that I would binge a bit on this set. I think after tonite my binging is done lol.
Onto the case break (1 of 2.5ish). Here are the auto's
Fairly close to those above.
I also had a nice selection of relics, again mostly similar to the above posts. I already finished my master set, and am on to a second one. Don't judge me out there, lol. Part of the fun for me is wondering what I'll get, and just the general trading. I've grown to be a sketch collector, so if I happen to sell my set it'll only be to help obtain more sketch cards.
Anyways I'm sad to say that my case 1 did not have a sketch in it. I quickly wrote Scott G. at crypto (more than once lol) in regards to this. I was only ever going to open one case, but since I didn't hit a sketch, I went on to case two. This beauty came from that:
After doing preorders from many ebayers, i had about 5-6 loose boxes, along with my 2 direct from crypto, and hit this Kyle Babbit
John's post above, in regards to "being ashame more nonsports do not share" kind of hit me, so thought I'd share all of this.
My observations, if any of you care, as I've spent a lot of time along with a few others studying this set:
The Dual Material cards will go way up. I only hit 2, and both were DM03. Out of all those boxes (40+), only 2. Also, many are speculating that there are no "short print" auto's. That may be true, but I'm willing to bet a couple go way up, including Madison/sophie's "Zombie" auto. In fact, if I hadn't spent what I did today on sketches, I would have bought every single one up lol. I do think it's a "shorter sp" if anything. I pulled 3 Reedus/Shane/Lori and yet only one of hers. Only one Rick as well. Note: the other SP may be Andrea's auto's from Season 1, did not pull any.
Anyways those are my thoughts. This set was the most fun I've had in this hobby all year. Now to begin paying off what I've spent, and saving for next year Thanks for reading!

Here's how my case went:
In the first box, I put together 1 base set, with 22 doubles, and no triples. Put all the remaining base cards to the side for now.
Autos A4 Laurie Holden as Andrea (Season 1)
A1 Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes A3 Jeffrey DeMunn as Dale Horvath A4 Steven Yeun as Glenn A5 Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon X2 A6 Melissa Suzanne McBride as Carol A7 Madison Lintz as Sophia (Human) A9 Lauren Cohan as Maggie Greene A10 Scott Willson as Hershel Greene A11 IronE Singleton as T-Dog A12 Greg Nicotero (RV Walker Pic) A13 Laurie Holden as Andrea A14 Sarah Wayne Callies as Lori Grimes
Wardrobes (7 Boxes had 3)
M3 Shane (As a walker) M5 Andrea M6 Glenn M9 Sophia (Human) M10 Maggie M14 Hershel M18 Carl M19 Andrea M20 Sophia (As a walker) X2 M21 Carol M22 Hershel M24 Dale M25 T-Dog M26 Andrea M27 Daryl X2 M28 Walker Horde X3 M29 Walker Horde X2 M30 Walker Horde X2 M31 Walker Horde X4 M32 Walker Horde X2 Almost all the extra walkers I pulled are different, enough variety that I didn't mind them this go around.
DM03 Lori and Shane
Foil Puzzles 2 sets, 5 extras
Foil Character Bios 1 set, 2 short for a second, 8 extras (24 total, 1 box had 1, and another had 3)
SB08 X2 SB09 X2 (Note: I have 1 pack still sealed from the box that was missing 1, going to open it if the remaining boxes I have coming don't have a SB07, wanted to keep 1 pack sealed for my set)
Sketch Card - Hayden Davis
Very impressed with the quality, and coalition. Only have about 3 cards that need to be replaced out of the whole case, most of the time a lot of other trading cards have more than that for a box. This message has been edited. Last edited by: Doc Floyd,
