Saw on line that Fandango theaters had a trading card pack for the recent film. Someone said it consists of 5 cards and a foil card, and you have a chance of getting "a rare relic card"
I have seen 2 packs on ebay. Asking price $ 300 and $ 400 !!!
Someone has one of the relics on ebay. A piece of Elphaba (the green witch)'s costume. Asking price, $ 4,500.00 ! Another person has a Glinda relic for 2.5 K.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Tommy C,

Well, the 2nd part getting completely shut out of Oscar nominations this morning should definitely help make those (ridiculously priced) sales. The first part got 10 nominations last year.
The Broadway musical is famously front-loaded with all of the best songs in the first act. Given all the time the producers had to do so, it's hard to believe they were unable to fix that imbalance for the filmed adaptations, but here we are.

I looked at the completed auctions. A pack sold for $ 150.
There is another relic on ebay now, asking price a "mere" $ 600.
Also, I have seen a bunch of "NYC Pop Up" cards limited to 100 each. At least 7 different ones. Madam Morrible, The Lion, The Wizard, Pfannee and ShenShen, Fiyero, Glinda, and Elphaba. Not sure what these are. Seem to be unconnected to the Fandango cards.
