61 packs? Holy ****. Well, I guess Disney is going to be getting a ton of money from me.

I was told about this a couple of months ago. Guess I forgot to mention it, probably because I got so frustrated being on the phone with them and getting different stories every time.

I was told there COULD BE 61 total. They don't know until the "higher powers" give them info. At that time, they did not have confirmation past envelope 14.

I finally took advantage of the free D23 membership and later joined the card club in my name. The first one is in my wife's name.

Last week I received cards 100-103, in addition to envelope 1; with the variant lithograph card.

Whats the best phone number for the Collector Cards? I still haven't gotten pack 18 & 19.

Anyone gotten pack #20 and #21 yet? I was told they shipped.

Just got my packs:

1st Series Pack #20:
159-Disney Magic Moments: The Rescuers
160-Disney Villains: Edgar - The Aristocats
161-The Lion King (cel)
162-Behind the Scenes: The Little Mermaid
163-Disney Concept Art: Beauty and the Beast
164- Robin Hood (numbered to 5,000)
165-Vintage Movie Posters: The Great Mouse Detective
166-Mickey Mouse in "Mickey and the Seal"

171-Disney Concept Art: The Lion King
172- Beauty and the Beast (numbered to 5,000)

174-Mickey Mouse in "Clock Cleaners"

Not sure if anyone really noticed this, but Pack #19 didn't contain a Disney Villain, it instead had:

152-Disney Concept Development: Winnie the Pooh

The line called "Disney Concept Development" is new to this line of cards... there has never been a card with that heading before.

Interesting.

An FYI update...

Just got Pack #8 and #9 of the second printing. The lithographs now match the first printing.

So only packs #1-7 have different lithos in the second printing.

Thank you.

I KNOW THE STARTER PACKS WERE NOT PRICED TOO BAD BUT THE SHIPPING ON GETTING THESE PACK IS JUST TOO HIGH.

Yeah $4 is just stupid.

These cards end up costing $21.44 for every 16, so that's $1.34 or card, or basically $4 for a 3 card pack were they sold that way, and worth it, I think, given the quality of the cards.
Besides that, it's better this way than in regular packs, since once you started getting doubles, the cost would be astronomical. I'm up to pack 9 now, and while I hate seeing that $21.44 charge each month, I just can't quit 'em.

I hear you. I have every pack, all the D23 extras, and all of the second printing lithographs. It's cost me a ton but I love Disney and I love baseball card collecting and this marries the two.

I will have a subscription to this until the day they end the program.

The next set of cards have shipped... I got a charge on my card. Someone post when they get them... thanks!

Has anyone received packs 22 and 23? My credit card hasn't been charged yet like ethanwa.

I called them and packs 22 & 23 have been back ordered. I don't have mine either.

Did you happen to get 10 and 11? Just want to make sure they're still the same.

I have the first printing in my wife's name and the second in my name. We have two packages that we still haven't opened. We'll probably do that tonight when she gets home to see where we're at on these.

All the packs after 7 are the same. Its the lithos in the first 7 packs that have variants.
I asked about the binder again (16 months and counting) and no one has a clue if they are doing one or not.

Sorry, on my earlier post I got charged for pack #10 and #11 (second printing), not the packs in the 20's. And yes, the new lithos are only up to pack #7 (second printing). Everything after pack #7 is the same in both printings.
