High School Musical (Topps)

Has anyone heard anything about this set? It's supposed to be released in June but I can't find any info on it   

Also would anyone buy boxes/cases/cards?

Pre-Sales starting to hit eBay!

Opinions!?!?

I saw the movie on TV and thought it was good, but for a younger group than I'm in.    Who knows if the younger crowd will buy boxes?  They have hobby boxes of this set?  Seems more like a retail thing that kids could pick up by the pack at Target or something.  But of course I could be wrong about the whole thing.

There is both Hobby and Retail versions of this one.  But, there was absolutely no difference in the listing I was given for what was in them.

The Hobby version looks like this:

SRP-$1.99)
8 boxes per case/24 packs per box/4cards-3stickers per pack
$47.00 box
Release Date: 7-23-07

High School Musical is "Grease" for today's generation and a unique success story that crosses over multiple media outlets: tremendous ratings, record-breaking DVD sales, and a soundtrack album that topped the Billboard charts and just won't go away.
High School Musical Card & Sticker Fun Packs are designed for maximum appeal to the core audience - tween girls. Each pack is filled with great photos of their favorite stars (including heartthrob Zac Efron) from both High School Musical 1 & 2 and fun activities:
- Sticker cards with a flipbook animation of Troy reenacting the dance steps from the finale of the first film.
- Kiss-Cut sticker sheets with puzzles on the back that link to form a giant poster.
- Glitter foil inserts for decorating notebooks, folders, etc.
- Felt sticker inserts featuring Wildcats and East Side High pennants.
- Memorabilia Cards with swatches from costumes worn on the set!

My daughter (12) is really looking forward to this one.  She practically drooled on the sell sheet, especially the memorabila card shown.

But I think more of this will be sold at retail, it's a natural for retail sales.

Has the release date of this been pushed back? I was checking EBay for boxes but only found a pre-order

I've asked for a revised date when the 7-23 date came and went.

Have heard nothing firm, but there was no getting answers from Topps last week because everyone was in San Diego.

Odd thing though, it's no longer on my distributor's pre-order list.  I hope that's not a bad sign.

I'll try to post here when I hear what's happening.
