If Artbox could give birth, it would be a redemption with the real one arriving 9 months later
The Artbox website is so old, Indiana Jones has started looking for it
Tutankhamun went on the Artbox website and saw it was out of date

It's isn't an anniversary or Talk Like a Pirate Day.  A smattering of info, you say? Okay... October 16-18 and it's about cards. |

Usually schools get progress reports/report cards during oct 16-18. I doubt thats it, but I think its funny.  |

My best guess is a special autograph card for Dumbledore's old chum Gellert Grindewald, aka Jamie Campbell Bower, observed hanging out at Pier 94.
Or maybe quad cards signed by William Shatner, Nichelle Nichols, Yogi Berra, and Pete Rose?
(P.S.: I know October 16 isn't Talk Like a Pirate Day, that was yesterday. Nobody had done so yet on September 19 and it was already the 20th in the U.K., so I figured we didn't want to leave the Shack unrepresented by the "Captain" icon.)

Harry Potter and the Halfblood Prince Update set will be shipped on October 16 and be officially released on October 18. Just a wild guess. The DVD isn't going to be released until December 8. Isn't the update set usually released close to the DVD release. The Nonsport Update Magizine still list the HBPU set as to be announced.  |

HBPU won't be released until after Thanksgiving (which is November 26 ,for non-US folks). But, that's a good guess!

No date in Nov. specified. |

Indeed, the marketing timing of releasing the set so that it hits stores when the DVD is released is much too powerful to overlook. That's been the rule since the very first movie-update set for FOTR.
So, if the DVD release date remains December 8, I predict an HBPU street date of December 3 or 4. I doubt the DVD date will slip because you have to give the Amazon.com supersaver-shipping patrons in USA 2 weeks to have it received, wrapped, and under the tree (or received in time for them to travel with it if they have time off Christmas week).

Now that is some serious customer dissatisfaction! I don't know what's going to happen with the Gleeson autos, but I do know that the info about October 16 will be revealed this weekend! Of course, you're expecting a giveaway or something like, which this isn't. But still, it's going to be fun.  |

I was thinking something along the lines of a Gleason announcement, but apparently this will be fun for everyone.
A Secret Santa sign up?

Of course, you're expecting a giveaway or something like, which this isn't. But still, it's going to be fun. I've just come across a listing on  for the Gleeson Auto Redemption Card, the ad read as follows: Artbox 2007 Harry Potter and the ORDER of the PHOENIX Authentic Redemption card MINT condition Redemption card that CANNOT be redeemed for the autograph of Brendan Gleeson He played the role of Alastor "MADEYE" Moody and I have not seen any that he actually autographed, and only a few redemption cards alone. NOT VALID for redemption now anyway, but without him signing, this example is going to be EXTREMELY RARE, especially if the majority were returned to Artbox and all you get back is a Mystery signer. That's all I know, so if you would like to bid, go and check it out for yourself. By placing a bid you will accept my contention and must follow through with the purchase. Has anyone heard anything about these Redemptions being returned with a mystery signer? |
