Hello There, I've lurked for a bit on this board, and I lurk on a board I know a lot of you are one (the NSU Card Talk Board) and I wonder if anyone can help as I'd like to know how you know you've got a box with all the inserts in it (you call it a Hot Box?)

I've saved enough for a case of Update and I'm hoping to pull one, can anyone help?

Well... we haven't had it confirmed that there will even be any hotboxes in the update set yet Wink

That's a VERY cool ID by the way! A trilogy in how many parts again ? Tongue

Do you think there wont be any hot boxes then?  Cry

I know I wont be able to affford a whole set of all the cards and I was hoping I might get lucky and get a box as it would mean i wouldn't have to open all the boxes and I could sell some  Tongue

btw I love this forum youre all very friendly!

There have been rumours that there will be hotboxes but we will have to see! I think we all have our fingers crossed for it!

But a master set might be much more affordable than you think. Based on the rumours on the print run (which is now thought to be 1800 cases which compares to just 500 cases last time) I think a lot of us are going to find this set more affordable than we thought. It's VERY bad news for case buyers, but pretty good news for individual card buyers...

Well I hope it's good news for someone or this set is going to flop!

Well... I was wondering about that. And I think the auto master set is going to be the hugest pain ever to complete - if it's approx one of the top 4 autos in every 4 cases....!!!! (I hope that is wrong... I really do)

Case openers are not going to want to sell off the autos for nothing when they have had to fork out the best part of £1600 to pull it (I know they'll get other cards along the way but STILL)

The only chance to get "close" to a auto master is trading our cards. So i REALY hope we do this. I do not think that i ever will have enough money to buy only 1 of the Top Cards.

I hope i find only 1 top autograph card in my 46 boxes. (And hopefully NOT the Hermione again  Grin )

If there will be hot boxes again ...... GREAT....

But i never will have such a luck. So i didn't care about those boxes
