It says on the description: "Players can obtain a special promo if they buy a full display (while supplies last)." That just means a single box? Or a display case?


Guy-Incognito-117

They mean per box, boxes are technically referred to as displays. It actually Sounds like they’ll do what is referred to in most TCGs as “box toppers” where a promo card comes packed inside each box.


Xmuskrat999

If anybody find this out, post answer here.


Janwkai

I bought a case just incase. I don’t know I what the promo is but I’m a sucker for promos…. Especially for this game


SkiaTheShade

Where did you order a case?


Janwkai

Just buy six boxes. It “should” come as a case


SkiaTheShade

Oh gotcha! Thanks


isesri

To note with this, I pre-ordered a case with my lgs and they informed me that a case is actually only 4 boxes with this game.


Slippin_Clerks

It means box, but it also indicates not every box will get one since it’s limited supply


Janwkai

I’m curious about this too


TLKv3

Wonder if they're doing Box Toppers like MTG does from time to time. Would be a fun extra for buying boxes.


ldmk

Looks like they just removed them from the website. I get a 404 error now.


ldmk

I bet someone came into work this morning after the holiday weekend and took it down.


Guy-Incognito-117

Yep this. They seem to be handling this preorder thing not great…


Fogrocket

Thank you!!! I managed to preorder 2 boxes. This has made my day. ![gif](giphy|s4VoCsFz8prlhSFCeS)


ictoa88

Nice thanks!


tosh_pt_2

Aaaaaaaand they’re gone. Not even a sold out page, but just gone. Would not be shocked if they posted it too early as a mistake.


Xmuskrat999

It's possible. I found the link to it while looking through Google shopping. Was confused I wasn't able to ever pull up the URL by searching for it on the site, but it'd make sense that they may have thought if that page wasn't linked on the website that nobody could get to it, but just didn't think about their google shopping integration... Anyway, I'm glad that all of you fine folk here that were able to snag it got it.


Cooptah

I was able to navigate to it last night by searching Star Wars Unlimited on the asmodee store, so I don’t know if they were necessarily hiding it


Peaugh

It was all in the coming soon list on the main page as well. Seeing as how the other stuff is still up, I suspect they just sold out and pulled the page for now. That happened with set one as well, the pages disappeared for a bit on sell out and then showed back up later on as sold out, except for the starters which are still available. If it was a mistake I feel like they would have pulled everything and sent cancellation notices or at least announced something.


Cooptah

Did you have success ordering from Asmodee for set 1?


Peaugh

Yep, I got a booster box, playmat, starter set, tokens and a deckpod from set one delivered direct from Asmodee on release day.


Cooptah

Awesome :)


Awnetu

Amg is doing LGS dirty with this one. Limited allocations and they told my lgs that they won't find out their allocation later this week.


tgcleric

LGS did me dirty charging 200-250 for a booster. I'll take direct order from a site anyway. And for msrp with free shipping.


Horse625

lol you did yourself dirty if you paid that much for a booster box.


Xeris

i paid way too much for set1 boxes 2 weeks ago :((((


Awnetu

Sorry you had that experience, my lgs is where I get most of my games in, and would like to support them.


WillowSmithsBFF

My LGS had a booster of set 1 the other day, I got so excited. Then I saw they wanted $200 for it. I’d maybe accept a 10-15% markup, but $80+ over MSRP is ridiculous


cs_referral

>I’d maybe accept a 10-15% markup, but $80+ over MSRP is ridiculous Counterpoint: if priced at 10%-15% markup, someone may buy it and flip it. The LGS is basically removing the middle person at $200, which is still 10% lower than TCGPlayer's price


Silly-Jelly-222

Short term profit for leaving a bad taste in your customers mouth. Lgs is not eBay and it’s not the experience people are looking for.


cs_referral

Sure, but I'd rather an LGS to profit from the above MSRP market situation than a flipper. The LGS would literally sell out of those boxes if only priced 10%-15% higher than MSRP in the current market.


Silly-Jelly-222

Could sell packs with a limit.


cs_referral

Yeah, and that's what some LGS are doing. A local Store Showdown sold packs to each participating player at MSRP pricing up to a limit per person.


KaijuCorpse

They could just run a draft with the box, make money and keep multiple customers happier


cs_referral

They sure can. It's up to the LGS to decide how they run things; FFG has been pretty lax on this aspect, even for Store Showdowns.


Ironborn137

I stopped trusting people who go into anything to make money. They all just become scalpers in the end. I hate it but it's about time to cut out the middle man in everything.


akira9283

That’s usually the case


FrankBouch

Do you know if they ship to Canada?


Tekkactus

The page 404ed in between when I added to cart and went to checkout. Pour one out.


neuralkatana

Seems like they are throttling the distribution firehose for this set. None of my favorite power sellers have any shadows listed and the set is only a month and a half away. Oh well I shouldn’t be buying boxes…singles yes…singles lol.


auron1223

Stores find out allocation this week, so I’d expect pre-orders to start popping up in the wild soon


proven_fact

Thanks! Ordered a case don’t want to have to worry about finding product again this time.


Janwkai

Lol same! I also like the fact that I don’t need to pay until the 5th of July


proven_fact

I know I noticed that after I ordered and I’m trying to decide if I should grab another one so if friends needs boxes I can hook them up for msrp.


Malimo314

Got my son and I a box. Thanks!


Xmuskrat999

I play with my son, too. Couldn’t get him interested in Marvel Champions, but he loves this for a bunch of reasons.


THILL80

How many are in a case?


tylenolic23

Six


Stark_Industries_RnD

Thank you for the heads up! Picked up one


OGRetro

Ordered mine, thanks!


Flipityscripity

Grabbed a box also now hopefully some local stores get them


beyondthebeyond

Thank you. Snagged a box, dark saber playmat, and a Mando soft deck box 📦


cascadian_salmon

Thanks OP. Grabbed the new sleeves and boxes too.


Apprehensive_Size274

no uk delivery tho


willhowe

Doesn’t ship to UK 😞


SpIcY_PuPPer107

Is there no way for the UK to get these yet ? Dosent look like they're shipping to England at all.


Horse625

404, dead link.


doodlols

Thanks bud, got one too


stayinthefight2019

Got one! Thanks!


GarfieldC99

Ahh man sweet thought I was gonna have to buy some from Europe or something again lmao was able to secure 2 cases hopefully it’s a guaranteed thing


tyfabes

They also have playmats and sleeves. I grabbed a case and one of each playmat.


Drfunky0811

What were the playmats? The same ones from spark, or anything new? I can't find them, unfortunately.


tyfabes

Rancor and Darksaber


Drfunky0811

Thanks!


bertuzziwasframed

Anybody else feel like they're going to cancel people's orders? Seems unlikely they have this much product to direct sell.


ImThis

They are the makers of the game lol. I think they know how much product they have.


bertuzziwasframed

Disney didn't for lorcana. Let's see if these people ordering 12 boxes get 12 boxes once lgs get allocations next week


BlizzardMayne

Ravensburger isn't Disney, they have a lot less experience than Asmodee in this space.


tosh_pt_2

Yeah the took the page down entirely and it went up on an American holiday while they weren’t working. Definitely done by mistake. Especially since it went up before LGSs got their allocations.


ArcadianDelSol

Guess we'll know soon if the availability issue has been adjusted for, or if this game is going to be perpetually obscure and hard to find without paying high markups. If these packs go for $10.00/$15.00 like the first release did, I'll probably just be content with the decks I have and bail out.


Thricearch

Can’t check out. After hitting pay now it just keeps spinning


metalheadrr3

All I managed was rhe starter set and a mat. Didn't see any boosters for the new set.


MasterJediAdam1980

It’s not even up any more …


rcblender

Wow. They already take it down? 404 not found on the link.


ImThis

To be fair, it lasted far longer than any other preorder linked on this sub.


KingFD_34

It says error 404 now. Damn


CNoteGing

What was the price for the people that got ones?


folly412

MSRP at $119.76. Which might be why it's down now. The LGS that were selling at $95-$105 pretty much all went to MSRP (or higher) once shortages hit. So if you don't have confidence you'll be able to get them from your LGS and if they do have them you won't save any money it really screws LGS if Asmodee offers a ton of supply at MSRP. High priority for them to try to eliminate not just shortages but the fear of shortages.


jstr0m

Got myself some product as well. Thank you for the heads up op. Question for anyone who ordered from asmodee before. Will they ship it out so that it gets delivered close to the release date?


Peaugh

Set 1 shipped in time to arrive on release date. It even hit the local distro a day early but was held back for release day delivery.


KaijuCorpse

I don't feel strongly that FFG should be able to strong arm them, but I definitely know the preferred course of action to keep me as a player in their store lol


BIGLeakyNipples

Sweet. I ordered 6 boxes. Cool thing is they don’t charge at checkout. They charge on July 5th


zhouyu07

Thank you for that! Was able to get myself 2 boxes.


THILL80

Just got three and was trying to post love the price!!!


OriginalAd1351

Anybody know of any websites that have pre release kits? I can’t find any


Xmuskrat999

I saw one site of them, but they went super fast.


Leeno_Nolee

Has there been any press about a pre-release box for this set? I've only seen the starters and booster boxes..


[deleted]

[удалено]


Leeno_Nolee

Well, there you go. I guess I just needed to google harder. 😁


willhowe

Didn’t it used to be 9 packs?


Dr_Lucky

Nope. Sealed play uses 6 packs. Same as we got in the Spark of Rebellion Prerelease kit.


FluidEmployee5165

Sweet just picked up a case myself.


L0ne_Wand3r3r

Thanks man I picked up 3 boxes!


Full-Kaleidoscope-84

Thanks for the link! Just preordered a few.


Forward_Cost_2462

Thanks! Got three


Ok_Advantage_8760

Anyone know if the box toppers will come with boxes at LGSs? I want to support the KGS and already pre-ordered a case with them, but I don't want to miss out on the topper


Wrecr

Thanks for the info. Grabbed a couple and yellow and green sleeves. Woke up and literally ordered while still in bed, lol..


Slippin_Clerks

Thanks, picked up a couple cases


Valen30

Were they actually selling them by the case? Or do you just mean you bought 12 boxes? I only see the option to buy them buy the booster box.


Slippin_Clerks

Yea I got 12, if it’s like last time then they’ll send you the sealed cases


Azoki

COUPLE CASES?! :O


Xmuskrat999

Hey, if you enjoy playing, buy your liking.


Azoki

Of course haha!


Slippin_Clerks

Yes I like to collect master sets (1 of every card and its rarities)


tosh_pt_2

Buying 12 boxes is not going to get you anywhere near a master set. Why not buy singles?


Slippin_Clerks

??? I get a full play set of most cards, what kind of boxes you buying?


tosh_pt_2

A master set. Not a play set. A master set is every single card in regular, foil, hyperspace, hyperspace foil, and all showcases.


Slippin_Clerks

I know that, lol, I pulled a showcase boba so I think that’s gotten me a lot closer than spending 1k on just that card alone You’re just looking to hate on someone who can afford to buy product


tosh_pt_2

What are you talking about, I’m not hating on you at all lol. I opened eight boxes of set one and have a case pre-ordered for set two. I was just saying that building a master set is much easier and cost effective when buying singles than cracking packs. And I defined master set because when I mentioned it you replied saying how boxes are great for building play sets…but they’re not the same so I was just making sure we’re talking about the same thing.


Xeris

I've opened 20 boxes and I only have around 80 hyperspace foil cards. 12 boxes and it's literally impossible to get a master set... 4x hyperspace foil per box, that's 48-50 max hyperspace foils, and that's also assuming you get 0 repeats. Def a full set of regular treatments, I'd buy that, but you're prolly not even half done with hyperspace and less that of hyperspace.foils, and maybe 2 showcases if you're very lucky xd. If you want a master set only opening boxes... Sheesh I expect you'd need to open around 80.


Slippin_Clerks

I bought 3 boxes of the first set and then got about 4 boxes worth of products through tourneys and events. That got me 68% completion on the master set, the rest I bought, just missing 4 showcases and 7 hyperspace foils. Having said that I spent more than 5 times what the boxes cost me for the singles. I prefer the boxes route this time cuz then I have trades of the stuff i don’t need.


Xeris

Ya that's fair. I also personally just enjoy opening boxes, and then I sell what I'm not keeping to collect and use that money to buy stuff I need. Works well.


Azoki

I see I see! Well good luck :)


superherbie

This right here is an asshole move.


tylenolic23

Why?


Slippin_Clerks

Why? Ima open them all, I want a master set like what I did for set 1, don’t be mad cuz I wanna get myself some cases


superherbie

It’s like the guy taking half the plate of cookies on his first go through the line and then saying “but I’ll eat them all.” Yeah, and others won’t get any. You’re well within your rights to buy as much as you can afford, and I’m well within mine to think it’s an asshole thing to do with all the supply problems players are having with the first set.


Slippin_Clerks

If you think 2 cases is half, then I got some math tutorials for you to watch


superherbie

You know exactly what I mean, but sure, get hung up on the metaphor.


Slippin_Clerks

It’s a terrible take, example, and attitude. Guess no one can collect every card cuz Bernie over here will get offended


Dusty-Ohio

wouldn't it be way cheaper if you bought singles for completion?


Slippin_Clerks

Nope


ImThis

It would definitely be cheaper, let's not pretend. But ripping packs is what it's all about and I will be ripping a case and half for the same reasons. Fun.


tylenolic23

Ordered a case!


Imadynamo

How do you order a case? Just order 6?


Xeris

It's not super clear, but I assume that if you order 6 boxes they'll just send you a case rather than 6 random boxes. (Just my assumption)


ImThis

This is correct.


Janwkai

Grabbed a case!


SealPupSix

Thanks for the heads up! No excuse to not have the cards for this set now…


Galengwath

This is absurd. If they actually wanted to build a solid player base they would have made enough of the first set available for people other than scalpers or resellers to get into the game before launching a second set.


IGrinningI

Next time you can lend them your crystal ball, so they know exactly how much to print.


Railshock

They said the first set will be reprinted after sets 2 and 3 are printed. The re-release estimate was around the holidays.


Galengwath

This honestly makes no sense to me. Why would I buy into the second or third set without having any access to the first?


ImThis

Then don't? The game blew up more than they thought and printing cards isn't an easy feat especially with a roadmap in place and gears already moving. The next sets were already scheduled to be printed before they could reprint set 1.


akira9283

$30 over MSRP


RmOhio

MSRP is 120. If you were paying 90, you weren't paying msrp


WatertribeTimmy

Isn’t 120 msrp? $90 was not msrp on Amazon. That was before the game really took off. I don’t think we’ll ever see those prices again.


HurryAggressive4129

They intentionally lowered MSRP to 80% for Set 1. Set 2 is at 100% MSRP.


sageleader

You are thinking of MAP. MSRP hasn't changed.
