TOPIC: Re: 2008 NOW SOLD OUT!

Funny you should mention that...<br /><br />For the first time ever, the free 10-pack of tokens that all players receive at the start of their round will be a "reconstituted" 10-pack made up of turned in tokens.  We did this because I screwed up and did not order enough tokens this year!  So, basically, this allowed us to take "virgin" 10-packs that were going to be given away in the free players packs, and we save them to sell at Gen Con (and after).  The good news is that we were able to make sure that all almost all the free player packs had a good assortment of tokens...so everyone should get a weapon and armor token in their free 10-pack at the start of the game.<br /><br />NOTE:  All tokens sold this year where 100% "virgin" tokens.  We won't sell traded in tokens.<br /><br />

I assume 1 out of 100 "reconstituted" token packs will be still have a purp?<br />

<br /><br />Great Idea, Jeff!  Will the 10 tokens be from all years?  Specifically - will it include wooden tokens? 

I hope the 10 tokens are from every year. That would be a neat pack to get. Is there then a possibility of getting one of the old Special tokens?

They are all 2009 tokens and we used the same exact formulas, so yes...there is a UR in 1 out of 100 packs.<br />

Jeff,<br /><br />I'll bet if you made reconstituted packs out of all the previous years (probably not 2003, 2004, or 2005a since those are so rare) and offered them for sale with the PYP deal and and 00 PURP token possibilities out of all the previous PURPs, you could sell a lot of additional tokens between now and GENCON, at no additional cost to you since you already own all those tokens.  There are a lot of people I'll bet that would really like to get those packs, and wouldn't see them as second rate packs by any means.  <br /><br />Would anyone be interested in buying token packs made out of inventory tokens from 2005b, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009?  <br /><br />Mike

Meh.<br /><br />Thanx for the info, Jeff.<br />

Thanks for the suggestion Mike, but I have long had a plan for all those pre-2009 tokens.<br /><br />[...cue mysterious music...]

Get that bard a theremin!
