What The?! - MLP CCG Rarity Collector's Tin

[Casbyness 48]

I'll probably regret posting this

 

News to MLP CCG players/collectors - there is something very odd going on with the contents of the Rarity tin. 

 

I have opened three so far, and have had the same results each time. I'm interested to know whether others have had the same experience.

 

The tin comes with three MLP CCG booster packs (premiere series). Inside two of the three packs, there is no rare card. Instead, there's just four uncommons. Boo! The packs have been sorted weirdly, since the uncommons are all upside-down in the booster packs. It's not an accident that the rare is missing.

 

In the third pack, however, there is a UR!

 

All three times I've opened up a Rarity tin, this has happened. I now have three new URs

 

I have no idea if this is just freak wweirdness in the case my local shop received, or a deliberate way for Enterplay to get rid of excess UR cards.

It could just be weirdness that your local shop received. As so far you are the only one to post about this occurring in the rarity tin. Have you asked around and seen if this is either the new way they are packaging the cards in the tin? Or is this relative to your shop only? As it could be they simply changed how they put cards into the tin, and that is why you have a a different stack than normal.

I picked this up on Tuesday,  and I'd be inclined to agree about it being the same cards every time - I knew the cards I picked up were all way too geared towards a Rarity deck to be a coincidence

Not all the packs have rares, the CCG card packs only have a 1:4(25%) chance of containing a foil. 

 

However, I think there a higher chance of getting URs in the boxes because I got one in the Rarity tin as well as the Nightmare Moon/Luna tin. I haven't opened in the packs that came in Discord box to verify yet.
