[QUOTE="Jeff Wilder, post: 1634002, member: 5122"] Distribution within cases was [i]extremely[/i] good. Good enough that I question its randomness. (E.g., I got exactly three of each Common) in my first case. I got either 1 or 2 of each Uncommon. And I got only one duplicate non-Huge Rare.) If you're buying [i]more[/i] than one case, however, beware. The Huge distribution in my second case was [i]exactly the same[/i] as that in my first case: Warforged Titan, Behir, Storm Giant, Nightwalker, Formorian, Fiendish Tyrannosaur, two Treants, two Cloud Giants, two Bulettes. [Edit: I just noticed. Check Creamsteak's listing of his case above. Note that it is exactly complementary to what I got. He got lucky and pulled a "Case A." I pulled two "Case B"s. Sigh.] This wasn't coincidence ... check the various message-boards, and you'll find hundreds of instances of it. So basically I paid over $300 for two cases, and instead of getting something close to one of each Rare Huge, I got duplicates of the three least-valued Rare Huges. And it doesn't stop there: I'd made arrangements on maxminis for a trading partner, who was also buying two cases, to help even out the distribution. His two cases were [i]exactly the same[/i] as mine, in terme of the Huge models. Four cases, and not a single Huge Red, Huge Gold, or Glabrezu in the lot. Like I said ... beware. [/QUOTE]
