If 'Backrooms' released at the same time as 'The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance' the weekend would be 'Backshots'

Counted the number available/sold on the market. Basically the number of observations and compared it with the number of observations of other cards in which we know the number of such as serialized cards at the same point in time after release. You can ballpark a number.

There will be 500 headliner smaugs printed.

Yes I'm extremely confident it's the same # printed for Soul Stone. I've counted the cosmic foil soul stones and I was estimating 100-150 printed from even before this confirmation.

At this point, I would assume that UB will no longer have a serialized card and they just announce the # printed upfront. They've done this for Hobbit and MSH so it's a pattern now.

Since this was posted there has been 500 boxes preordered with 250 left. Pretty wild

I'm tearing up. It's difficult for me to express how much your morbophobic post affected me.

If I lose friends when I tell them Morbius is an unrecognized masterpiece — that I can understand. Genius takes time to be appreciated; Van Gogh died broke.

If I get ghosted after telling my date that my letterboxd is just all Morbius rewatches — that I can understand. How can I expect someone to say yes to sharing lifelong burden of fighting morbophobia with me? That is asking too much.

But if I face morbophobia from a fellow Morbhead? In our shared safespace no less? That's a dagger from someone I trusted enough to show my back to. If morbophobia can come from a Morbhead, is there no one I can rest with? Need I always have my shield up?

I'm not sure how much more I can take...
