the analogy I had thought of as it currently stands,it's the opposite of a movie rental store. The new ones and most popular ones are cheaper(1 ticket) than the 'catalog' ones. (older/less popular 2 tix). It seems backward in our (customers) favor untill (like deputystar said) you end up with all the Ariel & Morgane's you'd want. I'd like to see a second pass at the newest releases at 1 ticket, and also a second grouping of 1 ticket opportunities for the older "not 9" ones.
Although I have to admit, I've been looking closer at the booster packs, and came up with a Big Boobs one where all 10 were ones I Had an interest in.
With my collection, I can be patient and enjoy the cards I have (can only go one at a time, anyway, right?) And If new ones come out that I miss the window for the special, I'll be disgruntled, but I'll survive.
