Giant Sized Openings

Midnight may me called the witching hour, but last evening it was the Clixing hour!  At 12:01am local retailer venues BuyMeToys.com and Fantasy Games both had Giant Sized X-men for sale!  I was present at BuyMeToys.com.



Folks spent some time busting open their cases and Super Boosters.  As for most cases: 7 Super Rares, two of which are the double based duo figures that may have been re-purposed Chases, like what we saw in Web of Spider-man. Rares are no longer coming one guaranteed to a booster, thus increasing their rarity slightly.  Sixteen Boosters yielded eleven rares from my case (5 and 6 from each brick).  


Anecdotally, the frequency between Commons and Uncommons also looks to have gotten closer. 18:12 in one Brick 19:13 in the other, 37Commons to 25 Uncommons.  


Breakdown is:
Brick one:
Commons 18
Uncommons 12
rares 6
Super Rares 4
Apokolypse


Brick two
Commons 19
Uncommons 13
Rares 5
Super Rares 3
Frost Giant (the Onslaught pictured is actually from one of the additional Super Boosters I picked up)


Last sleepy highlight of the night, I found that Fin Fang Foom's finger (ripped off by the Captain) fit's my partially amputated left index finger quite well!I may have to move him around the map using only my gross finger-nub!


So summing up: GSX is out! Why are you still reading this? Go out and get some!
