They must not have liked the double and triple dip last week...
Used all 325k that I had built up on my old phone (started using it 2 weeks ago for just vintage. I got 2 bounties and on the last pack I finally got the vintage.
Phew, odds moved in the right direction for once.
Also card is labelled as "Vintage - Droids in the Control Room" on the checklist.
Love the look of this card!!!!!! Epic
At these newer odds, it seems the card will still be around to double dip with Connections but definitely won't be around for Widevision like it was last week.
Sweet! An odds turn down! I sure hope this happens with the other marathons as well. It would bring them back down to a more reasonable level, and maybe raise their popularity back up a bit.
what odds were vintage before? 1:80?
1:90. At 5000 credits a pack!
Could be a typo, but the odds might have changed because it took so long for the last vintage (Lando) to sell out. Even the Fan's Choice cards seem to be easier to get; their availability really messes with the odds each week.
The best part of this card is how the droids are so clearly in Luke's house and not the control room (at least not what is generally called the "control room").
That's not Topps' fault, though. That's what the original 1977 set titled this card, and the vintages always use the original title.
40k and got a bounty and Vintage. First vintage I've ever pulled!
And dang, already 1000 sold in the first hour. I like these new odds ;)
I burned through about 60K today and got zero inserts. But I did get 11 credits for watching a video so I have that going for me...
Full card title in their database is "Droids in the Control Room".
You beat me.
1:60? That's awesome if it's not a misprint on Topps' part or something.
First thing that crossed my mind.
I'm assuming they're trying to ensure it sells out before the WV drop without lowering the count.
So if the odds aren't adjusted, what would they be to get either Zam or this new card?
1:30 and 1:60 would be 2:60 and 1:60 which would be 3:60 which would be 1:20 odds?
That sounds exactly right. 1:20 odds of pulling either one, but you will be more likely to pull the Zam.
Also, they won't be adjusted for these. That appears to only happen on time-limited releases such as Blue Posters and Orange Paintings.
no such luck for me, but i did get 2 wesell bounties if anyone is looking for it.
I sent you a trade for a Bounty that you are missing, if you are interested.
225k and only one bounty to show for it. FT if anyone needs, I'm not collecting the set.
EDIT 230k and two bounties, found some videos worth watching.

Vintage 0...Bounty 10! I'm going to go cry in the corner now. I spent twice as much credits as the last four weeks and the one with better odds evades me. 10 Bounties! While that's swell I would have rather gotten a Vintage and stopped early.

Even though redditors didn't seem to have much luck, the card seems to be flying off the shelf so to speak. Anyone feel it might not make it to Connections Friday? Wondering if I should just go in now without waiting for the (hopeful) double dip?

I actually panicked! After 3 hours I saw that 1,200 had been sold and it was pretty late for me and I just figured at that rate - by the time I wake up in the morning, I wouldn't be surprised to find that they have sold out - so my urge to wait till Connections had to be resisted. I'm actually glad I did, because I jumped in and 85k later walked away with 2 vintage! In theory I should have taken my own advice because even though 1,200 went in the first 3 hours, it really slowed down after. I guess I could have tried with Connections today for sure.
1:60??? Christmas in ~~July?~~June!
Or a typo? Typo, definitely a typo.Considering after the AMA yesterday we still don't know exactly how odds even work, I guess it doesn't really matter.Not a typo. Moreso that I didn't vote for 1:90, was bummed out when they were still available Friday morning and decided to lower this week's back to earth.
And I've asked tech to write up a "help us understand odds" doc to share with you guys.
Ah, right on. Thanks Steve!
Is that this?
