No big surprise here. UD is making a killing off Unbound, even if it doesn't sell out. And Fred.Ian's work is top notch.

I wonder what UD will do with any unsold cards from Unbound 2. How many weeks failed to sell out? Only a handful, right?

Based on pops even non sellout weeks were close so it shouldn’t move the needle to much. I would imagine we eventually get an ePack repack product featuring unclaimed cards (achievements and melds).

They *should* be destroyed if the concept of a limited time product carries any weight.

Do the weekly hockey Game Dated Moments ever not sell out? I assume Unbound would follow whatever happens with GDMs.

Looking ahead… one way UD could insure (or greatly increase odds of) a weekly sellout would be to foil stamp the last pack with a 1/1 “last of” foil card.

Year 3 info is up, starts next week.

If you're worried about being spoiled, don't click. They show off basically 25% of the characters (though three are plates).

EDIT: oops, with social media they've shown off closer to 20.

Wow I’m kinda surprised they are revealing so much of the set at once. Why not just make it an anticipation thing.

So this is going to be a repeat of Unbound 2, correct? Base #/999, Rainbow Foil unnumbered, Canvas #/299, Autograph #/50?

The cards pictured are beautiful as expected. fred.ian delivers every time.

To me nothing shown looks flippable/like a clear EV+ play. I'm expecting a bunch of these base and rainbows to be sitting below $1 on comc some time after the drop.

Iceman will be the first card tomorrow.

Unbound 1 packs cost $11.99
Unbound 2 packs cost $14.99

What do we think Unbound 3 packs will cost? I’m guessing $18.99.

I don’t think they go higher than $14.99.

I am pretty sure all 4 plates were showing earlier so someone must have locked or has you blocked.

Or it was transferred to COMC.

I’m surprise UD isn’t front loading Unbound 3 with bigger names to get collectors invested.

Marvel probably has some input in the character list, which might be why we have Ikaris. It would've been great if they switched it up this year and did iconic battles or duos. That way they could repeat characters and still bring something new.

Ikaris is still available as of 4pm Thursday. I don't think a card has been available this long since...what? Alex Wilder, maybe?
