Box Ratios changed?

I saw 5 boxes yesterday:

Box 1: 2 EX (nonFA), 1 Shiny
Box 2: 3 EX (1 FA)
Box 3: 3 EX (1 FA)
Box 4: 2 EX (nonFA), 1 Shiny
Box 5: 5 EX (2 FA)

Looks like some boxes will have a shiny instead of FA and some boxes are crazy (like box 5)
 
Ok, opened my 4 boxes.

Box 1- Ray EX, Shiny Ray, Registeel EX, and Mew FA
TSS- 3 WLFM, 1 GRPD, 3 Cape, 1 Devo, 3 Scarf, 5 Scrapper

Box 2- Registeel FA, Ho-oh FA
TSS- 3 WLFM, 2 GRPD, 4 Cape, 4 Scarf, 3 Spray, 4 Scrapper

Box 3- Terra FA, Mew EX
TSS- 3 WLFM, 1 GRPD, 3 Cape, 3 Scarf, 1 Spray, 4 Scrapper

Box 4- Ray EX, Ray Shiny(2 in 4 boxes 0_0), Terra EX, Ho-oh EX
TSS- 2 WLFM, 3 GRPD, 3 Cape, 3 Scarf, 2 Spray, 3 Scrapper

Totals:
Total
URs- 10 4 FA
SRs- 2 Both Ray
12- WLFM
9- GRPD
11- Cape
13- Scarf
16 Scrapper

Notables pulled Holo and otherwise between all 4 boxes:
3 Good Chomp
3 Good Dreigon
4 Altaria
2 Ninetails
3 Sigilyph
4 Milotic
2 Wailord
1 Garbodor
5 Golurk

11 D Call Gabite
11 Buffolant
11 Emolga

Id say that 12 UR/SR per my 4 boxes seems like the old rate, except its divided up a bit differently than it used to be as we have already seen. Overall Im pretty happy about my pulls- I pulled the 2 most expensive FAs and 2 Shiny Rays which was incredibly lucky on my part.

for my part: 3 boxes

box 1 - 3 EX'es and 1 FA (Giritina, Registeel, Ho-oh and Registeel FA)

box 2 - 1 EX, 1 FA and 1 shiny (Giritina, Mew FA and Reunculas)

box 3 - 2 EX, no FA and 1 Shiny (Giritina, Terrakion and Crookadile)

Out of the three boxes all together I only got 2 of ANY Holo rares except Slaking (6 of him)
 
6 Boxes

5x Rayquaza Ex FA
2x Rayquaza Ex
1x Giratina Ex FA
2x Giratina Ex
1x Terrakion Ex FA
3x Terrakion Ex
4x Registeel Ex
1x Ho-Oh Ex FA
3x Ho-Oh Ex
1x Mew Ex

1x Serperior SR
 
Just opened my box, and was pretty disappointed:

2 EX's, no FA, no Shiny
1 Hydreigon (Ability)
0 Garchomp (Mach Cut)
0 Garbodor
2 Blend P/D/R/G
2 Blend M/F/W/S
2 Emolga
2 Tool Scrapper
2 Giant Cape

Wow, I was really really really most in shock to only get 2 of the most of the uncommon's that are useful

And then only 2 EX's, I thought we where guaranteed at least 3 EX's and one to be FA or a Shiny (I felt like NDE and DEX where like this), and never thought it was possible to get 4 EX's, let only SIX!

I was going to buy another box tomorrow that I reserved, but I might end up just buying a few loose packs here and there
 
I got a lucky box.

2 FA - Rayquaza, Mew
2 EXs - Rayquaza, Registeel
1 Secret Runiculous
1 Altaria
1 Hydreigon
1 RF Garchomp
3 of each blend plus RFs of each
4 of every trainer except 2 Devo Sprays
 
Here is an interesting thing:

Normally, I would expect a box to break down as follows:
24 Rare boosters
12 Foil boosters
- 9 Reg Foil boosters
- 2 EX boosters
- 1 FA EX booster
(letting aside Shinies for a moment)

My two boxes were:
Box 1:
25 Rare boosters
11 Foil boosters
- 9 Reg Foil boosters
- 2 EX boosters
- 0 FA EX boosters

Box 2:
23 Rare boosters
13 Foil boosters
- 9 Reg foil boosters
- 2 EX boosters
- 2 FA EX boosters

Seems that the mechanism which distributes different "kinds" of packs to booster boxes is broken somehow. If you would exchange 1 FA EX booster of Box 2 with one Rare booster of Box 1, the ratio for both boxes would be "correct".
 
Guess I bought a great box then!

x2 Mew EX FA/REG
x2 Registeel FA/REG
x1 Terrakion EX

x3 Garchomp Mach Cut x1 RH
x1 Hydreigon Ability

x2 of each Blend Energy

Plenty of Gabites, Gibles, Deinos and Zweleious(sp?)

I'm not complaing...I can complete all the decks I wanted to build with one box!
 
1 EX, 0 FA, 1 Shiny. Tons of repeat holos and none of them were the good ones. Easily the most disappointing box I've ever opened, even if the EX was Rayquaza.
 
I feel bad for our local Pokemom who ended up buying in on a case. I never buy boxes, and feel quite good for not buying in on DRX.
 
A single Dragons Exalted booster box at my league got us these:

Terrakion EX
Giratina EX
Ho-Oh EX

Rayquaza EX FA
Ho-Oh EX FA

SR Reuniclus
 
I'll post what I get in my box tomorrow, not looking forward to this based on some of the results
 
My friend and I buy a case of each set recently.

1: 2 EX, 0 FA, 0 SR
2: 2 EX, 0 FA, 1 SR
3: 2 EX, 2 FA, 1 SR
4: 2 EX, 2 FA, 0 SR
5: 2 EX, 0 FA, 0 SR
6: 2 EX, 2 FA, 1 SR

Ended up with 3 Mew, 3 Registeel, 4 Terrakion, 3 Ho-oh, 3 Giratina, 2 Rayquaza (EX), 1 Serperior, 1 Krookodile, and 1 shiny Rayquaza.
