Just curious, but were you able to pull at least 1 full RH set out of your case?
 
Man I guess I was really unlucky with my boxes. Still need 2 or so Lugia EX; and would like a Cobalion EX; Scramble Switch, Shiny Charizard, or Shiny Blastoise. I have the money for another box; would it be worth it to try my luck at another? Also for those people pulling Shiny Charizards; did you guys buy the boxes online, or in store? If online where did you guys get them?
 
No i was not but when i get them sorted i will let you know how far off i am.
That would be some extremely helpful information and much appreciated! I have always tossed the idea of buying a case just to get a full RH set, but needed the data to see how well that worked.

I get mine from Pokemonforever.net. 87.50 pre order price per box. 519 a case i think. Once the set releases the boxes go up to 89 tho.

Well, after a lackluster last couple sets, Plasma Storm has reinvigorated my love of opening packs.

Pulled at least 1 RH of every expensive regular card in the set. And cleared all URs except Moltres, Colress, Victini Reg, and Blastoise. (Bought Charizard from TnT to make sure I got a misprint just in case)


Box 1-
Left side URs (pack number):FA Victini(3), FA Articuno(15)
Right side URs: Dowsing(1), Scramble(4), W. Kyurem(7), FA Cobalion(12)

Trainers Pulled: 4 Hypno, 3 Colress, 4 C. Machine, 3 P. Energy, 2 Rope, 3 Ether, 1 Bike, 2 Virbank, 3 Frigate.

Box 2-
Left side: B. Kyurem(5), W. Kyurem(9), FA Lugia(14)
Right side: Zapdos(13), Dowsing(14), Scramble(17)

Trainers: 4 Hypno, 3 Colress, 4 C. Machine, 2 Energy, 1 Rope, 3 Ether, 2 Bike, 3 Frigate, 0 Virbank o_0

Box 3-
Left side: Lugia (5), B. Kyurem(10)
Right side: V. Piece(10), Articuno (12), RR (18)

Trainers:3 Hypno, 3 Colress, 3 C. Machine, 4 Energy, 2 Rope, 2 Ether, 2 Bike, 3 Frigate, 2 Virbank

Not bad pulls from a collector stand point. I pulled a wide variety of EXs and the expensive ones at that. If I didnt know better Id say Rope, Virbank, and Bike kinda got short printed... but its only data from 3 boxes so meh.
 
Out of 2 boxes and 18 packs; I got all the Ultras except for Shiny Blastoise, Shiny Charizard, Cobalion EX, Lugia EX, and Scramble Switch. Got so many doubles in not even funny. 3 Victini EX 1 Full Art, 2 Zapdos, 1 Moltres, 1 Arcticuno Full Art, 1 Black Kyurem, 1 White Kyurem, 2 Dowsing Machine, 4 Crobat, 3 Weezing, 3 Klinklang, 3 Togekiss 1 RH, 3 Gallade, 3 Manaphy. I did buy 1 Full Art Lugia EX for $40, and a Secret Charizard for $67. I also traded bulk for another Lugia EX Full art, and just confirmed a trade for a bunch of my Plasma Strom stuff + $30 for another Charizard. Planning on selling the 2nd Charizard, and hopefully use that money plus some more to get another box.
 
In one box I pulled:
1 Ace Spec - Victory Piece
3 EXs - Articuno, Black Kyurem, Lugia
1 EX Fullart - Victini

I also got a full set of Colress, Plasma Energy, and Lasers.
 
My Pulls (from one box):

SR Blastoise
Black Kyurem EX
Lugia EX
Moltres EX
Cobalion EX
Dowsing Machine
Scramble Switch
x5 Lasers (one RH)
x3 Virbank Gym's (one RH)

Overall I was very pleased with the pulls, except that I did not get an FA. Will probably buy another box just to see if I can pull a Charizard.
 
Opened my box today, and I'll admit, I'm a little bit disappointed.

8 Holo Rares (several of which I already had from prerelease)
4 Regular EX's (and mostly ones that would have been really easy to buy/trade for; admittedly Lugia was my one exciting pull of the box)
1 Ace Spec
0 FA
0 Shiny

This kinda irks me given that I've seen videos of people pulling multiple FAs and Shinies and I didn't get a single one. I would have gladly sacrificed 2 of the EX's for one FA or Shiny Charizard/Blastoise. The commons and uncommons were very bizarrely dispersed as well. Some I seemed to be getting every other pack, and others were very scarce. I think I have enough Whismur cards to last me a lifetime, and yet I only got 2 Rufflets. Bah. Nintendo needs to fix these issues. You'd think that the reaction to Dragons, which was pretty damning, compared to the reaction to Boundaries, which was heavily favorable, would have told them something.
 
I feel you man. I did get a second Ace Spec, but otherwise I had the same pull quantities as you did.
 
I opened my box...

36 Codes
33 RHs
3 Ace Spec (Scramble Switch, Dowsing Machine and Victory Piece)
2 EX (Lugia and Black Kyurem)
1 FA (Colress)
1 Shiny (Charizard)

I pulled an Ace Spec and FA Colress in the same pack!

5 Hypno Lasers too.
