In what may be one of the most puzzling decisions for one of the hottest trading card games on the market, it appears we're right back to The First Chapter release allocations.

Many game stores are once again being limited to around 36 booster boxes, with little to no opportunity for additional product on release. As a result, many stores simply won't have enough inventory to properly support their communities on release day.

Please note: We expect to have product limits at release, possibly limiting customers to only a handful of booster packs per person.

What is causing the product availability issue? We don't know.

Hopefully additional product becomes available shortly after release, but at this time we haven't been given any information explaining the limited allocations.
