Prev Babylon 5 Collectible Card Game Masterpiece Collection Replaced By New Babylon 5 Collector's Set
13/05/99		 Next

Precedence Entertainment announced today that due to the continued unavailability of outsourced components scheduled for inclusion in the Masterpiece Collection, the product has been shelved to be replaced by a new product called the Babylon 5 Collector's Set.

To avoid any further delay, the new B5 Collector's Set will contain only items manufactured by Precedence, including the 12 gold-bordered and foil embossed cards originally scheduled for inclusion in the Masterpiece Collection. These ultra-premium cards include the long awaited "Valen", "Sheridan Starkiller", "G'Kar the Prophet", "Emperor Mollari", and "Babylon 4". The set will also contain an exclusive poster and a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity. The entire set will be shrink-wrapped in an attractive folder.

The Babylon 5 Collector's Set is scheduled for August release and will retail for $39.99. Customers who pre-paid part or all of retail orders for the Masterpiece Collection are encouraged to contact their retailers to transfer deposits to the Babylon 5 Collector's Set. Note that with the new set at half the price of Masterpiece, collectors can now own two sets for the same total cost.

Precedence is also honoring the prior announcement of 4/6/1999 to customers who prepaid for the Masterpiece Collection. Anyone who can show proof of having prepaid at least 25% for the Masterpiece Collection may write to Precedence customer service at PO Box 28397, Tempe, AZ 85285 with a copy of their receipt to receive an ultra-rare signed "Lyta Empowered" card.

Precedence Entertainment produces the Babylon 5 Collectible Card Game, Fortune Teller, and the IMMORTAL series. Forthcoming titles include the Tomb Raider Collectible Card Game (August) and Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time Collectible Card Game (October).
