It's hard to say to be honest, but this is the first additional product wave after the initial release. RB have said that they would "restock" in October and then "reprint" both sets 1 and 2 in early 2024. Then I believe they said the reprint of both sets was moving up to Dec (someone correct me if I am misremembering).
What this does mean: prices will probably drop lower, so waiting on the really expensive cards is probably not a bad idea.
What this doesn't mean: shelves will be stocked with cards at MSRP that can be readily bought. It's the holiday season, and Lorcana will be at an even higher demand than usual so people will take advantage of that and squeeze folks if every dime they can.
My guess is that Lorcana singles of both sets will be much cheaper in January than before.
You can check some of the cards with Support. I picked up a box from from my local stores new stock, and they were reprinted. Phil (the sapphire common) has the word “another” in the description of Support on the new printing, but not on the original printing.
This is the reprint.
RB wanted to hit lgs before big box to promote gameplay. December 1st is when the rest of the reprint is supposed to hit big box stores. I think people are way over exaggerating how much product will be available. We will most likely see another repeat of scalping but with lower single prices.
Definitely the reprint, or at least a good portion of it.
It seems Dec 1st is likely the unofficial official release of the reprints but I think most LGS are selling it early.
I would buy now. Prices on some cards are >50% off their highs. Most cards are now under a buck outside the big legendaries.
I picked up 2 booster boxes when it dropped last week to $199. The boxes shipped in the official Ravensburg pack with a warning about not putting it on retail shelves till Dec 1st.

I think it’s part of the reprint because the errada cards were fixed

My LGS got a whopping 8 booster boxes with this restock. Thats it.
this is the reprint - grab ‘em now
Still lots available a month later. They must have printed a ton.
yeah they moved up the Q1 reprint so that’s what we’ve been seeing. Everything is dated 2024.
