I had kind of weird thing happen in my fat pack: I got two Chandras. And they were in packs right next to each other so that I literally opened one right after the other. (I also got two Wandering Fumarole in the box).
Maybe others have had similar experiences to this in the past, but I've never opened a fat pack with two of the same Mythics, especially in packs right next to one another.

How does one tell the difference between a sealed land pack with Wastes and one without? I assumed the Wastes packs would have the card in the front but that doesn't appear to be the case.
The Wastes appear to be added to the back of the pack. I was able to slide the back card of the pack up to see its name and confirm that it was a Wastes.

It happens, I got 2 of the Gideon's in an origins fat pack. Also about 75% of the Fat packs I open do not even have a mythic, which is likely just bad luck on my part. It is because unlike booster boxes which are just semi-random. Fat packs are completely random. And when things are completely random strange things are going to happen. I have seen a couple people at my LGS open fat packs from this and BFZ get 2 expeditions in the same fat pack as well, wish that could have been me!
So I went to target to grab some PlayStation Store gift cards* and decided to look to see if they were out of Oath fatpacks. They were out, but I found a single BFZ fatpack and purchased it. I guess this only goes to show that it's always worth looking when you're at a big box store no matter how many times you've been there before.
*(Sony has been hacked too many times and I got tired of resetting my password, so I now buy the gift cards if I want to download a game off of the PSN)
Was that the one off of Balboa? If so you're welcome. I returned a BFZ fat pack that I bought but hadn't opened so I could get an Oath. Funds are super tight right now, and I hated to return the BFZ one, but at least (a) I got an Oath, and (b) someone else got a BFZ.
If indeed that was the one I returned, I'm torn between demanding to know what you pull and wanting you to forever remain anonymous.
Is it common to get two of the same common right next to each other in a booster from a Fat Pack? That happened to my friend and I've never seen it before.

I lucked out and grabbed the last one at my Walmart. Got Chandra, her token and a foil of her oath in the same pack....I think I need to make a burn deck?

My LGS had 4 Fatpacks left tonight, and they never sell above MSRP. So I picked one up. No expedition or anything, but, I pulled a foil Island, a Thought Knot Seer, Linvala and a foil Oath of Gideon, and 7 of the 9 packs had a Wastes in them. Def worth the money for me.

Yep, the very same Target. I haven't opened it, I got it as a gift for a friend.

Haha! Well I'm glad it's going as a gift instead of to a hoarder/flipper.
In terms of availability, it's gotten much better here (Germany).
My LGS got all of two Fat Packs for BFZ, and sold them for 50 Euros each to a guy who was basically waiting at the door for them to open...
Last Saturday, at the release party, there were like six of them for 40 each.
I ordered mine online from MCM for just over 40, and I was sooooo happy with it!
I didn't get an expedition, but definitely my money's worth: Chandra; Kozilek, Kozilek's Return, a foil Mountain, a foil Munda's Vanguard (yeah, I know, that's worthless, but, hey, foil rare on top of three mythics from nine packs!)...
Only downside: None of the cool uncommons, and only a single Waste from the packs.
You got a foil BFZ Mountain from an OGW pack? It's good to have confirmation that that can happen. I think that we all want that to be possible.

Along with many mods, I've moved shop over to MTGNexus. Come check us out!
Foil full-art basics from BFZ can be found in OGW booster packs indeed. I did notice a high rate of them while opening packs. I assume WOTC knew they would be sought after so they decided to include them as well, which is fine by all means
Fat packs theoretically contain 14 of each basic, wastes included. I say theoretically because usually the balance is messed up and you end up with 1 or 2 extras of one type and 1 or 2 less of others.
(That totals to 84 lands, for those not counting.)

Check out the thread for my cube if you have the time, and tell me how terrible it is.
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)

Funny you mention that - I got two Chandras in my Magic Origins fat back, and two other mythics besides. Only fat pack I've ever had with more than one mythic that I can recall. I haven't opened my OGW pack yet.

I opened 1 yesterday and my pull is 4 x hissing quagmire, 3 needle spires, 1 corrupted crossroads, and 1 oath of chandra
The land always makes me think of the Quagmire character from Family Guy going #1.

7 out of 9 rares were eldrazi.
I know right. I was at a loss for words when I pulled it. The Kalitas is actually a really good pull in my opinion too.
