Pro Tour promos were different than GP participation promos: they were given in various ways to people who came to spectate during the course of the event. (initially, PT promos were given out 1-per-person, then they became side event participation promos)
Since Pro Tours have been moved to essentially be private events, the need for PT promos has been diminished almost entirely, and as a result, since 2012, there have been no Pro Tour promos.
How often does this get updated? Xihao Dun the One-Eyed and Fluster Storm are missing.
Or how about the comic book promo's?
Every couple weeks. I also didn't add the judge promos that quickly, as only one could be part of the 2011 promo series. (and I needed good-quality images on the internet to discern which promo was the first 2012 one)
Treasure Hunt has been known as a promo for a good while now, and the DKA card wasn't spoiled the last time I updated this. I also don't add quite all promos that come out to this section. (if I did, there'd be random cards like a Japanese foil Phantasmal Dragon manga promo I just learned existed today) In a way, there's too much breadth out there to catch absolutely everything.
I'm a TO, and I just got the WPN Gateway kit for ROE in the mail. As was mentioned above, it has the Curse of Wizardry and the Pathrazer of Ulamog (which looks even sweeter in person). No surprises there. However, I got 40 of each (like used to happen) and no planar cards.
The opening post might want to edit out the "rumored plane" unless others have gotten something I did not.
I also got mine today. The "rumored" was actually for the entire line; the only source before was two uncommons among a 5-card promo update on MTGO, which would make sense as the WPN set for RoE, but wasn't confirmation until the mailings came out.
Do the MPR mailings usually happen at about the same time? I'm curious when last summer's MPR mailing was to get an idea when this year's will be.
I tried googling, didn't find the answer.
In past years, actually, there's only been 3 mailings a year. However, the past few mailings have had timeframes attached to the seasons, so it isn't unthinkable that there'll be a summer release this year and they'll move to 4/year.
In the past few mailings, though, the mailing has been around the same time as the previews for a set.
It seems like in the last year or so there's been at least a couple Japanese promos without much explanation. Worldwake had Sparkmage as a Japanese promo as well as Loam Lion, iirc.
I have a DCI Dark Ritual right next to me (recieved for working MMS in Minneapolis Saturday) which says "1/10 G09". It was given out to all certified judges sometime last year as well as being one of the ones given out at events. (Demonic Tutor was "3/5 G08")
It looks like it's localized to Apita, Aeon-Kyushu Jusco and Itoyokado stores. I'm not familiar with any of them personally, so that's all the help I can be.
