My understanding is the Mystery Boxes are planned for much further in advance. The December box's contents may have shipped across at the same time as the November one. Last year the December box released on the 26th but didn't ship till after New Years.
Prior years final December Black box:
'20 = Tilt
'19 = Razor Claw
'18 = Cloudbreaker

Awesome info as I am new to the ??Box. Thanks!

If we get to speculate about the next mystery box then I’m guessing FD.

If I’m wrong about the FD then I have a second guess that it will be the Sky God 4.

Total speculation on my part so I guess we’ll have to wait a few weeks to see how far off I was.

The fact that DM already has a jump start in FD production that they pushed back to early 2022, I think you’re spot on here. If you follow Simon’s Vlogmas, he threw a “mystery disc,” and it looked like and flew like a fairway driver imo. So I chalk this up to evidence to your theory.

I also think they will wait on Sky God 4 until Simon can have a better, and by better I mean complete and injury-free, season. I think that will be a Signature Series release toward the start of next season.

The Mystery Box in practice is the perfect way to try out something new. When it once began, it was a method of liquidating some slower moving inventory but now it has become so much more. And, stale inventory isn't really a thing anymore. These discs are produced specifically for Mystery Boxes and although there aren't piles of signature discs in them, are really quite special.

Agreed. A lot of reviews indicate how upset people were that there weren’t more “special” gems, but I don’t have a reference point to how common that actually is. Jussi said it was their best box ever, but that seems hard to believe. I totally get that they’re just starting off with their new in-house production, but I wonder why they didn’t save that kind of hype for when they had the firepower to back it up. But then again…it’s Discmania!

All feedback is welcomed. However, boxes in the past have traditionally contained only one special disc as the featured item and the rest can be specialty stamped but not often new blends of plastics before they are released publicly. This year brought a total of six never-before-seen variations including the Extra Soft Logic, Lux Vapor Method, new colors of Lux Instinct and Neo Enigma, Neo Tactic, and C-Line MD1. That's quite a lot.

Yeah based on previous years I'd say you can count on another MB drop. Right after Xmas likely.

I will disagree with your assessment. If he didn’t play a tournament all season his signature discs would still sell out. No reason to put off making money for everyone involved. Also, Eagle just had his signature disc released so it stands to reason the next signature disc will be Simon’s. They are already set up to mold the P2 so all they have to do is switch plastic and they’re off and running.

Q4 has been pretty hectic with all the DM releases, looking at DM store emails:
C-line MD3 - Oct 20
Artic Fang - Oct 27 (Evo line)
Razor Claw 2 - Nov 3 (Evo line)
Midnight Prowl - shipped mid/late Nov after Oct pre-orders (Evo line)
Zen - Nov 23 (Evo line)
Black Fri Mystery Box w/ C-line MD1 - Nov 26
Cloudbreaker 3 - Dec 15

December Mystery Box - ~Dec 25th?

In not to long we will have a "Mystery Box of the month or week" it´s a great way to get discs of the shelves.

They get $99 for one disc that people want, , same with all the Lat64 Royal boxes

Probably not, but it's ok if they do because you don't have to buy them.
