Everyone who snagged a set knew who the artists were well ahead of time. Great "mystery" HCG.

It was strange that HCG leaked the names of two of the three artists only to a select few on their mailing list. I guess that's a good list to be on. That notification went out only a few hours before the blind buy-in dropped. An hour after that they were sold out. I was busy working and had to make a quick decision after being keyed in on what was going on as I'm not on the early bird list. I almost passed as the risk was pretty high and I'm not a fan of mystery buy-in's, but ultimately decided what the hell. It all happened rather fast.
