I believed there is a problem with this census.

The "Mystery Box Edition" was a Gold Foil limited edition to 100, Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird cover signed by Kevin Eastman.

Then there was a virgin Chromium Edition limited to 150, Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird cover.

I think you have the two combined as a foil cover.

@WDBill I've sent this information for the data team to take a look at. What I can see is that there are multiple Mystery Box variants represented for this book within the system. I'm unsure if the census is parsing the data incorrectly or not, but I'll come back to you once the data team confirm.

There are 19 variants associated with this title and all are reflected in the census. These variants are recognized in our database the way that they've been entered. There is a Mystery Box Gold Foil Edition. As for a chromium edition, I'm not sure which book you're referring to and what name that's been given in the database.

I am referring to the Mystery Box Gold Foil Edition that is on the census but only shows 1 9.6 copy. There were 100 of these, Gold Foil Eastman signed with a sketch. Available only as a prize via 100 golden tickets inserted into random “Ultimate TMNT Box Sets” from Torpedo Comics – this variant was not available for direct purchase.  I just believe something is wrong with the numbers.

@WDBill Thanks for the clarification. Unfortunately I don't have any involvement with the census numbers but I will pass your query along. 

Thanks. I may be wrong but from what I have read and seen there were 100 signed and sketched by Eastman and all 100 were graded when they were to be given out as prizes, so I really expected to see 100 of different grades in the census, not one. I have a 9.8 and there is a 9.8 and a 9.6 on Ebay now. For some reason I missed your post back in February so sorry for the late reply.
