Anyone else see this as FALSE ADVERTISEMENT ?

This pic shows we will get 30-45 of Boss Nass BUT 40 of the others... then card 3 states "a BONUS 15 shards for Capt Tarpals, Gungan Boomadier and Phalanx!"
then they try to quantify it with "each character has an equal change to drop on this card"
So the picture and the initial description indicates we will get 40 for each then the last line changes that
Pretty slimy CG

CG should honor the 40 they advertised
** ANY COMMENT FROM MODERATORS OR CG ? **
No where does it say 25 of each of the other gungans on the entire ad... no where at all only a chance for 15 bonus... no where does it state 25-40 on the other gungans... seems pretty slimy to me and I feel it meets these standards personally
An act or practice is deceptive where
• A representation, omission, or practice misleads
or is likely to mislead the consumer;
• A consumer’s interpretation of the representation,
omission, or practice is considered reasonable
under the circumstances; and
• The misleading representation, omission, or practice is material.
They made a post about this last week clarifying the pack.
It actually does say that. Card 1 is 20 shards of Nass, and 25 of each of the others. Card 2 gets you 10-25 shards of Nass (accounting for the 30-45 on the left), and Card 3 gives you 15 each of the other 3, which is why you see 40 on the left.
And then Card 4 is a chance for some other stuff.
If they knew about it last week, why didn't they clarify it in the pack description when you're ready to buy it? lol
Because they knew the picture was misleading they left it to sell more packs
Ah, I see. They have the text wrong on the pack, but as mentioned clarified it on the forums. You found the forums, so presumably you could find that post. Not sure why they didn't update the text in game, but the clarification on their official forums negates any false advertisement claims.
you are being super dramatic
Nope. Card 3 is only 15 shards for one of the characters. Why would they have a separate card to give you 15 shards of each when they could have just gave you 40 shards other than Nass it in the first card. They ARE pretty misleading and will continue to do so. And they will also cover themselves with the wordings to make sure you cant sue or appeal against your purchase. They're pretty deliberate about it the way I see it
So you can see the full text.

I'm guilty of not reading all the print.. I did not see the Card 1 description in full... I admit it... at the same time I fully paid attention to the picture display 30-45 of boss nass and 40 for the others... on a small cell phone its by far easier to see the larger picture than the small print to the side
DBP guidelines apply to material pictorial items
Is the picture meant to entice? Absolutely. Is it a lie? Not with the word 'potentially' over it. It is certainly a lot less misleading than the words the food industry can get away with--"homemade ice cream," etc. This pack hardly qualifies a false advertising in any rational context.
