Revenue fell 15% this week.
Units fell another 15% as well.

TCG player did about $804,000 across 5,040 units.

Manipool came in at about 53,000 across 388 units, also down, and sitting right in the middle of all of that, the Hobbit collector booster display gained again.

The shelf turned over more than once during the week, even with 40 extra units of average depth.
