Disney Lorcana fans arrived in droves at GenCon, but distribution remains worryingly low

Ravensburger and Disney are dropping Disney Lorcana: The First Chapter early through local game stores as a soft launch for the new TCG, but players and collectors are having a tough time finding stores that have enough product and prerelease events. 

Fans of the new Disney Lorcana: The First Chapter trading card game showed out at GenCon from Aug. 3 to 6, waiting for hours to purchase a limited number of products like starter decks and booster boxes. For players and collectors who couldn’t attend GenCon, a soft launch of The First Chapter on Aug. 18 through local game stores is the next best thing. But many local game stores, especially in the Orlando/Central Florida area where I live, aren’t running Disney Lorcana prerelease events and have limited products for sale.
