Will this have the same cover theme as the other Special Edition "Core" books? I guess I understand both ways (and know the current image could be a placeholder), but having just one book with the word "Core" in it that doesn't share the theme of the others just feels wrong.

Feels kind of bad to pay extra for the Special Editions for a consistent theme when the sketch covers seemed to be the way to go for consistency.

Will this and the existing token pack conflict or will it work to have both installed and enabled simultaneously?

The existing Pathfinder Tokens: Bestiaries pack will continue to work the same way it does now, which is to say: it will map tokens and portrait art to every creature in all three of the Bestiary compendiums that come standard with the Pathfinder 2e system for Foundry VTT, as well as to equivalent creatures in the Monster Core compendium that didn't get new art in Monster Core and/or remain more or less unchanged.

Likewise, the Monster Core pack will map tokens and portrait art to every creature in the Monster Core compendium, as well as to creatures in the three original Bestiary compendiums that have the same name and remain more or less the same creature. (This latter distinction is important because some creatures appearing in Monster Core, despite having the same name, have undergone substantial changes in the Remaster to distinguish them from their OGL origins.)

Right now, if you have the Bestiary pack but not the Monster Core pack (because it hasn't yet been released), you'll see the original Bestiary art for, say, the Harpy mapped onto both the Bestiary compendium entry and the Monster Core compendium entry, because the Harpy underwent some changes but is fundamentally the same monster. You'll see the Bestiary art for, say, the Sea Hag mapped onto the Bestiary compendium entry, but not the Monster Core entry, because the Remastered Sea Hag is a very different creature from the OGL version. If it was the future, and you had the Monster Core pack but not the Bestiary pack, you'd see the same cross-mappings, but in reverse.

For now, if you have both the Monster Core Pack and the original Bestiary pack installed, the Monster Core pack will always take precedence where applicable. However, both packs still contain all of the art for their respective books, so if you want everything in the Monster Core pack except the new Harpy, you can always manually...

A little bummed as someone who bought the original token pack after reading the comments about how the staff would "love to update" the original pack after the remaster release; strongly implying that it would be a free update/patch :(

Any update on the cover art for this?

Will the special edition match the theme of the Player Core and GM Core books? Dark green with embossed/indented dragons covers? I've been waiting for the picture to update to make sure it does follow the theme as I prefer it compared to the old Special Edition formats (the current picture with just the green and gold text), and I just received my order confirmation email today. I remember reading somewhere that it does but I can't recall exactly where.

Reached out to Customer Service by email to ask, and they confirmed the special edition cover matches the Player Core and GM Core (and updated the picture on this listing, too!)

Is the default Mail Innovations page I am being linked to after clicking "track this shipment" on my order page the right place to be looking for tracking information? Or is there a trick with tracking the Reference Number (solution I found on Reddit from ~2 years ago)?

As a new subscriber, the buyers remorse is starting to set in after now 15 business days of no tracking updates..

Was just about to buy this when you made this really good point. Could we get any word on this?

We don't yet know how broad the changes will be when Monster Core releases- we'll be evaluating when we get closer to that knowledge, but I'd personally feel pretty bad if we didn't find some way to update this for users who purchased it.

When we know more about how that's going to go we'll be sure to get the word out.

Purchased! Thank you! Fingers crossed for an NPC collection!

Was just about to buy this when you made this really good point. Could we get any word on this? Would totally buy it if I knew an update/discount would apply for when Monster Core releases. I know this is not made by Paizo so it could get murky; just don't want to essentially pay double if there will be a "remastered" token set.
