Wow those look awful. Each one has maybe $1.50 worth of cards in it. Lame.

The boros one comes with  {Firemane Avenger} so that might be a popular buy. These could end up pretty good especially Simic and dimir if the rares in them turn out to be staples.

You're describing almost every intro deck without a cool foil rare.

Yeah I can't say I'm really excited about any of them, although I would usually only buy the intropacks for the cards in them, and even though they might be solid first decks, there isn't any money cards in any of them.

I think I will wait for the event decks
I use to buy them, but with the guild pacts being sold for gate crash, I'll just save my money for those.

I buy intro packs if they have a cool theme. Or it speaks to some part of the human experience like fiery dawn did.

These don't catch my eye. Though might pick one up just for the heck of it

Then again, event decks overall have better cards

I will pick one up at the prerelease, but that would be it.  It would be  just a few more cards to mess around with between rounds and 2 more packs to open.

Sorry buddy, they won't be selling those until the week after the prerelease.

They had them at the prereleases for Ravnica at my LGS.

I will probably get the Boros to play around with.
