Are they all evenly distributed or is one variant rarer than the others?

There's no way that they were evenly distributed, otherwise Papastu or myself would have finally found the final 9th one, or at the very least the last three of the supposed 9 back inserts.
What Stu has bought and found so far can be seen here:

Of the inserts, the bottom middle one of Alundra in a pond area seemed to be the hardest to find so far. As for the discs, the most common are 1st, 2nd, and 3rd one in the top row, with the 1st and 2nd in the bottom row being the medium difficulty, and the last few unmentioned ones are the head scratchers. The hardest one is the one we haven't found yet.
Conversations with Stu lead us to belive that the 9th art disc is most lilkely a 4th variant in the "person standing in front of the end boss" artwork that is shared by the right side 3. Reasoning is because each of the other three characters have a rather important story arc in the game, and from my playing though, there could be between 2 and 4 other characters they could choose from.
What's really depressing is that Steve (Stu) has had an actual running email/chatroom discussion with Victor Ireland himself, and Vic refuses to give up the info on the last remaining variants.
This sucks double because Alundra is the last WD game we need to figure out.
