Has anybody else noticed cards where the gold foil hasnt been applied properly? I got a few in one of the boxes I opened...the foil is only around the outline of the writing:

I think its desirable because it might be something everyones looking for in the future you know what I mean...Mcg right. It would be nice to add something to a collection because it will incresa in value in the future and might be worth over 200 dollars one day.

A nice topic for posting what i detected. What do you think about the back of the chase cards (the puzzle cards R1-R9) ? Most of them are equal. But there are others, you must have seen them. The back is much darker. Let's say 10 % have a darker back. I'm sure it's by mistake and a misprint, but the result is, it doesn't fit perfect to the other puzzle cards, you should have a look at it when building the sets. Well, you can imagine what i did now. I was able to get 2 complete sets with a dark back and will keep one of them in addition to my normal chase set.  Grin 

Any offers for buying the second set? Wink

I had a quick look at my foils, the backs seem to be ok, its just some of my base cards that are a bit odd...

Well, they are "o.k.", only darker. But i guess you mean that all of yours are equal and none darker. Smiley
