Well done! I never went in for the LOTR costume cards, but I do like that one...the only two I got were TTu Faramir and Sam, in the one box  |

So just the ones you really really want then...thats a good idea. I also have Trilogy Pippin, with gold thread through it. Ive never actually bought a costume card, got mine from boxes...

Same here, most through boxes (got two Eowyn's Edoras Stable Dress costume cards from the same box...that was a bit weird). Even though they are 'pieces used in the making of', I still think most of the LOTR costume cards, with one or two exceptions, are still lovely.

I pulled the Eowyn from a box and the Faramir from a guaranteed mem pack. Elrond I bought as I love Hugo Weaving and am never going to get his auto :'( I love your Galadriel... I have had two (one bought, the other pulled from a box) but ended up selling both in my auto cull  |

I'm not sure - they look like gold to me. I see the 2 near the bottom and what might be one at the top of the swatch. But for what I bought it for, I am not complaining regardless of the colour |

I love your Galadriel... I have had two (one bought, the other pulled from a box) but ended up selling both in my auto cull bummer ive wanted one for ages, but they have been harder and harder to get; this one was an aussie seller, and I had no competition for it I just noticed, the pic above from the auction is not the actual card that I got-the auto on mine is nicer, and within the signing space... |

This is what my actual Galadriel card looks like, as it is quite different from the scan in the auction (first post above)  |

Me too. The sig in nicer (neater), and within the ring. So for once is was better to not get the card shown in the auction. |

The ink looks black in the first one, or at least blue-black. Could be the scan, too.

Yeah that's a beauty! Well done you! It's rare to get a BETTER sig than you see in the scan  It's quite simply one of the nicest FOTR Galad's I've seen |

It IS the nicest I have seen - I love the way the 'C' curls at the top. Beautifully centred and very neat too... now if they showed the actual card on the auction, you may have had a bidding war on your hands  |
