It wasn't expensive, but I've been searching for one like this for years.  It's a Disney Treasures 1 Reel Piece of History card of Fantasia.  I'm very particular about my cells and these of Mickey as the Sorcerer's Apprentice were perfect!  They're a bit hard to see, but the cells show Mickey yawning as he settles into the Wizard's chair for a nap. Cheesy

Nice!

That's a real tough set to complete, especially with good film cells.

Now you have to choose another grail to search for, the job is never really done. ROFL!

I'm not trying to complete this set, just because it's so difficult to do.  I've been picking a few cards from each series and going after those.

Don't worry, Ed.  There are several cards in line for my next holy grail! Wink

Awesome new card Cindy! I love Fantasia - I played my Fantasia game (Sega Mega Drive - wow, was that a long time ago!) to death when I was younger. Loved the music! Grin

They do exist.  I have one and I've seen a few on eBay.  The problem is that any card with Hermione tends to be very expensive.  They've sold for upwards of $40.  Undecided

Thanks, everyone!  I think I'm happier about getting that card than any other from any set over the past year or so.  So far, I have Fantasia, Lion King, and The Jungle Book for DT1, and Lion King and The Little Mermaid for DT2.  The Little Mermaid card is really special -- it's a quad cell with two cells of Ariel on the left and two cells of Sebastian on the right, plus it was pack pulled.

I'm so happy -- I managed to upgrade my Disney Treasures holy grail card!  The auction didn't show a clear picture of the cells, but the description said they had Mickey Mouse.  I was shocked when the card arrived! Cheesy

I suppose if I had to name a card as my "Holy Grail" it would be the COS Tom Riddle C6 card with the green and grey stripe.

On second thought it would definately have to be terryweasleys Beaubatons costume card error with the Igor Costume material.

I have 4 i'd call them my holy grail cards, the Triple AUTO, Dan's POAU Auto, Harry's Quidditch Jumper 2-color variant and MM Draco/Buckbeak prop..it took me a year and a half to get the perfect POA Griffyndor tie, I can finally scratch that one off my list. I know it will take patience, time and lots of money (Lips Sealed) but i'm sure i'll get those 4 cards at some point Praying.

The beauty of a holy grail card is that it doesn't have to be expensive.  It just has to be something that you really want and may take some work to find.  My Reel Piece of History card cost less than $10 with the shipping, but I was just as happy to get it as I was when I pulled a POA Sirius auto.  Of course, that may not make sense to some, but I don't care.  I love that filmcard.

That is the perfect card Cindy  Kiss.  I know you put a lot of effort into finding cells to match the cards and it pays off, they are gorgeous  Grin

My Holy Grail card tends to change a lot.  At one point it was the Hermione trousers card (which I would like to get at a reasonable price - for such a common card it costs an awful lot).  At the moment it is my missing COS film cells.

The cards I tend to look hardest for are nearly always for Boggy  Grin.  I am on the trail of a couple at the moment but prying eyes might read this  Lips Sealed Wink
