Hi Thanks everyone I was very nervous about this set after reading the reports from others but have been really pleased with it on the whole to be so few cards off a master set after 2 cases was a breath of fresh air.  Rich

wow! love that crackers prop. It's one of my favorite in this set; it's surprising how many variants there are of that card  Just for clarification, are the christmas cracker cards the wrappers for some sort of food, or something else? I just realized im not entirely sure!!

Another nice card Thomas, congrats!!  Commiserations Jackie - you'll know better next time!!  Eric - take a look on this website ... http://www.christmascracker-shop.com/ and you should get a better idea what Christmas crackers are. It appears they're very much part of traditional British Christmas festivities - much-loved for their often toe-curlingly-awful mottoes, as for their sometimes cheap-and nasty and sometimes for their far-superior gifts inside, not forgetting the obligatory paper hat that must be worn whilst gorging on your Christmas dinner!!

Thanks everybody, especially to Jackie for giving me the chance ...  It's easy to say afterwards it was wrong for Jackie not to BIN. It was the first card ever on ebay and nobody knew how all the other Crackers would look like. Maybe the same way and the price would have been much too high. Now it's easy, now we know better. But the BIN was a risk, you shouldn't forget that.

LOL, the aragog leg is creepy to me too. Nice pulls! I really like this set, although i'm just picking up some single props and costumes this time, instead of buying any boxes.

I wish we had a picture of the whole scarf. It would be nice to see what it looks like and how the varients fit together. Love the card.

It's not a scarf. It's the top part of her sweater. Here is a screenshot of it... It's not the best image, but at least we can get an idea!

Here's a pic that I took of the sweater at Comic Con:  I hope that's clear enough.
