WB has total control over the images in the sets. There are cards, base and insert, that have left me scratching my head over why a particular (unflattering) picture was used. Look at the Aunt Petunia costume in this set. It makes no sense that WB would only allow the image of Aunt Marge floating away and a tiny Aunt Petunia in the background. But, Artbox was stuck with it. On the other hand, I don't care much for colors (or lack thereof) in this set. Yes, it's nice that Artbox is trying something different, but to me, the cards look very bland.  I still have only one, a proclamations double prop, because I picked it up for a cheap BIN. I just haven't felt like splurging on any of the other cards. |

Maybe that's my problem too. I usually want to buy at least all the new costume card for each set. I really fell in love with the cards Tom emailed me. Unfortunately, I waited too long to decide to buy some of them. So far I've been able to find a Ginny bathrobe card to match the one he had. I have yet to find another Zonker's bag double card like Tom's and Tower's. Of course I don't think I would have gone $200.00 dollars for the card. My desposable income is rather limited right now, so I think I'm just wanting to wait until the Half-blood Prince sets come out. I do agree with you. The prices seem to be much lower than they are for the movie sets, and I'm not wild about the cards either. I really am not that fond of the original Memorable Moments sets either. I like the color cards better.

I tend to agree. With my income being rather limited too (as i'm sure it is for a lot of people at the moment) i am passing this set and waiting for HBP so i can treat myself to a case. I'm not the greatest fan of both Memorable Moments sets. That being said, i prefer the cream and gold of the first set to the black, white and greys of this one. With the auto cards following suit and a lot of the swatches being duller colours too, it was a bit too much for me. I much prefer the normal colour cards. I must admit though that seeing everyones scans and box/case breakdowns has been making me incredibly jealous and giving me itchy opening fingers..LOL!..so i've just bought a 3d 2nd series sealed box just to calm myself down  |

I got mine there for $45.60, so that should be close to the bottom end of the range.

There has been a couple sold on ebay in the last 30 days. One went for £18.19 (around $29) and the other went for £24.99 (around $40).

Prices for many of the cards have been pretty inconsistent. If you're patient, you can usually get some of the decent cards for a song. I just picked up a variant dual P8 Yule Ball prop for $15.50. I've seen low prices on other cards, too.

Great looking swatch kbmum!. Seeing your card has inspired me to take pics of the couple of MM2 cards that i got from my second box over a month ago and post them at long last! As soon as i get my Harry/Sirius Dual Auto i will post that too. C3 Ron (CoS) 378/500  P9 Defence Against The Dark Arts Books--Covers And Pages (OOTP) 181/190  |

That's a great card!  I do have to say, though, that Gary Oldman's signature gets worse with each card set.  This is how he used to sign: POA  Batman Begins  GOF  |

Thanks kbmum I can see what you mean about Gary Oldman's signature. It did make me laugh looking at those cards in order as you can really see that it seems to get worse on each one..LOL!. I really like his signature on this one though as i think it looks like the sorting hat!  |

I got a box of memorable moments and I pulled this card.  Does anyone know which part of the costume this came from? His sweater doesn't seem to have any white patches. Thanks. |

Maybe it's part of an inside seam?

Yeah, we knew about the problem with the image when the set came out. Kay gave me the same answer then as she gave you now. Did you notify the seller?
I'm going to be opening a box on Saturday for NSU's Open That Box Day. I'm a bit nervous that I'll get only one insert in the box (and it'll be a high-numbered one, too), but I bought it for a good price and thought I'd take a chance. I'll post the break this weekend.

Could it be an incorrect swatch? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?VISuperSize&item=390148624619MM2 C6 has lots of variants. is the material on your card all the same thickness? |
