The one I got on the top of my half case with Ben (which I think I'm keeping unless he does WORSE than me out of his 5 boxes) has a strange blue stripe 2/3 of the way along...

If it's a fault just in mine can I send it back to Artbox for a better one... I was going to content myself with just collecting the case toppers for the moment but now one is not in great condition  >:(

Chris/Gimli did you get a response about card number 83?

Cheers

Hello Roz

  I have 2 of these cards and looking at both I can't see anything strange (like a blue stripe on any one of them)

Hopefully you can exchange it for a good one!! :D

Thanks for the heads up Sonarghost... I'll scan it in so you guys can see what I mean... it's in all the aspects so whatever the photo/scan shows you will probably be able to see!

Boo Artbox... hope they are nice about exchanges...

 >:(

 ;)Or did I get a rare blue flash edition  :P

It's like a little row of dots (blue) that move position when you tilt the card. as Roz says, it's about 1/3 in from the right. Seems strange but too uniform to be a mistake. Bah. Actually looking at all the cards that came in our boxes we have decided that the printing (actually the cutting) quality isn't that great. A lot of cards are cut so they overlap the next card on the print run.... anyone else noticed that?

hey y'all,

  correction! I was looking horizontally on the card! YES Both of my cards have this on the right hand side Vertically, never noticed it before. The row of dots are on both cards...so I guess this is the norm. :)

Rubbish... we have the limited blue flash editions  ::)

 ;D

Yes yes, I'll post it here when I get back to Cambridge.

Do any of the other case toppers have faults like this  ??? I hope not, it's the only mini-set I am going to complete... along with the robe cards - Harry and Hermione are in the bag, and when the rest of the Ron cards are released I'll hopefully pick up a Ron one, or they might be one in a later set.

Is anyone else collecting mini sets within this set, eg. All autos or all clothings rather than the whole caboodle?

one of these fine days I'll dust Mark's scanner! It gets used so much for his toons (he draws them and then scans them in and then outlines them in flash) that it gets pretty dusty!

But I hope that you can see to the right hand side there is an intermittent blue line down the right hand side of the card - 4/5 of the way along from the left

I've looked at mine and cannot see that line on it. If this helps?

Hey Roz,

   Finally got my other 3 cases from MPC today. I unfortunately got 3 more dementor hand case cards (brings my total to 8 of them). ALL of the cards have this line on them! Is there a way you can circle the line of blue dots, using a photoshop tool, so others can see exactly where to look? I also didn't see them after you initially explained the flaw to me. I was looking for a horizontal line of dots instead of a vertical. :)

Or I hope, like we speculated earlier, we have the chase variant!! ;D
