The Yak Shack Forum

Hey Guys
How many of You will opening boxes of Serenity? I heard everyone signed equally so I'm hoping that means a master set in a case. I am getting a case for My Wife for Our 10th Anniversary along with the binder and all the promos hopefully. Anyone in the UK have a spare promo? ;D
She met almost the entire cast in San Diego and they were all great and is pleased with Her signed picture (only 50 people got one )and is looking forward to the set. The show is great and from what I have seen the movie will be just as good or better.
I will be opening about 4 extra boxes also so I will have extras if anyone will be needing any.
Take Care Everyone

I've never seen Serenity.  What night is it on?

It's a film -

So far 3 Shackers have been treated to previews, Gimli, Almostmorning and Crystals

:)

I'm purchasing a case, and I hope the rumors are true about everyone signing equally.

So Firefly is a tv series and Serenity is based on it?  If so, is Firefly still on tv?  Can anyone in the US tell me what night?

Firefly was on Fox, and only lasted 13 episodes before they cancelled it mid-season.  Fox is not known for having much patience in letting a show find it's audience.

The Scifi Channel is currently re-running the series on Friday nights.  They are in the middle of it now, not sure if the plan is to start over at the beginning when the run is finished.

Kelly I can't recommend Firefly enough.  Rent, buy or beg the DVD's from someone.  I seem to remember reading somewhere that the DVD boxset was the fastest or biggest selling TV Scifi series.  I would love to recommend a particular episode but it is one of those series where every episode turned out to be your favourite (but a special mention to Jaynes Town  :rofl: )

Graham will be getting a case and I think he is hoping for a complete auto set  :o=

Wow, sounds like a big thumbs up!  I'll check my local video store for the set to rent.  If they don't have any I'll watch on Friday.  Thanks!  8)

Too true - remember Futurama... weird in places but really very good overall (IMHO)

Hi Kelly
If all else fails You can get it on Amazon for $29.99 shipping included.
It's worth it.

Thanks, Rich!  ;D

I just called the video store.  They have Firefly AND Lost.  Woo-hoo!  Since I never saw any of those episodes.  My TV is "stuck" on the Disney channel.

Oh dear. Guess who is going to take credit for every auto she pulls  ;D

So Who's looking forward to the 21st. :) :D ;D
I know I can't wait.

Graham won't be getting his case until Milton Keynes so a little longer to wait for us  :'(

But I can't wait to see all the lovely cards everyone else pulls.  I also saw a new trailer this week - that film is going to be so good  ;D

Gina Torres (Zoe)

So you're one auto short of a master set?  And from 1 case?  That's terrific!

Can we have some pictures please ;D I'd really like to see some 8)

I'll try Mike. I have to get to a friends house and use their scanner. My computer is wigging so I can't hopefully I'll have them up this weekend.

Thanks :)

They have samples of some of the costume cards on Inkworks website.  They look really nice.

Cool 8)

I saw these cards, and I must say that I agree so far that they are the best set of cards I saw so far this year. ;D

I am slowly working on getting a Master set of my own. This will be the first card set that I will be able to do this for and I am excited about it   :)

Step one for me is to get the rest of the Promo's I need and the Binder, then step two is to start getting the rest of the cards I need ;)

Hi Wendi
Let Me know what You need I have 3 Mini Masters:( 9 Card Renegades puzzle, 5 Card Women of Serenity set and 3 box loaders) and I have the general promo, box promo for the action figures and I might have a spare San Diego promo I'll have to check on that. My extra autos are Jewel Staite ;D, Alan Tudyk and Chiwetel Ejiofor and My extra costumes are Wash, Jayne and 2 Inaras ;D and I have a few foils collation was great so I don't have that many loose inserts.I will probably be getting a case of binders so I'll keep You posted on that
Have a Great Weekend
Rich
If You have any questions feel free to e-mail Me.

PM sent  ;D

I noticed that there was an uncut sheet for this set. I have never dealt with getting an uncut sheet before for the other cards I collect, and I was wondering since this sheet was limited to 199 made for this set should I get that first if I want to get a complete a Master Set for Serenity ??? I don't know how well these kind of cards sell so I thought I would ask people on the forum what they thought.

I never had any trouble getting uncut sheets for the Inkworks sets that I have (Buffy, Angel, Charmed, Smallville, Tomb Raider and Witchblade sets), although the numbers on each set vary. I have never paid more than £40.00 for any of them.

Thanks for that information, like I said I never really dealt with Uncut sheets before so I wanted to know if they I should get that first since they seem the rarest from this set.

Well, the uncut sheets do tend to sell out but you can usually find a dealer that has them for quite awhile.  Earlier sets were limited to 500, and thus still quite easy to find.  Since Inkworks started limiting them to lower number they are a bit harder to come by.

If you are interested in the Serenity sheet, let me know.  I happen to know where #97 of 199 is...  >:D  And £40.00 is a little high except for some of the really hard ones to find now.  When they are new you should be able to do much better.

Why is my case the only one that did NOT break down with a master set :p  Missing 1 auto and had 1 damaged auto and 1 damaged PW card to send back, along with the redemptin card. I could only make 2 sets of the 9 card puzzle out of an entire case - that seemed odd as well.

Hated the Morena Baccarin costume card - don't care if it's the only shot in the movie with her, I would have much preferred an image of something other than an arm that I can't even tell is her (not having seen the movie yet, though I'm sure it is her)

But other than that, I'm glad to see that Firefly finally made it onto paper - short-lived, but much-loved :)

Hopefully here are the images from the autograph cards

Or not ???

However if you use the link in the signature it should work

Those are some really nice looking cards!  I'm getting more into Firefly.  The sci-fi channel had a whole days worth of episodes on yesterday.  I got to catch a few of them.  Did you get all those cards from one case?

I got a Master set off e-Bay at a reasonable price (about £20 more than a case)

I got my box today  ;D :

Serenity Box Pulls:

Box Topper for Figures DST-1

Box Topper: The Truth Within BL2

9 Card Puzzle Set (R3, R4, R5, R6)

Woman of Serenity
  W52 A mechanic named Kaylee
  W53 Girl on the Run
  W54 Serenity's Angels

Pieceworks Card: Sean Maher as Simon piece of his T-Shirt

Autograph Card: Morena Baccarin as Inara

This set is just awesome and I can't wait to complete it  ;D

Hey Wendi!

That was a great box!  You beat the odds on both the Renegades and Women of Serenity inserts!  I would say you had good Pieceworks and Auto pulls as well, but frankly I don't think this set has any bad pulls at all.

They will look good in your binder next to your uncut sheet as well! ;)

Ed

I have a question for the people on the forum who collected these cards. Did anyone get their Redemption card back in the mail yet  ???
