: My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : beckham1 August 13, 2004, 09:22:13 AM Unfortunately I was way behind the times on LOTR cards and just bought my first box (actually my second the first one I got ripped of by a seller and am trying to get some of my money back now - that is another story if anyone wants to hear it)....
...anyway so I got the box today ($375 if anyone wanted to know the going price) and opened it with great fear and excitement! The bad news is I pulled a Sam Auto ( :'( I was hoping for a Gandalf, and would have been ok with a Arwen or Aragorn) The good news is I also pulled a Gimli auto! :P ::) 8) ;D :D ;) Super excited about that pull (the only card where odds are 1:260) everything else is 1:24. I was hoping that considering that card is one every 7 boxes or so - I was thinking I would have a chance for another auto of the 1:24's, but didn't happen. I haven't decided if I am going to keep them or sell them as I don't have any of the set except these two so it probably will never happen! If you want to make an offer let me know... but no promises on selling it or not putting it on ebay. I could probably break even if I sold both of them and try to pick up an Arwen and Aragorn. : Re:My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : Goofyjas August 13, 2004, 06:28:03 PM All the autos were 1:24 so you always had a chance at 2 autos a box, Just the ratios of the autos were different, Gimli was the hardest to pull.
nice pull 2 autos is better then 1! : Re:My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : Roz August 13, 2004, 08:12:57 PM True, I thought this story was coming to a horrible conclusion when you said you pulled a Sam!
:) But hooray, everyone's favourite dwarf pulled through for us (though some of you may prefer Gloin... sorry about that!). ;D Congratulations! : Re:My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : ferdinand_the_yak August 13, 2004, 08:18:13 PM Congrats on the great pull! Bet you were rather tense after you pulled Sam and before you got Gimli! :D

You know you are really too tall to be a dwarf!!! ;D : Re:My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : gimli August 17, 2004, 08:23:06 PM If is what is inside that counts ;D
: Re:My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : Roz August 17, 2004, 08:25:00 PM True!
Are you a bravehearted, heroic Elf hater? Would you objoect loudly and rudely as you are being taken blindfolded to see the lady Galadriel?? ;D : Re:My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : ferdinand_the_yak August 17, 2004, 08:34:19 PM Oi! No elf hating around here please
And no dwarf swear words either! ;D : Re:My first LOTR FOTR Hobby box Opened & Results : savage727 August 17, 2004, 09:11:22 PM Wow nice pulls Beckham!! Gimli is one of the Auto cards I am looking forward to buying someday.
I had the same thought as FTY mentioned about you first pulling "Sam"! Glad it turned out well for you! :) |
