I don't have too much time today to do the full write up, but can answer any questions. Off top of my head first case had Martin Starr, Angourie Rice, dual auto Batalon/Revolori, booklet auto Woodbine, and a few SP relics. Second case no SP auto but like 4 of the 1:75 autos including Batalon, Chernus x2, Marshall-Green) and a Woodbine auto memorabilia. 2 sketches per case so far, pretty good quality sketches. 1-2 print plates per case as well

real talk. people are gonna get hosed so hard. like if u don't pull a Keaton, good luck getting money back on case. there's a Keaton book on ebay for 1K and nobodies hit it yet. like unless it's super short print like the flash guy is. even with a Keaton, you'd be hard pressed to break even. just take your money and go to the local casino and drop it all on Red. at least u don't have to waste time listing and shipping stuff

If all you're interested in is getting your money back, cards probably aren't a good fit for you.

It's times like this that I am sooo glad UD won't allow distributors to sell direct to individuals like myself. They usually keep me from making poor decisions lol.

Very, very, very jealous. That is the exact one I want. Just a better design than the base in my opinion. Is the card thin, or thick?

The regular auto design is not good. The auto sticker is over top the name and character so that you can even it read the print. So much wasted space -character pic should have been bigger.

The autograph designs are a real miss for me. I wanted a Martin Starr until I saw the cards.

Same here! Loved "Freaks And Geeks" so I wanted the Martin too but not thrilled with the picture of him and design...Chris / Cards Infinity did pull a Keaton Book yesterday (at the 6:00 mark) https://youtu.be/2KG4xw8FMj0

If feedback is being passed back here is mine:

Looking at Hippie's cards above:

The design on the Hannibal Buress card: The text under the signature is not readable, and detracts from the signature. Also the photo seems awkwardly small. Additionally the photo selection seems like it could have been better, this Buress and the Starr are good examples of pictures that could be improved.

The design on the Martin Starr card: The signature looks like an afterthought and gets lost in the background. Other than that I don't mind the design -- I do think the actor's picture could be improved.

The Keaton card: Personally I don't like oversize cards and I avoid them. When the booklet is closed it is covering the signature, so storage and display are more difficult than they need to be. The card looks decent otherwise, the actor image is large (again seems like kind of a grumpy photo), the text under the signature is distracting again.

Those are my thoughts.

I can pass anything along, but it takes time and discussion in order for it to have the possibility of being implemented.

Bought only 1 box, from Blowout, seeing how Keaton was the only autograph I was interested in. I don't think I did horrible, though I really don't remember this girl in the movie...

Blue /99 #83 (close up of Vulture)
Red /199 #15 (Spiderman running)
Webbed Threads Single #WTS10 (Spiderman)
Webbed Threads Dual #WTD10 (Spiderman/Spiderman)
Single Signer Autograph #SS16 Angourie Rice as Betty

She was one of the hosts of the school news.
She was also in The Nice Guys with Ryan Gosling & Russell Crowe as Goslings daughter.
Good hit.
