2020 Upper Deck Marvel Anime

[powder132366]

I opened 10 packs in increments of 2.

2 Hyper Mosaic (Scarlet Witch, Dazzler)
2 Mega Moon Tier 2 Parallels (Winter Solider, Black Bolt)
2 Red Artist Autos /120 (Loki, Nova)
2 Idols (X-Force, GOTG)
1 Mechanized (Hawkeye)
1 Stax Top-Layer (Spider-Woman)

I like the look of the cards but the price point on these just feels too high. I'm also really surprised that the combined factor is 10 and not 5 for the base cards.

Did 5 packs. Got a hyper of War Machine, Mega Moon of Spider-Man, Rip Card Gold of X-Men and Red Artist Auto Parallel - Peach Momoko of Multiple Man.

[ReignManLives]

Does anyone know if the numbered capsule characters are more likely to contain numbered mini cards?

[glorbgorb]

I tried two packs just to see what they were like.

Got a Red Artist Auto Parallel - Peach Momoko of Jugernaut; and a Level 2 Chibi of Gamora.

The Gold capsules feature Gold, un-numbered
minis. The Green have the Green #/10, and Red have Red #/5.

I like the concept of the series. The base set cards I'm not that fond of. They look like reprints of sketch cards more than the painted artwork we usually see in Marvel base sets.

The insert sets are all nicely done. It would cost a fortune to put together a set of Chibi or Hanafuda cards though. The Kaiju cars are a brilliant fit for this set.

I think a set like this would benefit from a variety of base card artists rather than a single base artist. Something more like a Flair or Fleer Ultra release.

If you want to do a single artist set, maybe do a Marvel Anime Masterworks set.

Bought the equivalent of 4 boxes. Definitely a nice set and had fun chasing some big cards but will now focus on trading base to foil. Here’s a breakdown of what I hit:

10 Hyper Mosiac
4 Japanese Mega Moon ((2)Tier 2)
3 Anime Autos
7 Capsule Cards (1 GOTG Red /49)
1 Mini Chibi
2 Idols
7 Kaiju
5 Mechanized
15 Stax (1 SP)
2 Sketches

Can anyone help identify the character to the right of Spider Gwen.

I transferred my "hits" over to COMC. I'm surprised to see the Momoko Autos at roughly $35, the Hanafuda for $50-60, and the Chibi t2s at $30. Might as well sell now before more and more get transferred over!

Unfortunately the Mechanized and Kaiju cards are already in a race to the bottom, at 30-cent or less.

Being new to e-packs is it best to buy random packs 2-3 at a time or full boxes?

What do you find works best?

Great sketch! The second character looks like Gwenpool.

Neither has an advantage IMO. You could open 2 boxes worth by the pack and hit nothing(I've done it many times). But you can also do by the pack and get 4 boxes worth of stuff in 2 boxes worth of packs(I've done it many times).

If it's me I open boxes. To many clicks by the pack, haha. Cases are 2 clicks...open pack...open rest of case button. Can do the same with a box.

PS. My fav set of the year. Staying away from MM, so I spent MM money on Anime .

Started a thread about jumping into the hobby. This looks like it could be an easy place to start. Can someone give me a brief explanation of how this epack thing works?

You can buy packs online, open them online, store them online or ship them home(via comc). That's the basics. Biggest draw IMO is the trading.

Thanks!

So if I understand right doing some reading base stuff you can't have unless you get enough dupes to trade in but anything above that can be taken as a physical card?

Some products are all physical, like MM for example. Every card you can ship.

Some aren't, like Anime. What you can do with Anime is either buy enough to combine them to a "color spiral" base card yourself(takes 10) or yes, you can trade to do the same thing.

Like I said, the trading is why I use it. I put together the Peach auto set /120 in what, 3 days? Achievements are another reason but unless you want to drop a lot of money, you really won't have a chance at those. But, you will have a chance to really stick it to the guys who are if you get something they need. I say that as the person who gets stuck often, when I decide to do a set on there. Haha.

Ok awesome. Sounds interesting enough, just have to decide if that is where I want to put my money or do the whole physical opening thing.

I am also considering some GPK (do you collect those at all?) and the new Marvel Metal X-Men looks interesting but pre order stuff is all sold out.

[Igman7]

4 packs, 1 Kaiju (Monstrom), 2 Japanese Mega Moon (tier 1) Ultron and Emma Frost and a X-Men Anime Capsule Characters Gold....probably done

Yeah, control issues caused 4 more packs...Avengers gold Capsule, Deadpool Mechanized, Bucky Barnes Peach red auto and Dr. Strange Stax middle layer SP

[mmbtvs]

2 packs today.
1st one Defenders gold capsules
2nd one this monster sketch by Juri Chinchilla

[webjon]

Wow, amazing sketch. Congrats.

[1992UDFootball]

The e-pack release of this would be a lot more fun if there were a lot less drama queens/douchebags on e-pack.

..guess that goes for every release on e-pack.

[Cyphon25]

I am starting to build a small base set on there and have an extra X-23 if anyone needs it. I will trade for any base card I need.
