I started late, week 4, but my experience so far has been that week 3 was the toughest to catch up on and was the first week it did not sell out.

I wish the price point was more like $9.99 for the four cards. It's great to have a card set out for this but there are some swing/misses on some of these cards. I'm also curious why the Fratelli brothers weren't in this as characters. They could have done some fun inserts or funny cards with this set - not sure the designer was actually a fan of the movie.

I've opened a fair number of packs and only hit 1 plate and 1 sketch. Hopefully, I hit 1-2 more before I'm done but based on odds, I am due.

Happy Goonies day! Only three more weeks to go!

Hit a printing plate this morning - the base are very lopsided for me so far.

Feels like there are a lot fewer people buying this week based on previous week's trading.

I've noticed goonies trades for me have been slowing down... the price is just too high at least for me it is... I ended up skipping like 4 weeks... hopefully people will be trading on week 10 because I'm way behind

Agreed it is overpriced - like I said before $9.99 seems more like a price point for this with what it has.

I checked the marketplace out of curiosity.

Week 1-2: Most cards are around 250 available.
Week 3: More like 200-220 of each.
Week 4: Around 190-200
Week 5-6: 180-190
Week 7: 160-180
Week 8: Around 150 per card at the moment - we'll see where it ends up after a few more days.

You even see it in the variants it goes from 700-800 in the first few weeks down to 500-550 more recently.

Week 1-2 were the only sell out weeks I believe.

Well, I did a thing ...

I bought the entire 1-10 Characters set (Gold #/499) on COMC.
Total price = $26.76

Now I have to decide my next Goonies challenge.

I snagged the entire 1-10 Characters set (Silver #/1499) on COMC.
Total price = $7.53

It seems like a bunch of early Goonies buyers are scaling back on number of achievements they were shooting for. Week 7 might be the lowest seller yet. I did manage to trade around my base dupes from 5 packs to even out my set but you can tell the set is losing steam. Fortunately only 3 weeks left!
Two weeks later and it looks like UD is launching Marvel Flair at the exact same time as Goonies week 9. UD must really be trying to drive down Goonies sales.

As of tonight - the week 8 numbers look more like the week 5-6 numbers.

I also was looking through unlocked sketch cards - I know, it's subjective. I would say I'm about 50/50 on liking what I see versus not liking. I saw 1-2 that stood out as higher quality and 2-3 that were not really good at all. A few of the sketches were to the point where I couldn't tell what character it was supposed to be.

Week 9 tomorrow - good luck to all!

Finally put enough together for 2 full achievements of each. I agree with everyone that price is too high. Hoping for at least one doubloon and not 2 of the fake diamonds. Managed to trade for one sketch(the key) by trading a Beast sketch I got from a few packs of Flair.

If anyone is looking to swap as we head into the last week - I have extra base that I will swap to even out base - not sure if I want to go after additional sets, so try and leave me at least 1 of each base in case I go for another one.

A few puzzles - lots of BW Variants and Characters. Happy to move cards around to even my account out and get lined up for the finish.

There are a tonne of sketch’s. I thought they would run out so had to buy 5 week 10 packs to get both B/w card. Really happy with my Sketch. 4 card sketch from AD Rock. Pretty sure it’s AD Rock from the Beastie Boys

Finally had a chance to get my packs today - if anyone is looking to swap base, golds, black white, puzzles. Try and keep like for like on swaps and my wish list should be up to date.

I also have some duplicate achievements I wouldn't mind swapping out and happy to look at sketch trades as well.

ePack is Swipe79 like on here.

I have a ton of base left over - almost a full set.

Trying to finish one puzzle and need one more gold to finish one more set there.

If anyone is trading, let me know and we can hopefully help each other out.

Apparently AD ROCK sketch artist is Adam "Ad Rock" Dobrzeniecki… not the guy from Beastie Boys.
