What Are You Opening?
Thought i would start the ball rolling.

I for one will be getting a few boxes from sets i have missed out on like Wizard of Oz for instance.

What boxes have you set aside for April 14th, or what boxes do you hope to have by then??

Roger Dean (FPG 1993). Hopefully a few others too.

Maybe BSG Season 2 or Veronica Mars Season 2. Or, I may pick up a box or two at Philly.... something I can open with my son. Depends on what I find.

Not everyone needs to post what they are opening. Hopefully, we'll have some surprises during the day. That makes it more fun, at least in my opinion.

LOL - I have now bought a box of Inkworks Justice League & Inkworks Family Guy s.1 for this - but I keep opening them early!

I guess I'll need to not have a box sitting in my house "in advance"

I know of at least one dealer who will have an OTB Show Special that includes a box just for kids. Now it's up to you to hunt him down and find him. Harris is going to have a list of all the dealers with specials at the show.

I was going to try and save a box of Stargate S9 from the 3 boxes i have on order. However, the release date has been put back so I will probably try and find something I wouldn't normally collect on eBay.

I think I'm gonna get my girlfriend to choose something for me, or even better, we both get a box and open them together.

I've settled on Veronica Mars Season 1. Smile

I've never opened any Season 1 product (even though I managed to obtain some of the key singles from this series) and I think this will nicely complement the soon-to-be released Veronica Mars Season 2 which I've already pre-ordered and should be getting next week(?).

Note: One of the Card Talk Advertisers has generously gotten into the spirit of OTB and is offering FREE SHIPPING if you mention OTB (not sure if this applies internationally). Clap I made sure to make use of this offer (which is where I am getting my box from). My apologies in advance if I am not supposed to post that information here.

I just purchased two boxes of Spike The Complete Story and will be opening those on OTB day. Hope to pull an autographed Pieceworks cards out of one of them, but have to wait and see....

Man, April 14 is a long time to wait with 2 unopened boxes sitting in the house. Roll Eyes
