Disney Treasures (Upper Deck)

After the extrordinary price the last DT Jack Skellinton sketch card went for, I decided to try my luck with some boxes myself.

Incidently, It may (or may not be a good omen), These boxes actually arrived yesterday (Nov 18th) which I now understand to have been Micky Mouses Birthday. I couldn't sleep knowing these boxes were here so I'm crackin' these puppies open in the middle of the night.

So here goes:
Box One
10 Walt Disney cards
3 Micky Mouse cards (#13, 20, & 43)
1 Snow White card (SW10)
0 Reel Piece of History cards Frown
0 Sketch cards Frown Frown
0 Walt Disney Signature cards Frown Frown Frown

A VERY dissapointing box. It can only get better after that

Box Two
10 Walt Disney cards
22 Micky Mouse cards (what a difference to the 1st box!)
2 Snow White cards (SW7 & SW10)
1 Reel Piece of History card (PH9 Beauty & The Beast)
0 Sketch cards Frown Frown
0 Walt Disney Signature cards Frown Frown Frown

Still looking for the magic cards that will get me a mention in the next NSU edition.

Box Three
10 Walt Disney cards
21 Micky Mouse cards
3 Snow White cards (SW2, SW6 & SW8)
1 Reel Piece of History card (PH5 Allice in Wonderland)
0 Sketch cards Frown Frown
0 Walt Disney Signature cards Frown Frown Frown

Oh well no Ultra-rare sketches or 1/1 sigs

If only I knew just how many sketch cards have been found along with the number of unopened boxes are left. I could work out the odds and decide if it is worth continuing to search.

It's like trying to find the Wonka Golden Ticket!

Never give up - NEVER surrender

Just a thought, but is it possible that Upper Deck have included some of the rare cards - including the Walt Disney 1/1 - in the Mickey MOuse bobbing head packs. Maybe they reasoned that many of these would remain sealed as a box? If so the odds would change considerably.

Boldlygone, box #1 was horrible - the worst I've ever seen! Eek

I managed to refrain from purchasing another box in Secaucus. I find it much easier to simply bang my head against the wall without spending the money.

I had such I disappointing 6 boxes that I refused to post them because I'd have to see in type just how bad I did. Out of 6 boxes I got 4 Pieces of Reel History, 7 Snow White Cards, 3/4 of the Mickey Mouse Movies, 4 complete sets and No Sketches...I was hoping for 3 of the 1/1 Cut Signatures!

Opened my first six boxes of cards this morning - Disney Treasures. Hoping for the big ones, but in the end I am kind of happy with the outcome. Here's the breakdown:

BOX 1
1 Reel Piece of History cards (PH7)
2 Snow White cards (SW4 & SW9)
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disney Signature card

BOX 2
1 Reel Piece of History cards (PH9)
2 Snow White cards (SW2 & SW8)
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disney Signature card

BOX 3
2 Reel Piece of History cards (PH5 & PH9)
3 Snow White cards (SW6, SW9 & SW10)
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disney Signature card

WOW, very happy. One pack had a Snow White Card AND a Reel Piece of History card in it!! Smile

BOX 4
1 Reel Piece of History cards (PH2)
3 Snow White cards (SW1, SW4 & SW6)
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disney Signature card

BOX 5
1 Reel Piece of History cards (PH2)
2 Snow White cards (SW3 & SW5)
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disney Signature card

AGAIN! Another pack had a Snow White Card AND a Reel Piece of History card in it!! Smile Smile

BOX 6
1 Reel Piece of History cards (PH7)
3 Snow White cards (SW3, SW5 & SW7)
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disney Signature card

Six box summary:
7 Reel Piece of History cards
15 Snow White cards
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disney Signature card

Overall, pretty happy. Bit disappointed, about not getting a Sketch Card or a Walt Disney 1/1 Signature card - especially because the trader I purchased the boxes from ASSURED me that they would contain some?!? Wink Ah well, maybe they will in the next five that are coming? We can dream. Angel

I'm slowly working my way through the other cards for the six boxes. Very disappointed about filmography cards though - ONLY ONE COMPLETE SET??? Next set is missing 3 cards and the next set after that is missing 15 cards Confused. 5 Sets of Retrospective cards and a few odds. Oh well, back to sorting the common cards... Bouncey

I am going to have one more try to get the Walt card or a sketch.

My last box breakdown:

5 cards short of a base set with one duplicate card
1 full set of 10 walt disney cards
22 Micky Mouse cards
2 Snow White cards
1 Reel piece of history card (PH2 fantasia)
0 Sketch cards
0 Walt Disnet cut sig card

And so endeth the dream

Perhaps I will have more luck with the Disney Treasures 2 set although a Carl Barks Signature doesn't have quite the same ring to it as walt Disney

what makes me even more annoyed about this, is that it is possible someone has found this or will find this Eg a child in a pack their parent bought them to keep them quiet and they don't know what they have got and it will be lost forever

That would be horrible. I hope the parent would recognize a 1/1 card when they see one.

Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead only try to realize the truth.

I checked mine and there were no marks. Hopefully it's not too noticable.
