Breygent has cards printed on the bottom of all the boxes they produce. Card is part of the box so you either have to keep the entire box or carefully cut it from the back. The back of the card is blank.

Thanks for the reply that sounds pretty cool. Maybe I'll flip a coin to see what I do. Razz

Bump!

For those of you that have opened the product, can you tell me if the basic card of "The Legacy" (I believe card #49 that has the checklist on the back), lists the sketch card artist names as well as the regular 49 base cards? Breygent did this with their first Oz release.

My comic store in town didn't get the boxes in, I'll have to go to the Bay probably.

Thanks if you can let me know!!!

Yes, all the artists are listed on the back of the checklist. I also have sketches from one artist where one of the cards has the artist's bio on the back, and another just says "congratulations", it's sort of a generic type card. Where these sketches done later on in order to have enough for the series?

Yes, they sent us additional cards that had the generic backs.

Thanks, Batman, for the checklist response!

Like Chris H said, we all originally did our set number of sketches and sent them and the remaining blanks back in. Breygent then requested additional ones on top of that, and those that were able to help out were sent the blank-backed ones.

Thanks. I'm glad you like it. It's also one of my scarcest images in the set. That's the first one I've seen pulled.

Box #2045 of 4800

I was really looking forward to this set. I went for one box since funds were a touch tight (Christmas, bills etc).

I can tell you the cards are superb. Real quality stock and beautifully designed cards.

My box yielded 1 full set, above average chase cards, but no autograph card and no sketch card.

Verdict: - will seriously consider whether to buy Breygent boxes in future. Shake Head to say I was disappointed, would be an understatement..

While I was very happy about getting an auto card and sketch card in the 1 box I opened I was disappointed in that I couldn't even make 1 base set out of all the packs. Got the standard number of regular chase as others. Autograph card was from The Day The Earth Stood Still. The sketch card was an awesome King Kong by Rich Molinelli.
