I've bought some packs, this is worrying. Mad

Why would Tom make it easy for the unscrupulous seller on THAT site. Whilst all the sketches are great it would be nice to have a chance of finding some of the out-standing sketches available.

No Worries. Thumb Up We have never sold or will ever sell anything that is tampered with. If we receive something from the manufacturer that looks questionable we do not ship to customers and have it corrected at the 1st level.

However I have to point out that Tom did a fabulous job with this release overall with quality and packaging. Unscrupulous sellers on the other hand are something to be cautious of.

nothing to worry about as tape should rip the envelope and take paper up with it when you open it. Tom

The packaging itself is quite attractive albiet a little small. If the method of sealing the packs was changed up, with some type of unique seal (something that would tear upon opening) then there would be no problems. I am sure that Tom will take in the feedback and correct the potential problem with the next release.

If you are opening up the packs very carefully, the minimal ammount of flecks would virtually disappear when the tape was put back into place...I played with them a little while I was opening mine.

Received my packs today and was able to reseal them without any problem. As Igman7 states you do get a few flecks "sometimes" but when you reseal them they do indeed virtually disappear.

I will post the sketches I got from 20 packs later (probably the week-end). I was disappointed with the breakdown of the promo/base cards, out of the 20 packs only managed to hit 7 base cards the rest were all promos. Got 3 sets of promos 1-7 (where is promo 8 found?).

If that is the hit rate for base cards it will take about 115 packs to put a base set together Frown

Promo 8 was a Philly non sport show promo card but these were also put in random as a bonus for those that could not make the show. Your packs should have had 1 promo card and 1 base card per pack as I loaded most of this run myself.We are working on a new seal for the Cartoon series and the rest of the series we are doing.Sad we have to make sure everything is tamper proof (100%).But on a positive note The Cartoon series will have a special item in each pack which will be announced soon

Thanks Tom

Waxy, you've mixed up 2 artists names there. There's Dane Ault and Darren Auck (your card.)
Both great at what they do.

That was a great 15 packs, but I've opened up a total of 90 all together! Overall, though, I've been pretty happy with what I pulled.
