I've had sticky / smeared cards before in (I think) a Strictly Ink box of Dr Who cards. I contacted them and sent them the offending cards. They were really helpful and replaced the cards and sent me a couple of free autographs as well. Try contacting the manufacturer for some replacements.

I thought about buying a box of these but at the moment the prop cards are really cheap on ebay so rather than spend £40 on a box I would rather spend a tenner and get a card I like.

The chocolate bar wrapper cards are quite nice and I've bought one of the Wonka bar prop card too. Its a nice souvenir of a quite good film.

Which are the chocolate bar cards from the retail boxes, the golden ticket ones or the others ?

Was that your sisters card I bought then ? Smile If so I'll let you 'visit' it at the next toy fair or Mem Big Grin

I was given a casting of a whole Wonka bar (taken from a 'real' one),in resin, painted it would look great. But it looks exactly like the prop card section.

The golden ticket cards are the Retail boxes the remainder are from the Hobby boxes. I bought a retail card for about $3.50 so buying a box really isnt worth it just for the prop card alone.

I finally purchased a box and broke it down today (Just found out it's a retail not Hobby box).
Got two complete base sets plus 4 extra cards.
5 Foil (1:5): M2,M4,M6, M8, M9.
Wonka Golden Ticket - Chilly Chocolate Creme Authentic Prop Card.

I was only exspecting 3 foil cards.

Despite what it says on the cards (numbers wise) the Chilly Chocolate Creme seems to be the hardest to find. Confused

Very colorful set. Reduce the thick front border. It tends to crowd the image. Images colorful and clear. Got lucky and pulled a high dollar prop card. Packs were hard to open, but that is typical for Artbox.

Congratulations on the 'wrapper' card. There's some nice versions of this card which show the cartoons on the paper really nicely ! Smile

Got one of the retail tins today (the one with several cast members on the top). I was glad to see this one so I could get one of each of the two tins.
Anywho, was looking forward to getting one of the gold retail prop cards, but none in the tin! (I was under the impression that each tin had one of the golden ticket retail props). Oh well, at least I got the tin... Roll Eyes
