I received my box today and I pulled:

- 1 base set
- behind the scenes C06, C08
- special moments F02, F03, F05, F06
- Wardrobe M11 (Leonard's green hoodie)
- Autograph A06 Kevin Sussman (Stuart)

I'm quite pleased with the results, because Stuart is one of my favorite supporting characters.

But I'm also a bit disappointed, because on all the base cards, there is no picture at all of any but the 5 main cast members. At least the ones who have an autograph should have been pictured somewhere.

And can someone please explain to me why the wardrobe cards are labelled "M"? Did someone put the W upside down? And what does "F" stand for? Is "C" for chase, or cast?

I believe M is for material

I don't know how this license worked, but I'm sure that the images had to be approved by the studio, so maybe not everything was available.

Or, since its a small base set and an ensemble cast of five, maybe it was thought that this is what collectors want to see. Hopefully other seasons will open it up more because I agree with you, I would like other characters on the cards.

And what I really would like is a bigger autograph list next time. The breakdowns on this one are very simple. If you score one of five you are very, very happy with your box, if you score one of the two you are happy with your box, and if you get one of the four commons you are disappointed. What can I say, I haven't opened mine yet. I'm afraid. Big Grin

Ive seen the results from on this forum and another forum, as well as at a show about 14 cases broken. To date, ive only seen ONE a5 Kunal autograph being pulled, and it was in a mention on this forum. But for that ive seen about 7 parsons and Kaley autographs each...That seem oddly out of sync?

Not really its a small sample of whats been pulled, there has a lot of them on ebay. I read this on another forum and I thinks it just someone trying to inflate the price of their cards, Parsons and Kaley will be the money cards of this set Wish I could have held onto mine but Uncle sam wants his! Confused

I haven't posted my full case break yet but I pulled a Raj and a Penny as the two big autograph hits from my case. So that's at least 2 A5's from the Card Talk boards.


I'll trade my super extra rare Raj for anyone's just plain regular rare Sheldon. Wink

Someone has one of the wardrobe redemption cards up on Ebay. They want $1500.00 for it buy it now. Seems a bit pricey don't you think?
I know one of the walking dead ones (also only 25) went for $750.
What do you all think?

i agree. while it's a nice card and oversized and extremely limited, considering what the "normal" costume cards are going for $1500 is too high. however, if there is one person out there who is willing to pay that, then the card is worth that.

but, is that person out there?

(i am certainly not that person Smile )

In terms of what I consider inherit value I would rate autographs and "attractive" sketches higher than any material or costume swatch regardless of the size. For a spare $1,500 I would pick up the autographs of as many of the rare 5 that I could get before looking at this card. A collector could find many whole wardrobe costumes for that price and you have to know that this type of card is likely to be reproduced in any future sets, which will increase the supply and likely negatively effect the price. I'm sure anyone who seriously considers buying $1,500 costume cards is not too worried about it. Wink

Back to the breaks, I bought 3 boxes, couldn't help myself. Big Grin

Got all the usual, cards were of good quality and I won't bore you with the details. The hits were as follows:

1st Box - A11 Courtney Henggeler
M4 Sheldon

2nd Box - A8 Laurie Metcalf
M11 Leonard

3rd Box - A10 Alice Amter
M8 Howard

Happy to get the Metcalf, it was the lucky 2nd box that made me try for a 3rd.
