Holy Grail Card(s)
I think I'd call those GOF cards Holy Grails, or at least Holy Moleys!

Here's a picture. The mirror mirror card, believe it or not, I pack pulled. I paid money for the other two, before Nimoy's unfortunate death.

But the biggest prize here is the Kung Fu Panda 3 fortune cookie!

Sweet cards cardaddict. I always liked those Mirror, Mirror versions and the other title autos are even better when you factor in that they should have cost you less than any signed ST card. Congrats. Thumb Up

I would have eaten that cookie by now. Big Grin

I've always wanted a Printing Plate from Charmed Season One. I know they did mounted displays as dealer incentives, but heard rumours a few people found lose printing plate cards randomly inserted by accident into individual packs or boxes. Have never seen one but hope to one day come across someone parting with one.

I did not know about the Charmed plates.
I do have an Inkworks mounted BLACK plate for card number 40 of Buffy Season Seven though.

I remember when Inkworks used to advertise those mounted plate sets on their website.

I would like to get one from one of their X-Files sets if I could ever find one/one I liked!

The Simpsons Anniversary Celebration Card 29 Front (10th Anniversary)Magenta Colour





Buffy the Vampire Slayer Reflections The High School Years Card 13 Front Colour Yellow

That's a really nice collection there John. Llike the Buffy ones and Haven't see that Charmed printing plate before.
I have one from that Charmed set featuring Shannen Doherty (Prue) with the Grimlocks. Will post when my phones charged up. I'd like to collect more (of the Charmed plates) but they're not cheap to come by. But I got the Prue one for $6 so that was a steal.

That's cool Willow was one of my favorites. Do you have a master set there? Some niece pieceworks. I know the Toga variant was very popular when the set was released.

I think I'm missing one autograph variant, but I can't remember what it was.

I have several of the Angel and Smallville framed plates. I think I had a Buffy one. I know I got a Cordilla Chase Angel Plate for cordillachasefan as a nsu secret santa gift years ago.

That's a cool secret santa gift to get. Would you be willing to post photos of your Smallville/Angel plates?

It's not really a Holy Grail, but I just noticed that I possess the very first card (of Superman flying with Lois Lane in his arms) pictured on the Cryptozoic site for its Superman the Legends release.

Calling it a holy grail card and then admitting I haven't actively looked for one in probably 6 or 7 years us misleading, but--I have always wanted one of the Daniel Roebuck auto cards from the Inkworks release of Lost Season 1. He inscribed 8 or 10 of them only. I have an image stored somewhere with all of them scanned.

I just meant it's the first card pictured on the site, upper left, top row. Not the first sketch packaged or anything like that.

My holy grails are:-

X Files San Diego 1999 Fan Club Cards with the scratch off area
---------------------


I do not have these, myself, and I never saw them before. But in the past few days I noticed 3 of the 4 from the set on ebay, and 2 of them are UN scratched.

However, 2 of them have asking prices of $75 dollars each !
