This morning I heard on local radio an advert for them and then did an online search for find out the details. I believe some of the information may have released a week ago.

It is not surprising that the staff who have to give them out may be the last to know.

It may well be Thursday before I have an opportunity visit a store.

John

Apparantly our store is now giving them out one day after knowing nothing about it. Shake Head

Tons of packs for sale on ebay. so much for having to spend £10 to get one.

I may well although I have only two duplicates at the moment.

I visited a store yesterday as part of the weekly shop and all they had were the the giveaways no album and no packets for sale at 50p.

Today I was fortunate that a visit to another local town gave me the opportunity to visit their Sainsbury's and i was able to buy the album plus 10 packets, 5 of the packets contained 6 cards instead of the 4 shown on the wrapper.

I have over 50 different numbers of the 140 with a least 18 different backs. The backs have different coloured Lego bricks to enable the game of Dominos to be played.

regards

John

I've got a few and will be getting more. Once I get close (or if I get close!) I will post a trade list. My first priority is a set then look at the backs

Anyone know where there is checklist for these. The ones I've seen only seem to mention the regular cards. In the first pack I opened, there seems to be a gold variant.

That would be either card 139 or 140. I have both and I have yet to see a normal version for either so I believe that the Gold version was intended. I am need about 19 or so to complete the basic set and I have about 90 back variant versions/ The album contains a list of all 140.

John

Collation of a pack contents are very poor. Had a pack with 1 card in, several with 5 and one pack had 7 cards in when they are supposed to have 4 cards per pack!!
