Thanks!



This D1 promo. Came with figure and is real difficult to get now.

Why don't you just buy a figure? You can get them as cheap as $5 on eBay. I just bought an Anya figure about a month ago and I know the card was in there. I'll have to see if I can find what I did with the card.

Unfortunately, they're not included with all the figures. I read somewhere that the cards were included with the figures in cases with an assortment of characters but not those that had a single character.

After researching it a little more, it looks like the promo cards were only included in the basic figure assortment (not the exclusives). The basic figures were:

Season 4 Anya:

Season 4 Tara:

I think there may have been US/UK differences as well.. also if buying on eBay I have to count shipping to the UK, and the chepest I found was $11.60 for one Charmed figure!

This is still my Holy Grail promo, thankfully I have it and the other 5 in the set. Nothing since has come even close.

Ah yes, I forgot about that thread. The cards look even better than the scans, although they are thinner than regular card stock.

It would have to be the P1 Godzilla test card or the SB1 Lion King card. Those are the only two biggies I'm missing.
