My original post got lost, so hopefully this one goes through.

I opened a box of one of my favorite licenses after midnight tonight: Star Trek: TNG. I managed to snag a box at the comics shop I work at.

I got a base set, 8 silver parallels, 4 tribute cards, 2 USS Enterprise cards and 3 holodeck cards along with autographs from Mark L. Taylor, Megan Cole (L), Jonathan del Arco (L) and Tony Todd (EL). I am pretty happy with my pulls and will edit this message a little later with more details. Needless to say I have always loved OTB Day

Good night!

Val

Also opened STNG Series 2!

Same chase cards as cordelia - and the following auto's: Vyto Ruginis, Barbara Tarbuck, Jeffrey Hayenga and Dey Young - 1 Limited and 3 commons - Not exciting but good while it lasted!

Having just sorted the set I notice that the base cards end at 176 and jump to 179 for checklist - anybody know where 177 and 178 went?

177 & 178 are the checklists for Series 1 and are only found in those boxes.

I was hoping to delete the question before it was answered as I realised straight after turning computer off! Thanks anyway

I opened up a box of Inkworks The Osbournes that I picked up at the Fall Philly show -

Happy OTB day.

This year I went for a box of Lost Season 2, for two reasons: one I hadn't opened an Inkworks box for a while and two I was hoping to pull a Tania Raymonde auto.
What I did pull was the correct number of inserts and Brett Cullen as Goodwin auto and PW5 Hurley's shirt.

I opened a premium pack.

Military Propoganda & Poster Trading Cards.

Made by Cult - Stuff.

Pack # 788 / 1000

I got the gauranteed base set of 36 cards.

Chase cards, MW1, B1/4, B2/4, both UK version.

I also got a cloth version of base card # 29.

I also got M1 which is a card with a little plastic folder attached to the front of it which contains a relic from the war years. In my case it was a Genuine German stamp with a picture of Adolph Hitler on it.

The base set is superb and right up there with the high standard that Cult - Stuff has set for all it's products.

The cloth card is simply superb, a picture would not do it justice and the stamp is a great keepsake, who knows, Hitler may have touched this very stamp himself, i know it's a bit of a longshot but nobody can say that he did not.

Overall really pleased with these. Anyone who has any intrest in the war or military should really go out and buy these.

Here are the results of my first box break of the year - Ghost Whisperer Season 3 and 4.

- one complete base set, several doubles and triples
- Q5 & Q6 Quotes cards
- T6 & T7 Trivia cards
- CP7 & CP8 Puzzle cards

Costume cards:
- C15 Jamie Kennedy
- C16 Christoph Sanders

Prop card
- P6 Transparent Mask



Happy OTB Day!

Okay, I had 2 boxes of Marvel Greatest Heroes left over from a group buy I organised. Here's the sketches:



I also finished off my spare set of IAM chase cards, so a good break and a great excuse to open stuff

Cult Stuff does do really interesting things with their card sets. I got one of their mystery packs which had a cloth card in it. The 'odd' formats really works well with the subject matter of their cards.

This year for Open that Box Day 2012 my 10 and 7 year old wanted to help open my box of Wacky Packages Old School Series 3.


First we started out with a hearty breakfast of Dad’s Pancakes.


Than we posed for a picture. (Daddy forgot to comb his hair!)


We opened the packs


Finished the puzzle


Sorted everything into piles



Got this Sketch



The girls got bored so daddy finished up.
The Results:
One Box of 24 packs
One Sketch by Mark Parisi
One Poster
2 and 2/3 checklists puzzles
One Main Set of 33 Tan Back Stickers
19 of 33 White Back Stickers
15 of 33 Ludlow Back Stickers
14 of 16 Tan Back Wacky 1967 Wackys Subset
5 of 16 White Back Wacky 1967 Wackys Subset
9 of 16 Ludlow Back Wacky 1967 Wackys Subset

Awesome posts so far!!!

I got an entry today from a non-member and I thought I'd post it as I do every year for him:

Comments: It's Here!!
Another year passes, but it's here - Open That Box Day!!
...the perfect way to revitalize your favorite hobby!
This time I opened up a box of my absolute favorite show: The Wallking Dead, and I'm happy to have a full set, with autographs, to show to my friends, family, co-workers, and everyone else I've been trying to recruit into watching (and now they might all want to collect cards too...)
Brilliant! ...and I'm back in the mood & mode to keep buying, trading, building, & growing my collection - Thanks again, NSU - you continue to be the lifeline to all of our favorite pastimes!

well my open that box day has started out blahh

and try to put away everything I got at the Philly show

might open some more boxes this evening
- Vampirella and Red Sonja

My box was Battlestar Galactica Season 4

I got all the appropriate chase cards and the following:

Stephanie Jacobsen autograph (Limited)(but I already had it)
Colin Lawrence as "Skulls" (didn't have that)
Double Costume card Doral - DC15 (have it)
