Yes, nice pulls! Especially that sketch card! That Houseman guy's really good Just kidding! Can I ask what color the border was on your sketch? I did 8 yellow, 8 blue, 8 purple, and only 1-2 of the black and red... Just curious Excited to see what collectors pulled! ____________________ "I calculated the odds of this succeeding versus the odds I was doing something incredibly stupid... and I went ahead anyway." - Crow T.

I finally was able to buy a box of this product and here is what I received: The Death Song sketch card by Mike Lilly Creature From the Black Lagoon: 1C 2C Invasion of the Body Snatchers: P3A P3B Day The Earth Stood Still: P2B 2001: A Space Odysse: P1B 1 Complete Base Set 2nd Base Set 1 card short (10) 19 Extra Cards Mummy box card Breygent should get plenty of praise for thinking outside the box on this set. The oversized cards are perfect for this collection. The combination of autographs and sketches along with some nice inserts gives the collector a great deal of bang for their buck. My only beef with this with set is what posters were selected, in other words what was or wasn't included in this set. It seems rather hit or miss, as we start with Metropolis (1927) and barely hit any movies from the 30's or 40's, which is considered the Golden Era of horror movies. We have a nice block of posters representing films from the 50's and then a smattering of posters from the 60's. We even have two flicks from the 70's, which makes me wonder what the criteria was for being included in this set? All in all I love this set and will definitely be buying the binder. Hopefully many of the more famous movies that were excluded from this set will be in a follow-up release, which I would definitely buy! | |||

I Picked up a box of this at a recent national show in London. I planned to keep it for OTBday but gave in last monday an cracked the baby open. This is an awesome set and Breygent as a manufacturer has risen in my estimation to the #2 spot in the card makers top ten. I pulled 1 full base aet and these chase cards Creature from the Black lagoon cards 4,5 & 6C 2001 A space Odyssey P1B day the earth stood still P2B Invasion of the body snatchers P3B Dana Wynter Auto card DWAC and Flying Discman from Mars sketch card by Travis walton. UI have also found a Binder and missing chase cards on eBay which should arrive soon. An amazing set and I now [b] NEED [/] to find a box of the Hollywood poster cards. I find myself wishing the Bregent would get the Star Trek & Bond franchises. ____________________ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If faced with a difficult choice/decision, Remember this - WWKD. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Never give up - NEVER surrender | |||

The first box had this great Chris Henderson sketch: The second box had ANOTHER great Chris Henderson sketch AND a Ray Harryhausen autograph card! Very happy to get my first 2 sketches from Chris Henderson! Not to mention my first auto from this series! Greg ____________________ Please note the updated email address in my profile! | |||

After buying 4 boxes of these, I ended up with a whole bunch of base sets, 1 full chase set and lots of doubles. I received the 4 sketches as advertised and one autograph card. Here's my sketches for those who'd like to see them. DELIZ Persampieri KONG kong All of them extremely cool, methinks! The artists really took advantage of the larger space to give the cards fantastic detail and they didn't spare the colors either. On the ones by Brian Kong, the color bled all the way through to the back, which I love. And I'm really glad to have a Renae De Liz, who always impresses. This is another great offering from Breygent and those who haven't got a box yet, don't wait too long, since the boxes definitely won't last forever. (And check the box breakdowns of Breygent's new "Celebrity Movie Posters" set to see my sketches from that awesome series, which in addition to teriffic original art cards, boasts one of the finest base sets ever issued!) ____________________ Everywhere around this burg they're running out of verbs, adverbs, and adjectives.
