i was pretty happy with these. all up for trade. and if you live in chicago area...lemont,IL target had tonof these

I went to two Targets. The first one didn't have any. The second one had two packs. So I bought one.

I bought 3 more packs on my way out Bakersfield this afternoon:

Pack 1 -

Auto: Alias A33 (Gina Torres)

Popcardz - Jessica Alba material card, Jared Leto gold parallel
Americana - nothing special


Pack 2 -

Auto: Smallville Season 2 A11 (John Glover)

Popcardz - Jessica Biel material card, Cole Sprouse gold parallel
Americana - nothing special


Pack 3 -

Auto: Supernatural A-12 (Alona Tal)

Popcardz - Megan Fox and Giovanni Ribisi gold parallels
Americana - nothing special

pretty decent pulls, and at least this time the autos were from three diff sets!

My Target restock these thing so I had to grab another- Here is what I got, added both to my trade list, but I'm liking what I pulled.---Michele

As my Inkworks auto want list is rather small and I don’t collect the other two sets, I’m not exactly sure what compelled me to buy these. It can probably best be explained as a combination of curiosity, poor impulse control, and a yearning to bust some packs.

Pack 1:
Smallville Season 2 – A8 Sam Jones III as Pete Ross
Americana II – #102 Christina Applegate silver proof 246/500
PopCardz – #14 Molly Sims memorabilia card

Pack 2:
Angel Season 5 – A38 Marc Vann as Dr. Sparrow
Americana II – TS-LN Lorraine Newman 338/500
PopCardz – nothing

Pack 3:
The 4400 Season 1 – A5 Laura Allen as Lily Moore
Americana II – RK-TG Tyson Griffin auto 215/500
PopCardz – #18 Mandy Moore gold parallel

Nothing I collect, but it was fun! I was surprised by the quality of the PopCardz - they are very well done. I might have to finish the base set.

Hi, send me an email of what singles you need for the PopCardz and your address I can probably help you out with a bunch. My email is in my profile. Also let me know if you want to trade the 4400 A5 auto, I can use that one.

Like I posted before, these things are like having a crack addiction.

I dropped mucho moolah in one day and then wondered what compelled me to buy these packs!!

Yes, I am very stupid

Anyone wanting free PopCardz or Americana Donruss I and II commons can have as many as they want as long as they cover shipping.

I bit the bullet & bought 1 of these things.

Greg

My Target has had three packs of these hanging there for weeks. So I figured, what's the worst thing that could happen? Another McNulty?

So - from my pack I got:
Popcardz - 14 base cards, 1 gold card
Americana - 12 Base cards, 1 TV Star (142/500)
2 high Numbers

Autograph - Carl Lumbly as Marcus Dixon, Alias

It was a good find, I like this character, and I collect Alias.

Now, there are still 2 Memorabilia Packs left... hmmmm....

I opened a pack yesterday, courtesy of Don Norton (thanks again Don!) for the next episode of the podcast. I won't spoil the surprise by posting what I found yet, but I WILL say that Don's McNulty run was broken...
Au Res.,
Paul

Well done on that pull, Don! The Lumbly is a good card...
Au Res.,
Paul

Thanks Paul. The Lumbly is listed as only $20 in the Non Sport Encyclopedia, but to me it is worth more - he is a major character in the series.
Everyone will have to wait to find out what was in your pack, but it should be a fun Podcast.
