Triple-FrogHopefully the case breaks for this release are the start of a shift in philosophy by Rittenhouse.I love their products but I stopped buying cases a few years ago because I never came close to completing a master set from a case.
I always found myself about 8-10 cards short,usually the more expensive cards.This was particular;y true of the Star Trek releases.It was just cheaper to buy a master set off Ebay or at a show.
I miss the fun of busting a case although I don't miss collating all those base sets that then sit around the house for years gathering dust until I either give them away or throw them away.
Wish I could afford a case.
