Opened 2 more boxes I recieved from the US this morning, and I got...
PW1 - Mals Shirt (Variant with stitching! ) PW3 - Jayne's T-Shirt A7 - Summer Glau as River A8 - Sean Maher as Simon
It seems that the Jayne T-Shirt also has a 'dirty' variant if you look at the pic used on the card its around the collar and patches around the shirt. I noticed that mine had a couple of speckles of something on it.

Received my 2 boxes & the binder today.
Haven't looked at base cards yet - waiting to see the movie first.
Promo for action figures - DST-1 x2 box loaders - BL1, BL2 Renegades - 7 of the 9 missing A3 & A8 Women of Serenity - W3, W4 x2, W5 Pieceworks - PW5 Jewel Staite (Kaylee) shirt, PW8 Chiwetel Ejiofor (the Operative) t-shirt Autos - Gina Torres (A2) & Chiwetel Ejiofor (redemption card).
Waiting for Book auto and Kaylee, Jayne & Inanra pieceworks from auctions. Received a mini-master today (including Case card) so need most of the autos and half of the pieceworks.
BL3 DST-1 R5,R6, R7 WS1, WS5 PW4-Wash(white/green/black) A9- BOOK
Overall, not bad pulls for 5 boxes(1st box posted previously). I got a complete minimaster, 5 different autos, the only negative is 3 Kaylee pieceworks. I'll trade my extras once I get my list ready in the trading post. Going for my first master set.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Scorpiovamp, September 28, 2005 10:21 PM

Here's the results from my case (got 1 case card plus a DST1 card in each box):
Summary: Case Loader card (edge bent) and 12 DST1 cards (many damaged) Box Loaders: 3 sets plus BL2 (all BL cards damaged except one) Women of Serenity: 4 Sets plus WS1 Renegades Puzzle: 3 sets plus R1, R2, R6, R7, R8, R9 Pieceworks: Complete Set plus PW4 (Wash's shirt -- I'll keep both since I like both Wash PW cards) & PW1 (Mal's Shirt) Autographs: Complete Set Base Sets: 16; but, I have about 50 or so cards to send back due to damage; so, there will probably be more sets.
Overall, the cards were in much, much better shape quality-wise than Men of Sunnydale. I have several to send back; but, Inkworks has always been super about exchanging cards. There was none of the incorrect printing/cutting problems in this set that I experienced with Men of Sunnydale.

Congrats to you guys! This seems to be a wonderfully collated product on the case level, since several have made masters from their cases.
Thanks to Inkworks!

angelchick182 is correct. It was great to get a master set from one case. I was very pleased! Also, the cards are really nice (as usual). I especially like the Jayne and Wash PW cards. And, the Women of Serenity cards were a nice surprise.
I can't wait for the LOST cards!!!

Is it just me or are the prices on Ebay for this set higher than one would expect? It must be due to how all the autos/pieceworks are pretty much main cast only. I usually buy 1 box and than Ebay the rest over time. This set seems to be a bit difficult to do that with however. Hopefully if I just shelf it for now the prices will come down.

The show had a pretty solid fan base which is willing to spend $ on show related products (the DVD sales are the reason the movie got made) and as you mentiona all the signers are original main cast members. If the movie does fairly well expect the prices to possibly go up as new fans might start picking up cards. The price range for the autos is pretty tight, 3 or 4 regularly top $50 and occasionally $60 but even the lesser autos seem to be in the $20-$25 range, I still haven't picked up a Zoe or Operative auto yet because I haven't caught one slipping through cheap yet (I did get a Wash and Shepherd for a combined $38 though , patience is rewarded ). 7 autos down, 3 to go.

I bought a box today for £35 from collectormania, breakdown:
BL2 WS1&2 R1.8&9 A8-Sean Maher PW6-Inara ( was abit disappointed in this one, at first i thought it was a Kayless one, because Inara you can only just see her and her pants the material is from.)

Finally got around to scanning my recent additions.
I also got a good look at the shirt used for the Jayne pieceworks, it has what appears to be chinese letters/symbols in black with some parts of the surrounding area in blue, green, red and yellow and the right shoulder has some black patterning which is where I think mine came from.

When I saw Serenity, I saw the shirt that you were referring to and thought the same thing. Later in the movie, Jayne wore the fish skeleton shirt and I just wasn't sure which shirt was used for our PW cards.
My card is dark yellow in the background with a lot of black squiggly lines. It could be from either shirt; but, Andy posted something recently saying that it was the shirt with fish skeletons.
