Has anyone pulled a variant on the bomb sack that is the yellow or red stripe?. Out of my boxes I've pulled 4 bomb sacks 1 solid green piece, 2 with the brass button and 1 solid red piece. I've looked at the picture and there can't be very many.
I'll post more later

hammerNice looking cards and with the base set looking difficult to complete, PERHAPS this will give it a better long term value

Hey Rich,
With regard to the bomb-sack cards, looking at how many are flying out of boxes I'd guess RA were given quite afew of these to cut to pieces. Sure the brass button, yellow, and red variants will be scarcer but not that small in number overall.

That makes sense- when you think of the scene in question from Daylights, there appears to be plenty of sacks available.

SzymJust a quick note to say that in my third box, I pulled a RC13 which seems to be the hardest one to pull

.
I'll post a full breakdown when my 2 cases are open.

RajI've opened 2 boxes out of my case and it looks like it's going to take a while to figure out where the unnumbered cards go. I tried to sort one box and left it to open the 2nd box.
Chase so far

RC7 - Sir Robert King Bank Statement (loads of Peseta)

ThushGood work on the case card. Any chance of a pic of it? Not seen one with blood on it.

Over_Worked_MomThe poster cards start with Dr. No for card #5 and go up in 9's, so that From Russia's movie poster would be card #14, and so on. My math is horrific, but I've tried to list them below to aid in set collation. Do I get a gold star (she says totally tongue in cheek!) ??

THX2112I honestly couldn't be happier with this set. First time I'd purchased a case of Bond and I'm very pleased that I did. As I posted on "Open That Box Day", I was looking forward to setting aside my final box from this case to open on "OTB" day 2008. As you can see, I gathered some steam at the end and opened my final box. Pretty glad I did!!!

igman7Here is the breakdown on a case that I broke a few nights ago. I posted it on the news/rumors string in error....what do you want for a newbie?!
Box 1 Osato Stationary / John Bowe
Box 2 Grenade Sack / George Leech
Box 3 Playing Card / Britt Ekland
Box 4 Grenade Sack (red) / Simon Abkarian
Box 5 Jinx Medical File / Sebastian Foucan
Box 6 San Monique Flag / Kristina Wayborn
Box 7 Zorin Patch / Giancarlo Giannini
Box 8 Sir Robert King Bank Statemnt/Maud Adams
Box 9 Jinx Medical File / Alan Cumming
Box 10 Zorin Patch / Giancarlo Giannini
Box 11 Circus Program / Timothy Moxon
Box 12 Tarot Card / Ursula Andress
Case topper with a decent amount of "blood".
All in all, a nice case. I could have done without the deja vu box (same relic AND auto as a previous box), but that's the breaks!

Overall, the second box was pretty awesome and I feel made up for the bummer first box, with the duplicate dangerous liaisons card and an "eh" auto card. Overall, I did get an auto that I wanted (the Giancarlo) as well as an awesome relic card, which I totally didn't expect- I was hoping for a Casino Royale relic like one of the playing cards, definitely not a Very Limited one!
