Oh, and one more thing... if you plan on listing this card on an auction site for $300+, please have a clue at to WHAT Star Wars film the Ewoks were in.
If you don't know, you shouldn't be allowed to even have the card in the first place.

webjonMaybe that's why the card is so expensive -- the rarely seen Empire Strikes Back Ewok!!
The funny thing is that the cards came with a COA that says ROTJ right on it. . .

mintoncardSorry to bring up a sore subject. Alas, I don't have one either. But have no fear! This afternoon I'll be shaving my cat and making my own custom EWOK cards. How do like that!
I'll just say, "Those are "authentic" dead fleas in the fur. They came right off of Lucas' beard! I swear!". No one will ever know. :P

Flag City CollectiblesHarris,
Just checking to see if any copies of the variant issue made it back to your store alive? I did not end up making it because of more medical issues with my daughter

. I missed out ordering one online prior and did not make. Just wishful thinking

but if there is a copy left I would absolutely love to purchase one!
Kind Regards,
John

It's more than just a little tempting. I wonder if the card will have any depth, i.e. at what price will it sell after the current batch of open auctions end? I have an NSU pricing question for you. Let's assume that the open auctions sell at an average of $150.00 and let's also assume that it is time for the latest prices to be submitted to NSU for the next issue. Would you rather see the $150 average calculated on the last 8 or sales or would you rather see an average of around $230.00 - $250.00 by our factoring in the prices paid by early adaptors? I know what I would prefer. I think that I know what the sellers would prefer but how about the collector looking to buy one at a fair price?

wolfieI thought i had banned all talk of this card.

To think that NSU did not ensure that a wolf of my standing and eminant position did not get one of these is one of the biggest disgraces in the history of non-sports collecting.
