What are your favorite varient cards?

Just used buy it now to get this new variant card. The auction description states that this will be the card I will receive:

Apart from the blood on the shirt there's a mark on the pants as well.

Most excellent pick up AJJ! THREE variations on one card is totally awesome!!!

I wish I had seen that...

I bought an numbering error card from that set just for the curiosity since I prefer the swatch variants.

Thanks Redemption. I found it by complete chance when I had a look in the dealers Ebay store after I bought a Christina Cole auto card from him.

I wasn't to sure if the jacket swatch counted as a variant.

I'd count it... but then again I see variants around every corner.

Here's my new favorite card.

This Pieceworks card from Lost Season Two has the wrong fabric swatch. Instead of Charlie's tan tshirt, this card has a swatch of Sawyer's black shirt. I love this card! Have you seen many other examples of costume/pieceworks cards with the wrong material?

Super nice... someone way in the backlog of this thread posted several error cards like that, but I don't know if the links are still active.

A while ago I broke open a box of Heroes Season 1 and got an Izzac costume card. Some of the material is missing (manufacturers mistake)

Heres a pic.

This is probably a legit variant. If you watched the first season of Heroes, every now and then you could see the painters smock had holes in it.
