Nope,that makes perfect sense.With Spartacus I just bought the autograph cards I wanted off various dealers or Ebay and never bothered with any of the other cards.IMO this is a halfway house that misses both targets of those that want just the premium cards and those that want a base set but don't want a lot of duplicate cards. Credit to Rittenhouse for trying something different but I prefer either the Breygent or 5Finity models. | |||

I understand the need to try new things but I wish that RA had offered two different types of packs for this (and WH 13 Season 2). One with a $20-$25 price point that would be the complete base set and a costume card or insert. Another at $30 which would be an autograph card, costume card and insert. I could live with paying $20-$25 for a base set (assuming it's at least 50 cards) but I'm not paying $25 or more for a pack when I don't collect autograph or costume cards. ____________________ Twitter = L_Inglis_artist Facebook = LauraInglis7 http://laurainglisillustration.com | |||

I would be happy if there were a limited amount of unnumbered base sets available at $20/25. | |||

I think that the premium pack idea is a good one, but it really has taken the base set in the opposite direction -- instead of a $3 base set, it's literally $3 a card. I tried to pick up the holes in my SGU set at Comic Con, but I sure can't afford to do it when I need 12 cards, and trading is pretty much impossible. If Rittenhouse would increase the number of base cards to 4 or 5 per pack, it would definitely be better for collectors who can only afford to pick up a few packs and grab a few extras on eBay or at a random convention. I certainly don't envy Rittenhouse -- other than a few hundred core collectors, who even wants base sets? I mean, I would probably be considered a pretty hardcore collector, and I rarely flip through any of my base sets unless they are Star Trek or Stargate. I was planning on picking up a couple of packs of Eureka, but I have hit some pretty severe money problems so I will be forced to skip it (and probably anything else for the forseeable future). Normally I would pick up a base set, but it will just be too expensive. Hopefully I can just scrape together the money and pick up an autograph from Neil Grayston or Colin Ferguson. ____________________ "For a universe that's supposed to be half Chinese, Firefly sure doesn't have any Asians." -- The Uncomfortable Truths Well | |||
