So they created a more generic format that they could print immediately and get to the actors to sign.
I get the WHY, I just am not a fan of the result. Not having the cards match bothers my OCD.

It just (star) struck me, why didn't they just get Balfe to sign a Season One design autograph card to fill in that gap? I really like that autograph design and I hope they get her to sign one before they're through. |

Crypto seem to be a lot less keen on retrospectively filling in gaps like that in future sets, than say Rittenhouse are. I can only recall them doing it once, with David Labrava in Sons of Anarchy, and I expect that was only because his cards were late coming back, rather than getting him to sign an old style card later on. |

There was an issue when they test ran a case. The boxes with a dual wardrobe did not get a full base set. So, they adjusted some of the inserts to accommodate more base cards. They figured correctly that people expect a full set out of a box, although they never actually go out and guarantee it. Ed |
