Maybe they got a sneek peek at the movie.

Oh well, hope you'll all read my bit in New and Noteworthy about this set anyway. This is the second time I've written about a set for NSU and it was cancelled before the article came out.

Very good of you to own up, at least we know who to blame.

Hahahaha! Ouch! :-P

I am still bummed out about Pacific Rim being cancelled. Would have been a very cool set.

That's a shame, I was hoping I could pick up a Ben Foster autograph for my X-Men collection.

It's a shame movies don't get many cards these days outside of the handful of major franchises.

I can see why it gets difficult to produce even a simple base set, though.

Not so fast

...Topps has 1-card (1-hit) packs of this now available on their site for $15. Hits include single, dual, and triple autographs, costume and prop relic cards, autographed costume and relic cards, sketch cards, and (the dreaded) patch cards. Packs will only have 1 card. There are no base cards, only hits.

Good Grief!

With the exception of Ben Foster, I don't know a soul.

Should I?

Was able to pick up 4 signed cards numbered to 25 for about 50 bucks.

Ben Foster
Anna Galvin
Burkely Duffield
Ryan Robbins

They all seem to have a decent IMDB presence. I thought Ben was great in 3:10 to Yuma.

Nice! I think you got all the main autographs, but if you are looking for an adventure you can get packs of these for $5 now. I picked up some when they first went on sale and was happy with my pulls.

That said if you are thinking about buying packs the collation is really wonky, and it is really easy to tell the patch packs from the autograph/sketch packs.

All the autographs from this are pretty easy to get cheap. So are some sketches.

I was initially interested, then the movie came out and sucked so bad, I couldn't be bothered anymore. I'll wait for Ben Foster, Adam Kazinsky and Terry Notary, to sign for something good.

I thought the set design was really nice though, especially the costumes.

Of course the risk is if they ever are part of something for a card set again.

These are cheap enough that I can fantasize that one of them will have a monster breakout moment in their career and then these cards will quickly disappear and then BOOM! Crazy Uber value!!

Strangely nothing about the film drew my interest. Game related stuff seems to have issues in the translation to an enjoyable movie.

Not sure I would be interested in more that just a few signatures. Where are they still selling this stuff? Topps?

Seems like Blowout bought Topps out of these.
