I remain a big Buffy fan. I'll get into these, but it looks like these will be hard to put a set together and very expensive.

Don, I agree that this will be a tough set to put together.

I had hoped they might do the Mega Boxes for this one, to get a little more into a box.

Not a huge fan of the 2 pack box format. But it seems to work at retail. Just wish there was a little more budget friendly option for those trying to get a set put together.

Very expensive, indeed. Especially considering there are no relic, costume, or autograph cards.

Looks like it will be tough just to make a base set of 100 cards.

Product seems to be out, early impressions posted are not great. Looks like you are not making that base set because of the card dilution. You can't make a card product with no "hits" unless its fan based and cheap. Parallels won't fill the void to elevate to a higher level. It just leaves more holes.

Buffy was well covered by Inkworks when it was on and everyone who wanted the cards has them already. Hard to see where the demand is for this unless you do something better.

As stated above, I had to try these and I got 4 boxes. Got 4 Nemesis chase, (3 different), several holochrome cards, 1 numbered.
Cards are nice, but don't have any foil enhancement. Base set tells complete story of Buffy 7 seasons, but images on front seldom have anything to do with text on back. Glad I tried 'em but will not pursue a set.
