Breaking Bad & American Horror Story

[Sublime]

Anyone able to help me out with some information on these 2 upcoming releases?

I'm usually strictly a basketball collector, so i'm new to movie cards. Anyone know where i can get hold of a presale for either of these releases (if they're available yet??). I'm super keen to possibly secure a case of at least one (if not both).

Any help would be fantastic and steering me towards some good sellers of this product would help even more!

Bit early yet, don't think full details have been released ans as their still finding signers, the set make up probably isn't complete yet.

Dave and Adams are your best bet for pre-sales and hearing of a release date etc... That and following the Cryptozoic etc on facebook or twitter...

Warren and I had received some very early info on these sets from our supplier. I will make inquiries to see whether our supplier will be looking at these sets.

Thanks for the info! Very helpful.

I located a presale for the American Horror Story for boxes and cases, and a presale for Breaking Bad for boxes only. Solarfly cards, i've not heard of them though, but at least it shows that the stuff is moving along i suppose. Prefer to buy locally if at all possible though.

Very disappointed with the autograph list for Breaking Bad. Guess i will just have to get all the prop cards

Lucky i bought this

I wouldn't get too worried about Breaking Bad yet - it is still months away from release and Cryptozoic still have a dozen or so products ahead of BB on their schedule.

Well here's hoping they're adding to their signers list in the meantime! From what i've read this will probably be the only BB card release to be done so you'd hope they have the whole shebang.

yeah terrible list so far, hopefully they can get a few of the main cast otherwise i probably wont touch the set.

With the lack of star signers and the fact that the series is over and interest likely waning, I kind of wonder if this set is shaping up to be a huge fizzer - if it even ever happens ????

your probably right, if they don't get the main cast now, it wont happen at all. anyway fingers crossed and hope for the best, i know what you mean though, i got so excited when rittenhouse did NCIS and then i saw the signers list and didnt even touch the set.

I find it hard to believe that the companies can't convince the name stars to sign at least some cards - say the main NCIS stars signed only 50 cards each, that's still another 250 or so cards and something for people to chase, knowing they at least have a chance. Heck get them all to sign just 25 each in a coffee break during shooting and the product just got a whole lot more viable to buy, chase and collect!!

Especially with Breaking Bad, Aaron Paul is ALWAYS so accommodating with his fans, i find it hard to believe he wouldn't be down for something like this. Perhaps they're keeping it for a big final press release to really give it a shove and get it off the shelves. Can only hope i spose.

Their policy remains that Redemption Cards will not be inserted for autograph signers who are not available by the pack-out deadline.

I wonder how many wardrobe cards will be in the set. That's all that interests me

 

[Sublime]

Wow, the list of signers sure is underwhelming

Yeah big time. I hope the wardrobe cards make up for it.
